Venessa | Maternity | Vista Hermosa

I met Venessa a few years ago when we taught at the same school in Los Angeles. She was a sweet gal who loved her profession as well as children. So, I always knew she’d make for an incredible mama! Then a couple of years later I took her and her husband’s Anniversary photos at their alma mater, Loyola Marymount University and I was like, “When is this fun couple going to make a baby?!” Ha, and now here we are celebrating their baby boy bump (actually he already arrived and is as cute as can be)! Oh and her sweet grandma made these super soft and cute baby booties and sweater! Yes!!! I always love anythang handmade. 2016-10-13_00012016-10-13_00022016-10-13_00032016-10-13_00042016-10-13_00052016-10-13_00062016-10-13_00072016-10-13_00082016-10-13_00092016-10-13_00102016-10-13_00112016-10-13_00122016-10-13_00132016-10-13_00142016-10-13_00152016-10-13_00162016-10-13_00172016-10-13_00182016-10-13_00192016-10-13_00202016-10-13_00212016-10-13_00222016-10-13_00232016-10-13_0024

Amanda | Maternity | Brea

If you are an optimist then you believe in silver linings and how beautiful and bright rainbows always follow storms to give hope. There is no more truer hope then the one of a new life. Amanda, her husband, and big brother, Benjamin have been patiently waiting for this moment, to celebrate their future daughter and little sister.

When Amanda contacted me to photograph her maternity session I was as pumped as a mom walking through Trader Joe’s and finding the last box of Pumpkin Joes in October (that was a mouthful). They are like the cutest little pumpkin family I ever did see. Can you tell how excited I am about pumpkin season?! Well they are…and then she told me they were having a GIRL! I am so excited for their new baby, journey into the two-kid zone, and that their babe is a girl! Amanda is so gorgeous I can’t wait to meet a mini-her!

Luke | Newborn | At Home Session

He came into their lives a few days late, but had their heart from the beginning. Luke is one of the squishiest and creamiest little handsome babes evah! Vanessa and Aaron welcomed Luke in July and he was the best 10 pound present they every could have received. Right away he was showered with gifts, like a prince, from all of his aunties (cause he’s got that auntie team -you know I love me some old Kanye). He may have taken his time baking, but when he arrived Vanessa and Aaron were ready with an adorable shabby chic- sprinkled nursery. Just take a peek for yourself! Every time they spoke of their babe smiles and laughter just exuded from their spirits. I don’t buy that whole baby smiles come from gas, nope I know his grin came from all the good vibes his parents were spreading in the room that day. Through out Luke’s first ever photo session he was just a natural baby model…someone put him in an ad!

Congratulations Vanessa and Aaron and thank you for allowing me to help you capture these firsts of your son and the new chapter in your lives!2016-08-23_00012016-08-23_00022016-08-23_00032016-08-23_00042016-08-23_00052016-08-23_00062016-08-23_00072016-08-23_00082016-08-23_00092016-08-23_00102016-08-23_00112016-08-23_00122016-08-23_00132016-08-23_00142016-08-23_00152016-08-23_00162016-08-23_00172016-08-23_00182016-08-23_00192016-08-23_00202016-08-23_00212016-08-23_00222016-08-23_00232016-08-23_00242016-08-23_00252016-08-23_00262016-08-23_00272016-08-23_00282016-08-23_00292016-08-23_00302016-08-23_00312016-08-23_00322016-08-23_00332016-08-23_00342016-08-23_00352016-08-23_00362016-08-23_00372016-08-23_00382016-08-23_00392016-08-23_00402016-08-23_00412016-08-23_00422016-08-23_00432016-08-23_00442016-08-23_00452016-08-23_0046

Allen & Carmen, Nathan, Jared & Niko | Family | Palos Verdes

Family is everything to Allen and Carmen! They are all about their three boys and every smelly pair of sock that comes with that love. Ha! Just kidding, well not really because I speak from experience after a few laps around the playground boys start getting a very unique odor. No offense to all males out there. lol

Their two older boys have the best times being super active in sports. Carmen and Allen also provide perfect learning experiences through the family’s summer travels. Now, that baby Niko can walk he has joined all of their fun under the sun. Allen and Carmen’s lil boy triad seriously does everything together from dressing alike on special occasions especially Halloween and of course they love representing that Dodger blue too. So, Carmen thought it was about that time again for them to all get coordinated and show their handsome smiles in front of my lens. What can I say but they nailed it and each boy plus mom and dad shined bright like a diamond during their family session!

