Haven’t shown my babies in a while….here is the Jake sporting his oh-so-stylish bed head look! Seriously – he usually looks all cute and surfer-kid – but this crazy hair just had to be permanently recorded! Harvey (a very loved member of our household) has a bit of a hair (fur?!?) issue too….

I love these guys! This is my third year photographing them – it is so much fun to watch my *little friends* grow up…

Then we headed out to the beach in Santa Monica for a little stroll…

I was loving the flare!

I had some fun playing with different textures – I have more of a *clean and clear* style but this is a rather popular trend that I haven’t dabbled in much and it was FUN!

…i know, i know…i am HORRENDOUSLY behind on posting on the blog!! right now is my crazy-busy time of year – i’ve been focused more on getting everyone’s photos proofed, ordered and back to them! BUT – I am turning over a new leaf and issuing a PROCLAMATION: (my buddy Lisa *loves* it when I make proclamations!)
I, Jennifer Wilson, do hereby declare that I will post on my blog EVERY day for the next 21 days! If (and it won’t happen so just forget it!) I should somehow FAIL in my mission – please feel free to call me out in the comment box here on the blog. I will give some sort of super-duper prize to the person who calls me out on it!
….and now on to some long-awaited photos@! Here are some of the cuties I photographed in las Vegas this fall…

aren’t they sweet? 5 months can be a tough age to photograph, since babies aren’t yet sitting on their own….but we had so many cute shots of these two!

ha! I meant for this sneak peek to be one or two photos…. But – how to choose? I LOVE so many images from this session – and 5 minutes into it it looked like it would be a disaster! Seriously, we hadn’t been there 5 minutes when one of those adorable little girls face-planted into a wave! Luckily, she was a trooper and the whole family were great sports – so we just carried on…and I am SO glad! We laughed a lot, splashed a lot – and had a heck of a good time :)

It was such a joy to photograph SO MANY cute kids last week at Pottery Barn Kids! I am such a natural light photographer usually – so it is fun to break out the studio lights a few times a year! These are such classic kids portraits – I hope all the parents love them as much as I do! I love how their little personalities shine through…
Stay tuned for a couple of mini-session dates to be added in October and November… I’ll post more details on the blog tomorrow! I only have one more regular session available in October and only a handful in November, so hoping the mini-sessions will be a way to be able to shoot everyone! I felt so awful last year when I had to turn folks away:(

Time to post some photos! My poor blog has been neglected as I have been trying to get caught up on proofing a gazillion sessions! I am about to have a blogapaloooza weekend and post LOTS of sneak peeks – so stay tuned!!
First up is Jennafer’s (yes – that IS the way she spells it!) gorgeous family! I know, I know – she doesn’t look old enough to be the mom of all four of these beautiful girls! We had a great time – each girl is just as sweet as she is beautiful and the little ones had SO MUCH FUN splashing in the waves – they were truly a joy to photograph!
The black and white photo of those sweet eyelashes and freckles has moved to the the very tip top of my *current faves* list! I **heart** freckles….

How adorable are these two little boys??? I photographed Tucker when he turned one – now it was little brother Brody’s turn! They are just the perfect picture of quintessential California beach boys – so so so cute!!!

I have been meaning to post photos of these gorgeous gallery wrap canvas products – I love these so much! My favortite part about them is they are ready to take home and hang on your wall- no framing required! Plus, I just ADORE the way they look :)
Here are a few photos (with, of course, my customary disclaimer that I have NO future in product photography!)
(haha – and see how I snuck a gratuitous photo of my little models in there!- love them!)
