Kate's Maternity session Temecula Maternity Photography

So, i had the hardest time choosing images for this blog post! i actually shot this session just last night (and im already done with them- hooray! i LOVE being caught up on editing!)- and CLEARLY this couple isnt photogenic AT ALL. holy smokes! Kate and her sweet husband were smokin, and all around ridiculous cute and excited about their soon to be baby boy.

  We started shooting at some of my favorite spots in old town temecula, and then headed to my very favorite field off the 79. gorgeous light, gorgeous couple, gorgeous images! hope you love them, kate! cant wait to meet your sweet baby B in about 7 weeks!!

 

joie de vivre!!

technically, this was my 4th wedding so far this year, but this was the first one in official wedding season! i LOVE wedding season! pretty flowers, gorgeous brides, happy families, whats not to like!

Alexa & Matt were married in the San Diego LDS Temple in the morning, then had an intimate luncheon for their family and friends in Rancho Bernardo. I have known this girl for her entire life! I even have this cute pic of her at my wedding reception (she was like 9 years old!) dancin on the dance floor. I cant believe how grown up she is!

sweet baby H

What a sweet little angel! This little girlie, only 7 days old, did NOT want to close her tiny little eyes. There was just too much goin on to take a nap, I guess! daddy was out of town for a work trip, so i got some simple and sweet shots with momma as well. :)

Notwithstanding, I just could not get enough of her. What a doll!!

joie de vivre!
