I forgot to post this photo of some of the holiday cards I got from clients this past season. {I accidentally threw some out before remembering to take a photo though... oops!} I love getting these and seeing what my clients are up to. Thank you!


What a great way to start the year... a B'Nai Mitzvah with triplets! I had been looking forward to this Mitzvah for awhile as I think this family is great. The ceremony was held at the beautifully redone Congregation Tikvat Jacob in Manhattan Beach. Although I wasn't able to shoot during the ceremony, it didn't matter... the wonderful Rabbi Hyman did a complete run through at the rehearsal and allowed me full access. ( This makes such a difference to my clients in getting great images and albums that tell the whole story of the day.) I can't wait to shoot here again!







The party was held at the Manhattan Marriott and once again, Nina Bracker out did herself with the event planning. Donald from Let the Music Play had the entire place on it's feet all night, young and old. It was an unbelievable, high energy, celebration for three amazing kids!

I love my new Natural Life wallet! Sometimes cuteness needs to come before form and function.


I might have to get the card holder to go with it. What do you think?

Here is another family's blog post I'm catching up on. Is it too late for Santa hats? lol

I'm going to try to catch up on some blogging over the next week or so. When it gets crazy busy, some times my blogging lags behind. Resolution number 5: get better about that! (I'll leave you guessing about 1-4.)






Here are a few of a shoot I did during the summer with Q, whom I've had the pleasure of photographing a few times now. He is always so amazing and a joy to shoot.
