E&H . teens

to say i was excited for this shoot would be an understatement! i woke up today bright and early and was on pinterest all day preparing photography ideas for these ladies! then i relaxed remembering that i had two beautiful, smart, loving girls coming who i could count on to go with the flow and just get ideas as we went. 

i was super happy when i was planning this shoot, to say the least. knowing who was coming and where we were shooting i had no doubt about any aspect of this day. it was like a clean slate for me. something i rarely have! it was like a breath of fresh air when they both arrived on time and looking fabulous! it is still a shock to me that i have these two splendid girls as friends. i actually had to pinch myself a few times today thinking about it. how much they have been there for me and been just wonderful people to be around.

erica. beautiful. loving. caring. amazing.

 holly. gorgeous. loving. marvelous. awesome.

together their magical...

just a wonderful golden hour with two lovely girls. they have been my friend for about a year now. and i just adore them. they are both so beautiful & such a wonderful pair of girls to have around whenever you need anything. to say they are amazing is an understatement. they literally brighten my day when i see them! it makes me feel so blessed and hopeful for the friendships i share with them. 

today was spectacular! i couldn't be more happier with the turnout and the outcome of this shoot & these girls!

stay gorgeous,

behind the lens | personal

in photogrpahy class we had to do the dreaded self portraits! it was crazy stressful, i was very uncomfortable but learned a lot in the end. i am so glad that i only had three people watching, that i trust. victoria, gabby, & arielle! i couldn't have made any photographs pretty if they weren't there. i actually had fun at the end & was more me! :)

fall fashion | teens

at the beginning of the year i decided to join three clubs! one of which was art & fashion club! i love it. we do photo shoots every often and our meetings are easy & so fun to catch up with friends at. we have one coming up that we are shooting in SF. this one was the first one, fall. we went to Briones & had a blast! i love photographing these beauties.

Pineda 2013 | kids

i will never get tired of driving out to Fremont or where ever, and taking photographs of my little cousins! i just can't see how i will ever go a year without taking them. it brightens my heart to see them altogether and then apart. i love each of their different personalities & how they all have so much energy & love inside. they might be a crazy bunch, but they are such a blessing to me and my whole family.

this year my aunt knew exactly where she wanted to do them. so i got to her house early with my two venti gingerbread lattes & my camera ready to capture the sparkle in their eyes. she was a little late but, thats life! we all went in her car over to this little spot. i first took each of the kids individually, love getting to be alone with them finding out who they are alone without their siblings. it is really a different experience! then they all got together and that was when the fun really begun. once you put them all together it's madness! but beautiful, lovely, darling madness. the kind i LOVE! i can't wait for next year's session!
