Danika & Honnalee - November 2012 {Family Photos - Avila Valley Barn, CA}

I was so happy that I had the honor of photographing Danika and Honnalee again this year.  They are such a fun mother - daughter pair, and they totally crack me up.  This year they were joined by Danika's sister and Mom.  We had fun hanging out in the hot sun, picking apples.

Metz Family - November 2012 {Family Photoshoot, Avila Valley Barn, CA}

 So fun to hang out with old friends and meet their sweet new additions.  Oliver was an absolute doll, and although he wasn't super smiley, I love the shots we got of his sweet face. 

One of my favorites...after he tasted Daddy's hair gel. :)

Knight Family - November 2012 {Family Photos, Avila Valley Barn, CA}

This is my second year shooting this sweet family's holiday photos.  Lucy is such a little doll!  It was fun to hang out with them at Avila Valley Barn on Saturday.

Look at this smile...kills me!!

Love this sweet father-daughter moment.

Jessica, Lexi & Family {Family Photos, Montana de Oro, CA}

 I was so excited to hang out with this family on Saturday.  Jessica just recently moved back to California, and it sure did miss her.  Not to mention that Jessica and Lexi were my very first photoshoot when I started my business.

 Megan was a little shy at her photoshoot at beautiful Montana de Oro on Saturday, but by the end of the shoot we were bring out her inner diva.

Mershon Family - November 2012 {Family Photoshoot, Pismo Beach, CA}

 Such a sweet family!  We had a lot of fun at the beach Saturday morning with the gorgeous weather.  Conner had so much fun running into the ocean fully clothed!  :)

Mariko - July 2012 - 5 Days New

I'm an aunt!  Not only am I an aunt, but I am an aunt to the sweetest little angel anyone has ever seen.  I could seriously eat her little squishy face.  When she was born I thought that my sister literally gave birth to her exact miniature twin.  My heart melts every time I see her, and by the time she's 5 she is going to be a Carey Matson Photography supermodel. ;)

Mari and her Grandma

OMG, look at her little monkey toes!
