{Santa Barbara Baby Photos} Three Times the Fun
Imagine the fun in this house! I mean chaos.. I mean fun. Since this family of five gets asked a million questions every time they go out in public, I thought I would enlighten a few viewers for them. Yes, they are triplets. Yes they are all boys. Yes two are identical. And yes they are cute as a button. :-)

{Santa Barbara Family Vacation Photographer} A Trip to the Coast
Santa Barbara is really the perfect place for a getaway, full of sandy beaches, mountain views, great food and entertainment- it’s no wonder in the last couple of years I have photographed so many sweet families here for vacation, wanting a session when they are relaxed and in that coastal California mode. These three came from Sacramento for a whole week of fun and sun, and if I didn’t already live in Santa Barbara I sure would be jealous! It was the usual busy afternoon down on Cabrillo Boulevard but they took it in stride, even little “T” was as sweet as can be. And the icing on the cake was when a sea lion came by to check out their photo shoot at East Beach :-)
Please leave this beautiful family a little BLOG LOVE, every comment earns them a print credit!

{Santa Barbara SURF Family Photos} Catch a Wave
“Surfing, alone among sports, generates laughter at its very suggestion, and this is because it turns not a skill into an art, but an inexplicable and useless urge into a vital way of life.”
~Matt Warshaw
What a fun sneak peek I have to share with you today! When this family told me they wanted to incorporate some surfing images into their photo session, I was super excited and knew exactly the perfect Carpinteria spot to meet up at. These three boys were loads of fun, all very unique with different personalities that really show in these photos :-) Not only that, but didn’t Mom do a fabulous job with their outfits?? Now that is the way to dress for a quintessential Santa Barbara beach photo shoot! And a special shout out to my own Mom, who suggested using the watermelon.. It was a hit! ;-)
Please show this fantastic family of five some BLOG LOVE, every comment gets them a print credit!



Project 52 {Week 23} Home
I’ve been missing from our 52 week project for a bit (out for vacation) but back this week for the theme of Home. Nothing like a family vacation makes you appreciate your own walls :-) So here I share a few scenes from everyday life in our humble abode, with a (almost) willing four year old subject… okay not so willing lol
Make sure you do the “Home” rounds, starting with the fabulous Misty of Misty Setzler Photography, a Lubbock, TX Photographer
Love seeing everyone’s interpretation of the theme!

Project 52 {Week 11} Color!
As you probably know, I am participating in a weekly photo project with about 20 other fabulous photographers from all around the world, from The Bloom Forum. Some of the past themes include DOF, nature, texture, and food.
This week is one of my favorites- Color! We had to have a little indoor fun this time around- since we got about 84 inches of rain this week (exaggerating a little, but isn’t that what we Californians do the best, exaggerate about the weather?) anyways, I decided since it was just the Z man and me, I would combine my favorite color (aqua) with his favorite thing (sugar). Oh who am I kidding I totally had to bribe him with the cupcakes ;-)
Please next go visit Colorado Springs Photographer Shannon Derbique for some colorful eye candy!
