How cute!

That is what I kept saying as I took pictures of little baby Yuta last weekend. Little Yuta and his family are so cute! I was so honored to take some photographs for them. Here are my favorites!

While little Yuta was asleep, we took this image that would be perfect for a holiday card:

And here’s a mock-up:

Ten Little Fingers…

Today I had the honor of photographing Baby Yuta and his parents. What an adorable little boy! The rest of these photos will be available by November 10th, but I couldn’t resist posting one this evening:

Christi’s Baby Shower

My fiancé (who’s also my photographic assistant) asked me about the importance of baby showers. I was trying to convey to him how special these events are; how they commemorate the arrival of a baby, the sense of happy anticipation, the bonding between women & their unique shared experience.

All of these sentiments were in abundance at Christi’s baby shower last weekend. The event was held at Abuelo’s and was coordinated by Christi’s friend (and event planner) Tricia Brock. All the proofs are available here, but below are some highlights.

Check out these lovely details:

One of my favorite parts of shooting events are the departures. It’s so nice to see people’s unrestrained emotions as they say goodbye and offer their well wishes.

These are just a few highlights! Please click here to see the proofs. Also, please note that these pictures are totally available to Tricia, Christi & her guests for download and print as a result of our new shared copyrights - more information on that is here.

Thanks again for inviting me to photograph such a special event. Congratulations to Christi and her family!

Julia’s Christening

Eri’s little daughter Julia was christened in a beautiful ceremony this week, and I brought my new lens (a Nikkor 85mm f/1.4D) to help commemorate the occasion.

I say this all the time, but Eri is really a lovely new mom!

Poor Julia cried during the entire christening!

Michael tries to comfort her:

This little one was the only baby in attendance (out of 5) who didn’t cry! She just paid rapt attention:

The Baby’s Here!

Remember Eri’s baby shower? The baby has arrived! View most of my photos here. Some of my favorites:

Eri gets to eat sushi for the first time since the pregnancy. She’s so excited!

Eri’s Baby Shower

This weekend I hosted a couple’s baby shower for my best friend Eri & her husband Michael. It was great fun. It’s been so nice to see Eri’s tummy grow–her baby’s almost here! Click to see all the pictures, but here are a few previews:

I love the way Michael’s looking at his baby daughter:
