Sneak Peek View of a 6-Month Fresh Baby - Los Angeles Children's Photographer

Decision, decision, decision...  How can I choose just one image to "reveal" to the anxious grandma and family?  Baby D2 is so cute and he gave me not one, not two, but a myriad of baby expressions that I love to capture in my photo sessions with children.While you will for sure get to know baby D2 more in a later post, this image will hopefully "quench the thirst".  However, I won't be surprised if it does the opposite and raise your appetite as a friend always wants to "eat" my cute portrait subjects.  Good thing she's all the way in Spain.  Right, Vanessa? ;-)

What a unique way to present your portraits on a "floating" gallery block - Los Angeles Children's Photographer

One of the ways that I add value to my clients is to always be on the look-out for unique and creative ways to present the beautiful portraits.  I had a portrait session with the family of Beau and Stacy and never had a chance to write about it.The fact is, their daughter Savannah gave me lots of interesting images, as you know how my photography is inspired by children.  I thought the "floating" gallery block would be a nice addition to any family's nursery or a child's bedroom.  As a result, I designed this sample product using some images of Savannah's cute expressions:

As you see in the images above, this "floating" gallery block is a series of smaller gallery blocks constructed as a collage on an overall large background, also made of a gallery block.  The photographs are printed on Kodak ENDURA Metallic photo paper with a satin laminate, which are then adhered to solid wood with perfect 90-degree corners.  What's not reflected in the above 2 images is the beautiful sheer glow that came from the metallic photo paper, toned down just perfectly by the laminate.

This is another frame-less, ready to hang product that will add colors and characteristics to any family's walls and sizes and colors can be customized.

I would love to hear your thoughts and/or questions.

The Cutest Kids in Halloween Costumes Contest is going on - Los Angeles Children's Photographer

Everything has been reminding me that fall is undeniably with us and yellow, red and brown will soon be the prevalent colors.  As my eyes moved near the bottom of the calendar, I know it's the spooky time of the year again.  So, it will only be fitting to "update" the color them of this website immediately.

The other day, I had a photo shoot at a pumpkin patch and loved, loved, loved the atmosphere and had fun.  The chill in the area helped my head think up a fun and impromptu idea.  Why not have a contest of pictures of the kids in Halloween costumes?
