{orocio | pregnancy | portrait | valencia}

I have had the pleasure of photographing the Orocio family for some years now. From their wedding to second baby 4 years ago. WOW time flies! Now they have been blessed with a little baby boy and they are all so excited. It has been a blast watching this family grow and I was so thrilled to photograph their maternity session. I can't wait to share the newborn images!

{griffins | portrait | valencia}

It is time to share our annual family portrait of the Griffins! I love how each session we get different locations, ideas and more creative! I already can't wait for the next one, I got some good ideas! For this session the Griffins wanted to go more formal and they all look amazing. Marty found this bridge in Valencia that is awesome and a perfect fit for the attire. Carolyn looks beyond stunning, you go girl! You are kicking boot camp's bootie! I can't believe how big the kids are getting, like weeds, but cute, lol. And they have fun every session strutting their stuff and showing off their latest moves. It is always a blast photographing the Griffin family and I can't wait for the next one!

{brandon | bar mitzvah | valencia}

I can't believe how fast time flies by. It feels like just last month we photographed Brandon's older brother, Matt's Bar Mitzvah. Since that was in 2010, I would say we are well past a month, lol. And omg I can't believe how big Matt has gotten. Amazing how they seem to spout up overnight! Brandon has grown so much and did such a wonderful job reading the Torah, hard to believe he was just a little kid a few years back. It was such a pleasure to work with the Witkin family again. They are adorable and one of our favorite families! I still can't get over how big and grown up the boys are getting. One of my favorite things about the Witkin's is the relationship they have with each other, so sweet to see them interact and love each other as you can see below. Brandon's Bar Mitvah theme was games, how cool! Games ranged from old arcade games like PacMan and blah blah to the Wii and PlayStation. Love the mix of vintage and modern. Way to go mom! ;-) It was great to see all the kids and adults having such a great time. Mazel Tov Brandon! Glad to have been part of such a special event!
