Sam and Ava

We photographed Sam and Ava in Old Towne San Diego, which is just about the best location for shooting kids that I can image….beautiful terraces, a cannon, a covered wagon….the kids loved it, the parents loved it and we loved it. Sam and Ava were total hams and very cooperative (as long as I gave them plenty of time for goofy faces and climbing on everything). I love the pics that we got, especially how they transformed in black and white.

Baby O and her fabulous fam

This was a fun family shoot that we did in October before baby Jack arrived. Baby Olivia is a beautiful, happy girl and her furry sister Indiana has quite the personality. We had a very enjoyable afternoon with this sweet little girl…she is one of the most easy going babies we have worked with. She modeled a variety of flowered headbands and cute outfits without a peep, showed off her parent’s alma mater with a hat and a blanket and fell asleep just in time to pose sweetly on her great grandmother’s fur stole.

Dylan and Hudson

Big brother Dylan welcomed his new little brother Hudson last summer and I drove up to LA to photograph the family when Hudson was just a newbie. Hudson was already looking like his brother at just a few weeks old. Dylan was such a proud big brother and such an active guy….the last time I photographed him he was just starting to walk and this trip he didn’t stop moving. It was a truly enjoyable afternoon capturing this family’s new addition.

Kristen and Bob: Engagement Shoot

Jon and I shot Kristen and Bob’s engagement shoot in the fall in Newport Beach, at their FUN engagement party. It was such a blast to photograph them both…they were so relaxed and fun-loving….its easy to see why they love each other so much. Their wedding will be in May in Coto de Caza and it is bound to be just as fun, passionate and classy as the engagement party. Actually, that pretty much sums Kristen up too….fun, passionate and classy.

Oh, and did I mention beautiful?

Bob…not looking too shabby yourself. Quite a gorgeous couple!

They couldn’t keep their hands off each other…we barely needed to pose them!

So not only do we get to photograph this beautiful couple….check out their family!!!

It doesn’t get much better than this….stunning couple, sweet family and a amazing location. We can’t wait until May.

Welcome Ava!

Ava was born in September of 2011, a little Italian beauty with dark eyes and pouty lips. Her mother and father are high school friends of mine, and it gives me so much happiness to continue to shoot their family as they grow. Jake is such a gentle and sweet big brother, I love watching his interactions with her.

Baby Jack Jack

Our newest addition, Jack Peyton, arrived on November 22, 2011. We are loving being new parents to this little guy. Even at 4 o’clock in the morning.

More on that later. But the big news for Emily Ann Photography is that I am finally open again for business. I have already starting booking weddings for 2012 and starting to book shoots for February and March. The baby has actually (ironically) brought me more flexibility to my schedule so I am lucky to be available for weekdays and weekends for shoots. I am so excited to start this new chapter of my life as a mom and see how it enhances my abilities as a photographer.

Amy, Bryce and Olivia

Little Olivia is ten weeks old and the sweetest ball of smiles and laughs. Her mom Amy, dad Bryce and big (furry) brother Barney are so happy to welcome her to their lives.

Bryan and Jody’s wedding – April 2011

Emily LePlastrier — Tue, 26 Jul 2011 20:07:58 +0000

Finally….A long overdue post about a beautiful and simple wedding from April of this year. Jody and Bryan were married at the Pacific Club in Newport Beach in a small afternoon ceremony surrounded by friends and family and their fabulously spunky twins. The day was a pleasure to photograph…they were relaxed and easy going and so obviously in love.

We found this cool tree down by the water that had LOVE carved in it. Perfect? Serendipitous.

Felina and family, Dana Point

Emily LePlastrier — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 20:43:55 +0000

Felina is an old friend of mine from Oregon. We met up with her family at the beach below the Montage for a fun afternoon.One seemingly small wave snuck up on them and soaked them. I thought it would make for a great holiday card montage.

Unintentional sabbatical

Emily LePlastrier — Sat, 16 Jul 2011 23:04:26 +0000

I took an unintended three month sabbatical from updating my blog because we were busy cooking up this little guy, who is due in November. And along with all that baking came months of morning sickness and house renovations, and a bunch of fantastic family photo shoots and events that I sadly did not blog about. I am going to try and post some of the photos of the last few months, and some of the recent ones. So be prepared, a lot of cute families on their way.
