Southern California Maternity Photography :: Dianne

A few weeks ago, I was sent an email from a client wanting to gift a cousin with a maternity session. I had never met Dianne prior to the day we did the shoot, but I was pleasantly surprised to meet an energetic, spunky, petite, and super cute young lady! Dianne is due in about a month, and she looks amazing! After research some locations, I found that the Kenneth Hahn State Park was a convenient and varied enough location to give us some options for the shoot. I was blessed with nice cloud coverage that day, and was really pleased with these shots. Enjoy! :o)

Let's start off with my favorite shot of the day...

Special Olympics of Southern California - Event Photography

Through some of my photography friends, I got involved in shooting event photography for Special Olympics of Southern California. One of my goals was to use my photography for a great organization and I found one in SOSC. The first of two recent events I shot at was a last minute shoot. I had a maternity session scheduled, and was asked to photography a meet and greet for the All That Skate show at the Staples Center. When I heard that Michelle Kwan was going to be the special guest at the event, I was beyond excited! I used to watch a lot of figure skating as a kid, and Michelle is definitely one of my favorite figure skaters. My friend Jon got a shot of me with Michelle, but I refuse to post it. Let's just say, it was a good reminder for me to 1) go to the gym and 2) get a haircut. :o)
