January Photo a Day

I’m not sure if you’ve been playing along on instagram, but I have. Someone somewhere came up with a photo a day challenge for all instagram users or shall I say lovers. I too am addicted to instagram, have been for a while. So when I saw someone post this I was a little giddy if I do say so myself. This is a great way for me to challenge my iphone photo-taking skills and make sure that I’m always practicing with my big girl camera. Because practice makes perfect, right? Right! Here are a few of my shots. If you want to play just make sure to tag your photos #janphotoaday or follow me @ evamariephoto.

 

Day 4: Letter box. I’m sure every crafty girl has Martha visiting her once a month.

Day 8: Your sky. This it what it looks like on our daily walks.

Day 7: Favorite. I love little pretty girly things. Glittery necklace, nail polish and my new fave pretty tape.

Day 13: In your bag.

Wallet/clutch: Love, love, love. Purchased this for a steal at Nordstrom in the BP section of course.

Hello Kitty make up bag:. Yes, I am an O.G. Kitty fan. Plus this little bag holds every thing in its perfectly separated compartments.

Lotion: I refuse to have ashy hands!

Pacifier: Yes, just in case my bundle of joy decides to be funny and hide his.

Double sided DKNY Perfume roller: Smells sweet and won’t leak. Awesomeness!

Antibacterial: For all the lil boogers I work with.

L’Occitane Lip Balm: Soothes my lips during these dry winter days.

Jewelry: A lil secret…jewelry always dresses up an outfit!

Family Mini Session: Sharing my Cousins

I am the eldest cousin on my dad’s side. So what does that make me?  The boss. Actually Mrs. Boss! Well that’s what I like to think anyway. Actually I love that I have more than a handful of cousins that I can still act like a kid with. My favorite part of being the “boss” cousin is that I can grab my camera, shout across my grandparent’s living room and tell them they are going to become models…for a second. Over the Christmas break, I had a little fun teasing, bossing around and of course sharing the love of my camera with my cousins. Three boys and a girl made for an interesting afternoon. Boys will be boys. While they wrestled every other second, Miss Katie, the older sister, batted her eyes and shook her head as if this was nothing new to add to her long list of embarrassing moments created by her brothers. Here are my cousins Peter, Philip, Matthew and Katie. What did I love about this mini? My cousins eyes. They are all different and unique.

Brotherly love.

Newbies: Joshua & Jayden

Babies are miracles. Each one is a precious little gift from above. Recently I had the opportunity to photograph Nazareth while she was pregnant with her second and third child. Yes, twins were cooking in her beautiful belly. Nazareth was lucky and received her Christmas gift a little early this year. Their little family was graced with a bouncing baby boy, Joshua, weighing 7.8 lbs., 20 inches and an adorable baby girl, Jayden, weighing 7.2 lbs., 18 inches. Not too long ago I was blessed with a tiny miracle myself, so I know capturing their first moments is crucial because they grow so quickly. I was honored to be able to photograph Jayden and Joshua. Each of their personalities already shines through the lens. Joshua was a little sleepy boy, which was perfect for me beacuase I could bundle him up in the cutest positions. Jayden was a fiesty little sweetheart that wanted to take over the show. Both babies are incredibly amazing. They make you want to nibble their sweet cheeks. Congratulations again Nazareth, Luis and big brother James!

Baby Joshua

Look at his little smirk.
Baby Jayden


Twins!!!
I think she was hungry, again.


Tiny tootsies.


Twin love.

Christmas Photo Shoot Take 2

Here is the last Christmas photo shoot for my bebe for this holiday season. I just had to snap a few more shots while he is still crawling. These are the smiles, giggles and funny faces I want to remember forever. I love you my baby!

My ‘lil bear.


His faces are so darn cute!
He looks like one of Santa’s little helpers.
I tried this again except I sewed on a cute Christmas colored plaid tie to his shirt (aka onsie).

My favorite photo from the shoot. His two front teeth are adorable and the vintage color really matched his Christmas Day outfit:)

The Christmas Card Outtakes

Our Christmas cards will be in the mail tomorrow…finally. This year we had a few mishaps and blooper before we got a Christmas card worthy photo shoot. This is how it went down. On the first take, I couldn’t decide on a location or backdrop. Another day we lost light. Duh Evie the sun sets way earlier this time of year. Third time is a charm, right? Yes, so true. We were all ready. Time, location and attire, check!. But of course we still had some outtakes that aren’t too bad if you ask me. But then again, I think my lil bebe and husband look so darn cute anytime.

Sometimes I like to use this vintage look. Oh yes the white stuff on the bebe’s head isn’t dandruff…lol It was supposed to be snow:)


Oh my, <3 them! Look at his tie, crooked!

Family: The Velazquez Bunch

Recently families with boys are attracted to my lens. Like magnets to a teacher’s white board, they just stick. Boys make me laugh, boys make me run, and boys make shoots fly by because they sure know how to have fun. The Velazquez boys, Matthew and Nathan, were a bit camera shy at first. But after a few minutes, they forgot I was there…phewww! Their parents, Marissa and Robin, are truly amazing. They have patience, like I’ve never seen, and kindness that soothes the soul. Of course I clicked with Marissa right away. Why, you ask? Well she is a fellow Trojan, like myself. I knew there was a reason she looked so great in that cardinal red. Thank you Velazquez family for letting me capture your tender moments. FIGHT ON!

Matthew
Nathan& their doggieThis park was awesome. Everywhere you looked there was a new spot, with amazing trees, to take pictures.
I had to get the wildlife trying to attack Marissa’s poor boots. Classic.What? I can’t hear you!!!I tell you, boys just like having fun.
Marissa and Robin wanted some personal photos together. So I saved the best for last.
