rock star maternity and newborn shoot | Los Angeles California baby photographer

Meet baby *R* -just 10 days old, this little man is such a precious little bundle of love. Pretty darned cute, isn’t he? BUT, if you want to see more, first you have to look at some of the layouts from the AWESOME maternity session I had with his beautiful mommy-to-be! (and you too Daddy!)

Now, when you walk in a home and see a gazillion guitars and totally rad posters on the wall – you know its not going to be your *ordinary, run-of-the-mill* maternity session – and it certainly wasn’t! These two were so fun, so *think-outside-of-the box* and best of all, SO in love with one another and looking forward to the birth of their first baby. I knew I had stumbled into something special! Here are a few of the two-page spreads I designed for them…..

Okay, okay, not that you’ve had your fill of rock-star-maternity eye candy – I’ll let you peek a little more at this beautiful little man!

A little fun with mirrors…

photo session in Central Park! LA children’s photographer Jennifer Wilson visits New York City…

I **heart** NY! I feel lucky that I was able to manage a work/play trip earlier this summer – nothing could’ve made this California girl happier than having a client ask “would you be interested in flying to NYC to shoot a session in Central Park?” WOULD I? Heck yeah! I love my So Cal beaches, but boulders and lakes and SKYLINES?? Super cool! I put the word out that I was *coming to town* (and by the way, I will come back ANY time, so if you are reading this just say the word!) and soon had several sessions lined up. These two lovely ladies flew in from Pittsburgh and we had the best time traipsing all over Central Park. My *models* were amazing, they were up for anything, climbing trees, jumping off rocks and being absolutely adorable…

Social Media revolution

Just got back from our last summer getaway before school starts – had an interesting conversation with my brother-in-law regarding *Social Media* (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc..) Came home to find this link- I thought the stats shared were REALLY interesting – what do you think???

(Oh – and after watching, feel free to:

FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER
BECOME A FAN ON FACEBOOK

I’ll have some Facebook/Twitter specials coming out real soon!

And because no post is complete without a photo – here is a gratuitous shot of my baby girl and my niece from this weekend – catching a wave! These little monkeys are like two peas in a pod – they are two of the most adventurous *NO FEAR* little four-year-old kiddos around!

Leave a comment and tell me what you think! Have you embraced social media yet? I’m curious… (or you can just tell me how cute my little munchkins are!)

see how they’ve grown!! | Huntington Beach children’s photographer

Seems like I’ve been doing a lot of sessions down in Huntington Beach lately – take a peek at a recent fave!

I love watching my *little friends* grow up! I’ve been photographing this family since *J* was a baby, now she is starting school and little sis *A* isn’t quite so little anymore! They moved away to Las Vegas and I have missed seeing their little faces (and beautiful blue eyes!) We got all caught up quickly – jumping off the lifeguard stand, splashing through the waves….how much do I LOVE my job???!! LOOK HERE to see how they looked last time I saw them….and now take a look at what beautiful young ladies they are….

silly little girl flying up to the sky…

Paradise Cove | Malibu | beautiful family on the beach! | Malibu beach photographer Jennifer Wilson

I knew from the first email that I would love this family! They were out in Malibu, visiting from Las Vegas. (It’s funny, I shoot in Vegas several times a year, but this year it seems like a BUNCH of my Vegas peeps are coming to Cali! Yay!)

It was a beautiful day for a beach session at Paradise Cove – we had such a great time – lots of laughs…I hope you all love these photos as much as I do…..

Introducing baby Ava…. | San Clemente Orange County baby and child photographer

It seems like just the other day that we were here….

char115.jpg

….and now Riley’s new baby sister has arrive – introducing the beautiful Miss Ava…. (isn’t she stunning??)

char4.jpg

….but Mommy still has her little man – I LOVE LOVE LOVE their expressions in this series!

char2.jpg

I know, I know – you want to see that cute little grin a little closer….

char5.jpg

A LOT of Beanie Babies live at this house! When Riley was a munchkin, he frolicked in the basket with the babies, seemed only fair for Ava to have the same fun (or is it torture?? she doesn’t seem to mind!)

Until next time….I hope everyone out in Blogland has a safe and happy 4th!

the most adorable children ever….

I’m not biased or anything……..
