3 generations {part 2}


… And the Castillo Family shoot continued at the beach.

It was so fun to see the smiles on Veronica and Raul faces  every time strangers would stop to say how adorable baby Claudia looked ( and she did), she stole the show!  She is the friendliest baby on the planet, she literally waved and said “hi” to every person who walked by.

With this family it was so hard to choose my favorite shots. All the shots looked so beautiful and natural at the beach.


I was so happy I was there to share the moment when Claudia finally was comfortable with the water. Once her little toes touched that water there was no stopping her. She is now a bona fide beach baby, and fittingly so because the beach is so close to them.

Veronica and Raul were gifted with these matching tropical ensembles by someone very special to them. They wanted to incorporate these in some of their shots and I’m so happy we did because they look so incredibly beautiful. Veronica and Raul look like the king and queen of some newly discoved tropical island.




Thank you Castillo Family for allowing me to capture your beautiful smiles!!

Lifestyle: 3 Generations {Part 1}

I had the pleasure of shooting 3 generations over the weekend. I love when I am able to convey emotions through my photography, and this family portrait session oozed emotions.

Allow me to introduce you to the Castillo Family

When I arrived at Raul and Veronica’s home I immediately felt as if I was home. I was greeted with the warmest welcome by both Raul and Veronica, Raul’s lovely parents, and not to mention, little Claudia the couples one year old daughter.

Our first order of business was to take photos with the grandparents. Since it was a typical summer day here (in the high 90s) we opted to take photos indoors at the Castillo’s home.

One of the first shots of the day was this beautiful moment of Claudia gazing up at her grandmother. I am so in love with this shot. I was able to capture the love through generations.



This little princess is the center of their universe, and rightfully so, look at those doll eyes.


The three most important women in Raul's life.







... and the two most imporant men in Claudia's Life. 

 
After we wrapped up at the Castillo’s home we headed out to the beach, sans the grandparents. Stay tuned for part two of our beach adventure…
