Alley Cat.

I bought Zachary this jacket and immediately knew I had to find an "alley" to photograph him in it.  Unfortunately, I forgot to take some with it unbuttoned since he has a pretty short window for pictures nowadays. His shirt says "seriously handsome" =) (from Carter's). His jacket is Target, pants Old Navy, and shoes are Converse. 

I love this boy.

And yes, I know it has been a while since I have posted. I do so many shoots and take so many pictures. I have gotten so backed up on blogging because of that and when I finally sit to do a blog I don't even know where to begin. It can be a bit overwhelming. But because I had to start sometime and with something, I started with these. Just because they make me smile. 

Chloe

I photographed this beautiful little girl a few years ago when I started photographing children and just as she began modeling. I just adore her and her family! After our session I met them for coffee and they gave me the sweetest Christmas gift. I still display the beautiful ceramic owls in my office to this day. I still feel so touched that they thought of me. Kind gestures make my heart so happy. I just LOVE my job and the people I meet!!!

So, you can imagine my excitement when her mom emailed me about doing another session with not only her but her two boys who are now modeling as well! We even realized that our kids are with the same wonderful agency (JE Models). It was so great to get to spend such a fun day in downtown San Jose with them. Chloe has grown so much but is still the sweetest, silliest, little girl. She really is an amazing model and comes up with her own awesome poses and ideas too! She's been in several ads and even the cover of Disney Fun magazine (I still have a copy). I'm so proud of her and look forward to seeing her star grow even more.
