{ artistic hair }

Artistic Hair is an awesome salon in Orange with the funnest group of stylists. Barbara, the owner, who does my best friend's mom's hair (you got that?), saw a bridal session I did of Becky (my best friend's sister) and hired me to do the salon's group photo. I never knew a single setting of a gray backdrop and one bench could be so fun! Here are few of my favorites from the day:

Barbara, you and everyone at the salon were so fun to work with. I really can't wait for our portrait party in September!

{ my babies }

My poor, neglected blog...I've been so so so busy since my last post. A wedding, newborn session, group photo at a hair salon, family session....I'm very lucky :-) I'll be posting all those photos soon.

But for now, here are some photos of my not-so-small-anymore babies. As some of you know I've been a nanny for these kids since they were babies (5 years!). They're getting so big! Aren't they beautiful kids? For the most part they're pretty sick of me photographing them, but for some strange reason they gave in recently. I love natural window light, it's definitely my favorite...

Zane: 

Parker Grace:

And finally, Seth:

I'd have photographed the other 2 boys I take care of, but they hacked off each other's hair just a few days before...not at their photogenic best. LOL. Ahhh, kids.
