About a month ago, I flew out to Irvine, CA to visit my aunt and help her out with some newborn photography tips . I decided to bring the whole family and spend a week away from the winter weather. We had a great time outdoors all week enjoying the scenery and exploring Orange County and Los Angeles. We visited a variety of parks, drove into the mountains, rode the rides a Santa Monica Pier, Bob and I were in the studio audience of Dr Phil, and we visited some gorgeous beaches. I took the opportunity to photograph the kids outdoors, something I haven’t had the chance to do since last fall. Here are some highlights from our trip. Enjoy!
My aunt Edie came along and I had to catch a few of her in action while my daughter Nina hammed it up in the water.
A big Thank You to Edie from Layland Masuda Photography for capturing these beautiful portraits of me with the girls, and for the gorgeous family portraits in Laguna Beach. The following images courtesy of Layland Masuda Photography:
