The Jacob's Family Portraits at the Beach - Laguna Beach, CA

One of the most rewarding parts of my job as a family portrait photographer, is watching my clients children grow up over the years. Kelly Jacobs and her crew of guys always pull off a great photo session. I don’t know how she does it though, because it’s not like the old days were she would just show up for her family portrait session with all of the kids in one car.

A picture says a thousand words Jack and Brynlee's engagement photos at the beach

There is a fun story behind Jack and Brynlee's engagement photos at the beach in Laguna Beach, California. Both Jack and Brynlee live in Saint George, Utah, where they met in church at a young age. Just recently, since both of their families just happened to be visiting Orange County, California at the same time, Jack decided it was the perfect time to propose to Brynlee.

Jack and Brynlee plan on getting married this march at one of the LDS temples.

High School Senior Photography Triplets Laguna Beach, California

Having photographed these triplets since they were very young, it was an awesome opportunity to photograph their Laguna Beach, California high school senior session. These triplets are very special to me and we had so much fun on this beautiful overcast night.
