The Fragners: Orange County Family Photographer

This is a beautiful family, inside and out. The Fragner's have had their fair share of hardships in this life and they have surely tasted both the bitter and the sweet, and boy do they do it well. Debbie (the mom, and my friend) is strong willed and determined. I can just see the sparkle in her eyes that she's got passion and vigor for life. She gets things done, I know she does, which is why she makes such a beautiful mother. These two can truly make lemonade out of lemons I'll tell ya that much. Such a joy for me to meet such special people in my job. It makes everything magical for me, and I love that I create long lasting friendships out of 60 minute encounters with a camera lens.
Take a look....

The Lovegrens: Orange County Family PHotography

Alright, so I'm about to be a marathon poster right now!! All these shoots have been sitting on my computer waiting to be posted. Things have been really crazy with the Christmas season and I've had a hard time catching up! But what greater way to do it than a marathon post right?
right.
So here they are, beginning with the beautiful Lovegren family. We met at the beach on what turned out to be a beautiful day. So beautiful in fact, the sun wouldn't stop shining! We were dealing with a little harsh sunlight at first and I was worried about it, but actually it turned to work in our favor. Take a look at this gorgeous family!

The Oakley Family: Orange County Family Photographer


Where do I start? Have you ever seen cuter dimples?? I just melted with nearly every photo. The entire family is blooming with dimpled cheeks. YUM. This has to be one of my all time favorite sessions. This couple was SO in love, so interactive, so playful, and just all around a DREAM to photograph. I hardly had to tell them to do anything, they basically just hung out and let me watch. How lucky am I right? They are d'lish. Please, please, pretty please with a tractor on top come see me again.
Take a peek.

Try, try again


I guess it's just the collage type photos that turn out grainy. Here you can see how amazing mama is and how luscious those rolls are FOR REAL!

Kumjim Family: Orange County Family Photographer

I can't believe all these amazingly beautiful people I've been photographing! They make my job a piece of cake-hardly much editing to do really. Look at these beauties.

Isn't babe just to die for? I mean, honestly those rolls are more than I can even handle! I was giggling to myself as I was looking at these thinking, how in the world can i get my hands on those legs? I want to munch.
Seriously, she is soooo yummy.



Merry Christmas Kumjims!

(for some reason all my photos on the web are turning out so dingy and pixely lately? What is going on? They are so much more vibrant and clear on my computer than they are on the web. It's making me frustrated!)
