Sometimes I just can’t decide between color and black & white…. so for today, a little double vision of my adorable niece sporting her stylish swimsuit.

My nephew is quite the little monkey. He is at the age where everything is new and exciting and just waiting to be explored. I snapped these pictures on Mother’s Day while we were visiting. I love his curious spirit. He is 100% boy

It is hard to believe that in just a few weeks, sweet baby Eli will be making his debut. My little sister is having a boy and today we celebrated in style with a luncheon and lots of gifts. It was so much fun! Thanks to everyone who came to celebrate with us! Here are a few of my favorites from this very special day.

My husband and I were able to help surprise our nieces and nephew with a trip to Disneyland over spring break. It was such a fantastic vacation filled with so many wonderful moments. From early morning walks around the park, meeting the princesses, watching a certain someone (ahem… me) have a panic attack on the swinging ferris wheel, to getting soaked on splash mountain multiple times, there are so many stories I will never forget.

Thanks for the memories!

by the book | i heart faces

The photo theme at I Heart Faces this week is “by the book,” and this image immediately sprung to mind. As a high school English teacher, this beautiful mother of three young boys is instilling a love of reading in her children from a young age.

I am honored to announce that Studio Life Photography has been chosen as an Affiliate Photographer for the Tiny Sparrow Foundation, which is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing lasting memories through the art of photography to families whose children are facing critical illness.

Tiny Sparrow Foundation was founded by Lidia Boicu, a photographer and mother, who was inspired to reach out to the tiniest warriors after her own battle with breast cancer. She is an inspiration to many, and now her heart for passing on lasting memories has become the soul of the Tiny Sparrow Foundation. The focus of Studio Life Photography has always been on creating photographic treasures for generations to come and what better way to carry on this legacy than providing custom photography to children and families facing the unfathomable.

Please take a moment and stop by the Tiny Sparrow Foundation website and become a fan on Facebook to read more about this organization.
