I’m booking sessions for Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays and will be running some spring specials soon (be sure to check my specials page on the website).  I will also be doing a mini-session sometime very soon.  If you are interested in a mini-session please let me know and I will add your name to the list!

And here are a couple of updated photos along with a link to a video clip…Noah is now 3 months old.  And I am now booking photo sessions in the South Orange County area.  If you are interested in a newborn photography sitting or family/child portrait I will be available again for shoots on Friday, Saturday, and Sundays.
