“I think dogs are the most amazing creatures; they give unconditional love. For me, they are the role model for being alive.” ~ Gilda Radner Yoda came into our lives almost 16 years ago, a miracle in so many ways. I never thought he would leave us and it is so very hard to say...
September 6, 2009 - 7:24 pm - So sorry, Teri. Yoda was such a great dog. He was always such a pleasure to see every time I visited. I have such great memories of hanging out at your parent's house and he was in all of them.
this family is wonderful.. just simply sweet, special people. i mentioned before in their maternity photography post that they first contacted me in the fall of 2007 and it wasn’t until this summer that we finally met. i am so glad we did. their newborn baby boy was born on June …
i think this 7 month old baby girl is just about as cute as they come. i’m short on words today as i’m headed to michigan tomorrow and there is much to do before then! i’m sure looking forward to the wide open green spaces and warm, quiet nights. a note to my …

i anxiously awaited the birth of this beautiful baby. i couldn’t wait to photograph him, especially after meeting his lovely parents at their maternity photography session. i think we happened to shoot on the most overcast day in los angeles history, but we still managed to make plenty of gorgeous, peaceful photographs of this …

i’ve met and photographed so many unique families lately and this one was no exception. in fact, i’ve wanted to meet this family since they first emailed me in the fall of 2007! i was so excited when they wrote again a few weeks ago to see about documenting this special time. not only are...
May 27, 2009 - 3:14 pm - Oh Teri! These are absolutely beautiful. You captured the true essence of our family, especially Abby! You have me in tears. Thank you for sharing your talent with our family and for giving us a way to capture this specail time in our lives, to treasure always. Sara
May 27, 2009 - 7:02 pm - Thank you Sara for your kind words; it means so much! I had such a great time hanging out and getting to know you guys. I can't wait to show you the rest, by the way.. this hardly covers my favorites! :)
May 27, 2009 - 7:36 pm - How beautiful, Sara! I love the photos of Abby - can't wait to see the baby boy! And you are such a radiant mama.

this is a very special family that i really miss seeing on a regular basis. we use to see each other a few times a week at santa monica gymnastics, where i use to teach. you can catch a glimpse of miss A.’s reminiscences of the gym in one of the photos below. once you’re...
May 14, 2009 - 10:36 pm - These are just beautiful. I love how you captured each child's personality. The picture of C. playing on the floor will forever be a reminder of this time in her life. I want A. to have the picture of her holding C. when she grows up, so I can remind her what an awesome big sister she is. You can almost see little N's mind figuring out the world in these pictures. I can't wait to see more. Thank you so much for sharing the day with our family.
May 14, 2009 - 11:29 pm - thank you, kimberly! it was so wonderful to spend the day together - your family is an inspiration! A. is such an awesome big sister and i was thrilled when i captured that moment.. i knew it would be special. and i have to tell you, i'm missing C.'s tight hugs already! hope to see you guys again soon. thanks again!
May 17, 2009 - 10:39 pm - C and A and N are growing like weeds!!! K looks the same- a beautiful, loving mom. The photos are very evocative of their essence. It's like you captured a story in each photo, and I can picture movement and conversation, and what might have been going on.
May 17, 2009 - 11:08 pm - thank you michael! it's very encouraging to know that you can see their essence in the photos. that was definitely my ultimate goal! it's very different (in a wonderful way) to photograph a family i've known for awhile. :)
last sunday was a very special day for this little girl and i was so happy that i was asked to be a part of it! i met this great kid about 2 1/2 years ago when i was her gymnastics teacher. it’s always hard to move on from seeing the same kids …
May 7, 2009 - 9:16 pm - I miss this kid, too!!!! I wasn't a good instructor to her, when she made it into my class (class size, age and ability differences, having to focus on Academy meet routines, evaluations, her being sick and missing classes- ugh!). Hope she's still enjoying gymnastics. Very nice photos, Teri.