Thank you again Carmen for allowing me to help you capture your growing family! 2016-07-31_00012016-07-31_00022016-07-31_00032016-07-31_00042016-07-31_00052016-07-31_00062016-07-31_00072016-07-31_00082016-07-31_00092016-07-31_00102016-07-31_00112016-07-31_00122016-07-31_00132016-07-31_00142016-07-31_00152016-07-31_00162016-07-31_00172016-07-31_00182016-07-31_00192016-07-31_00202016-07-31_00212016-07-31_00222016-07-31_00232016-07-31_00242016-07-31_00252016-07-31_00262016-07-31_00272016-07-31_00282016-07-31_00292016-07-31_00302016-07-31_00312016-07-31_00322016-07-31_00332016-07-31_00342016-07-31_00352016-07-31_00362016-07-31_00372016-07-31_00382016-07-31_00392016-07-31_00402016-07-31_00412016-07-31_00422016-07-31_00432016-07-31_00442016-07-31_00452016-07-31_00462016-07-31_00472016-07-31_00482016-07-31_00492016-07-31_00502016-07-31_00512016-08-01_00012016-08-01_00022016-08-01_00032016-08-01_00042016-08-01_00052016-08-01_00062016-08-01_0007

Naya | Newborn | At Home Session

One of my favorite fams had another baby girl and they are just head-over-heels for her! Welcome to my family too, the Eva Marie Photo newborns family that is! I adore watching, photographing, and interacting with all these adorable babes and their families! It’s amazing to watch all these sweetie pies from the beginning to toddlerhood and on. So, thank you dear family for allowing me to help capture another one of your beautiful babes!

Naya did you know your big sister was also photographed by me too? Well she was and you are just a sweet, delicate, and precious as you! Your mommy and daddy love their girls without a doubt, so much so that they’d spend a couple of hours of their free time with me so that they could get these memories of you to cherish forever and ever. Naya, soon you’ll recognize your sister’s adorable giggle every time she’s trying tease your daddy by running away from him. Then you will grow a little more and you’ll probably only feel one hundred percent comfortable in your mommy’s warm embrace as she looks down at you with such an overwhelming sense of joy. And then get ready for your daddy to throw you up high in the sky just to make you smile. Don’t worry he’ll always be there to catch you, just like he does with your sister. Oh and let’s talk about how your sister is looking forward to being your very best friend, to tell secrets to and to play with under the sun in your big backyard. Welcome to the world Naya!

Ryder |Newborn

Parenthood is one of the most fascinating times in a life. It’s filled with an amazing amount of love and fear all in the same moment. The love is unmeasurable, why? This tiny human was created from two individuals, their parents, with all of their heart and soul. Then a tiny bit of fear sets in because your babe is actual a real little human that you must help grow and nourish every single day. Luckily Erika and Ryan have already passed that stage of fear and they are practically pros. They’ve already started with their sweet and adorable daughter. Now let’s welcome their scrumptious baby boy Ryder. His cheeks, button nose, and oh that “Patene Pro V” kinda good hair!

Can I just say that these two parents are one of my favorites! I feel like I’ve been with them from day one, well I guess I kinda have. I was honored to photograph Erika and Ryan’s love on their wedding day, then came family portraits, and now baby number two.  Congratulations Erika and Ryan on your adorable family!

Multigenerational Family Session | Family | Whittier

I love Whittier! Great food, trails, and community, not to mention adorable families! Sarah and Nick are close friends of mine, so when Nick’s mom, Joan, contacted me to help her document three generations of Alarcon’s I was not only honored but all in! This multigenerational family session included Joan her two sons and their growing families. In all honesty I love the typical family session but I think it’s incredible to see multiple generations come together because of this phenomenal quote, “{photographs are to}…freeze a moment in time, preserve a family’s history, and ensure future generations will com to know their ancestors.” We all need memories like theses; the kind we can print, hang on our walls, and as time passes feel a sweet sense of relief that they hold a special place in our hearts and homes.

Maiya & Liam | First Birthdays |Los Angeles County

Twins separated at birth, just joshing you all! These two cuties were born on the same day so obviously they’ll share a birthday photo session to celebrate turning one! Each of their personalities definitely shine through! Maiya is was a little camera shy, but full of curiosity and sass! Her dainty mannerisms and beauty just shown through every image. Liam had a chill “look-at-me” swag to him! Mama, with that smile you better watch out! Till’ next time cuties! 2016-07-06_00012016-07-06_00022016-07-06_00032016-07-06_00042016-07-06_00052016-07-06_00062016-07-06_00072016-07-06_00082016-07-06_00092016-07-06_00102016-07-06_00112016-07-06_00122016-07-06_00132016-07-06_00142016-07-06_00152016-07-06_00162016-07-06_00172016-07-06_00182016-07-06_00192016-07-06_00202016-07-06_00212016-07-06_00222016-07-06_0023
