Cam & Kristine, Annie, Isabelle & Charlie. Family. Orange County Family Photographer.

I absolutely adore all of these outta-staters that are gracing me with their sweet families. Cam & Kristine are originally from California but have planted themselves in the one of the Four Corners states, Arizona. Although they love their too hot to handle state, they often miss the breezy beaches that us Californians (like myself) often take for granted. So, while it’s 112 degrees back in AZ, Cam and Kristine will be partying and keeping it cool at his twenty-year reunion as well as hanging out at family birthday party all in one weekend. Yup, they decided to make it a short family trip and get a photo session in with ME while they were here in town. Do I feel special? I sure do!!! How spoiled was I to also photograph their blonde-cheerleading babe, beautiful dancing brunette, and spiky-haired baseball hunk?!!! These three literally made it feel “like a day at the beach.” I’m usually either photographing just adults or newbies and tots, so when I get to hang out with the big kids, I feel like I a sixth grade teacher all over again. Except…instead of hearing whining because I assigned too much homework I get to hear the fun stuff about boys and latest trends in clothing. Cam and Kristine, thank you for being super cute and allowing me into your lives for a peek of how life is with three teenage (and pre-teen) kids. You guys make it look easy with your kiddos that were ever so uberly-well-behaved!
