I was so excited when my friends Pat and Elizabeth asked me to create portraits of their baby girl and the three of them together.

Pat and I were roommates in college at Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara and I photographed Pat and Elizabeth’s beautiful wedding in Monterey.

It’s been so cool to be a part of these major milestones in their lives.

My friend Dr. Norm Reddick, amazing sculptor and cosmetic dentist, asked me to do this multi-generational family portrait shoot at his home in Westlake Village, CA when everyone was home visiting for Easter.

I absolutely love this first shot of his wife and their daughters.

We posted and wrote about the Sieders’ beach portrait shoot a little while back on our blog. Now, I’m really excited to share with you something our Facebook fans already got a look at; The end-result, this amazing eleven canvas, 50×70″ custom portrait installation:

I LOVE this family portrait shoot! I am honestly jealous of these images. Adam did such a fantastic job and the Sieder family made it so fun and easy. Plus, what a beautiful day! It is hard to believe these were taken in December. You gotta love California winters. This was a surprise shoot the family did for their mom and wife for her birthday. Such a cool idea! She was so surprised and the entire family loved their portraits.

Here is the last of our series of four Senior Portrait Sessions! Adam shot Colleen’s sister’s senior portrait a few years ago, so he was excited when he got the opportunity to shoot Colleen’s as well. This was a beautiful shoot! They went to the Westlake Village Inn to start, which has amazing gardens. They were able to get a huge variety of great portraits. And, Colleen is such a natural – she looks like a model. They ended the Senior Portrait Session at Leo Carrillo Beach in Malibu and got some really amazing portraits there too. And, Colleen wasn’t afraid to get her feet wet (literally) even though the water must have been a little chilly.

Also, check out the fun slideshow we put together for Colleen’s parents at the bottom of this post.

I love this Senior Portrait Session! It was such a great day at a beautiful location with an awesome high school senior. Kaytlyn loves the beach and wanted to do the shoot around her house. And, it worked out great since she lives on the beach. Kaytlyn even brought out her guitar and got some really great portraits with it. Adam has an obsession with clouds and one of his favorite shots ever had his glorious clouds in them. Such a perfect day!

This is Amber again. This next Senior Portrait Session is very special to me because it is my sister’s senior portraits. This was extra special because I was able to tag along on the shoot as well. We had so much fun going around different places in Moorpark and Westlake and getting some really beautiful shots. There was even a fire that day and you can see the smoke in the background of some of the portraits, which helped the sky just look amazing. It is hard to believe that my sister is going to be graduating from high school this year. But, I am so excited she was able to get some gorgeous senior portraits to always remember her senior year by.

Hi everyone. This is Amber, Adam’s wife and studio coordinator. I have been working awhile on putting together this whole series of Senior Portraits for the blog. And, it is finally done! We have senior portrait sessions from four senior girls who attend different high schools all over southern California.

The first senior portrait session is of Adriana. Adam has known Adriana’s sister for several years and was excited when he was asked to do this shoot. Adriana will be graduating from high school in Orange County, but she wanted to do the shoot in Malibu. So, they were able to go to some of Adam’s most popular portrait locations, Paramount Ranch and Leo Carrillo Beach in Malibu. The portraits turned out beautiful. Adriana has such great style and brought a ton of different clothes, which just helped to show off her awesome personality.

Adam had the opportunity to shoot in Westlake Village on a perfect California day with two wonderful kids. Everyone had such a great time and when it was time to go the little girl didn’t want to be done. So, we took some extra portraits at the end that would never have happened if it weren’t for the enthusiasm of an awesome 2 year old. What a great shoot!

Chloe and Luca’s dad (once my high school teacher!) asked me to create portraits of his beautiful kids as a surprise for their mom on Mother’s day. I loved the idea and working with the kids was a blast! Here a few of the great portraits we made together:
