The New Blog!!

Hello!

I am super happy to announce that the Lady of Light Photography blog has a new look! After years of posting on this blog and building it to be what it has become, I have switched over to a self hosted Pro Photo blog. It took a lot of time to make that decision and a lot more time to figure out a new program and customize the new blog to my exact liking, but it is finally done and I couldn’t be more excited. So thank you everyone for following this blog and showing your love and support. I hope that you will subscribe to my new blog and continue to follow my work and writing. Cheers!

 

Meza Holiday Portraits

The Meza family was another great family that I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing this season. We met up at beautiful Mori point in Pacifica, CA. They are stylish and fun and their two girls are adorable! Adela wasn’t too sure of me in the beginning but after she ate her mac n’ cheese she was game for anything 🙂 The next shoot that involves a skeptical toddler will definitely involve mac n’ cheese… brought by me! Thank you guys for a great shoot!

 

 

Wodarczyck Holiday Portraits

This holiday season has been so wonderful to me and one of the many reasons was that I got meet and photograph some wonderful new families. Echo contacted me through my blog and we clicked right away. After various emails back and forth we finally met at Coyote Point Park in San Mateo,CA. I can’t believe I’d never been there. It is absolutely beautiful and the light was perfect. We had such a blast and Echo, her husband and their 2 girls were so sweet and easy to work with. Everything felt very natural and, dare I say, organic 😉 I am so happy that I got the chance to capture their love and I look forward to photographing them again…thank you Echo!!

Kyler-Kiddy Mini Session

This was my third year in a row photographing the adorable Kyler. Being able to photograph the stages of events from when a baby is inside the womb up until they are super fun toddlers really is one of the best parts of my job. And of course letting kids be themselves and have fun, romping around the park, makes my job pretty easy 🙂 Thanks again to Kyler for being so darn cute…enjoy!

The Aceves/Smith Family

I had the pleasure of photographing Lars, Cristina and their amazing little guy Tyler last month. I photographed Lars and Crisinta’s wedding a few years back and it is so wonderful to now see them as parents. The role fits them so well as they are both so kind and down to earth. We  had some awesome weather here in California last month which made our Santa Cruz Beach session pretty nice 🙂 Enjoy!

 

Brooke-Maternity Portraits

I met up with my beautiful friend Brooke  and her husband Thane back in October to photograph her in the last few weeks of pregnancy. I am excited to announce that  they are now the proud parents of a sweet baby girl who was born last month. And whom I will be photographing very soon 🙂 Most of these photos were taken in their backyard which is basically a redwood forest. Marin is so gorgeous and so is my dear friend…enjoy!

Judel-Kiddy Mini Session

I had so much fun photographing Judel again! We met up at my favorite place to shoot in Davis, The UCD Arboretum. And we basically just played the whole time. We peeked into holes in the ground trying to figure out which animal was living inside. We collected acorns. We tried to reach flowers that were in the trees. We climbed trees, made leaf angels and ended the shoot by hanging upside from a bench. I don’t know about him but I was beat afterwards 🙂 It was the perfect Autumn day. I love watching and documenting children grow and I can’t wait until our next session!

P.S. The best part was when I let him take a few shots with my film camera and he asked why we couldn’t see the picture on the back 🙂

 

Randi & John- Engaged!

Randi and John are everything that you you wish a couple to be, super fun, open, adorable and they crack each other up! Which made our shoot, at the UC Davis Arboretum, really easy and truly enjoyable. This is by far one of my favorite places to shoot pretty much anywhere. And it also happens to be where John popped the question. So it was the perfect setting for their engagement photos. I look forward to photographing Randi and John’s Fall 2014 wedding. Thanks you both for an amazing day!

Patty and Adam-DaVero Estate, Healdsburg

These two beautiful souls were married in August at the georgeous DaVero Estate in Healdsburg. Surrounded by a small group of family and friends they said I do underneath  beautiful trees and perfect blue skies. The fully outdoor wedding was perfect in pretty much every way. After the ceremony guests were escorted to the greenery where they enjoyed cocktails, small bites and of course bean bag toss and bocci! I loved how Patty and Adam put their touch on every aspect of this wedding. Nothing too over the top just simple and special.

I was truly honored to be a part of this day…I hope you both a long life full of happiness and adventures!

Annel & Carlos- Casa Real, Ruby Hill

Annel and Carlos’ beautiful wedding was held at Casa Real, Ruby Hill Winery. This was my 2nd time shooting a wedding at this great venue and it was just as fun as the first time! Annel and Carlos’ day was centered around the merging of their large families. It was a day filled with love, laughter and dancing and I couldn’t be more honored that I was there to capture it for them. Thank you Annel and Carlos, wishing you lifelong  happiness.
