Tangled 1st Birthday | Lake Elsinore Cake Smash Photographer

February 24, 2023

I had so much fun setting up for little beauty Camila’s 1st birthday cake smash session! Her upcoming birthday party will be a Tangled theme, so I wanted to incorporate some beautiful gold and lavender colors by making a balloon garland. Her momma wanted some family and parent shots, so we started off with some family photos, then got some sweet shots of little Camila showing off her pretty dress. She wasn’t very sure about her cake or the strange lady pointing a camera at her 🙂 but I hope she will have a blast celebrating her big day next week! I love personalizing each baby’s session according to their own personality and whatever parents would like to highlight their little one. First birthday sessions can include a cake (also known as a smash cake session or cake smash session) plus baby bath shots at the end (I have a few baby-sized tubs that are absolutely adorable), making these sweet sessions extra fun!

Babies only ever have ONE first birthday — make it extra special by scheduling a session with me! If you’re looking for a Lake Elsinore cake smash photographer or a baby photographer around the area, check out the session options I offer and contact me to discuss your baby’s photos. I love meeting families from all over Southern California including Temecula, Murrieta, Menifee (where I’m located), Lake Elsinore, Riverside, and beyond — and I hope to meet you too!

Happy Valentine’s Day | Newborn Photographer in Menifee

February 14, 2023

Happy Valentine’s Day! Just popping in to spread some love from gorgeous little Kamila’s session! Kamila was just over 2 weeks old when she came in for her photoshoot, and she was A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. She and her 2 year old big sister Gabriella couldn’t have been more cooperative…and let’s be honest…2 year olds are usually the trickiest age to photograph! I loved meeting this beautiful family and I have so many favorites, I just had to load them all into this post.

Oh. My. Goodness. Camryn is such a doll!! I absolutely LOVED her hair and she is as cute as it gets! Getting to photograph Camryn and her family was such a treat! December was full of 2-3 month old cuties, not an age I get to typically photograph very often, and they were all so adorable.
