Photos with Carlie

We spent a week in L.A. with Steve uncle’s family for new year. My son chased the duck, played with dogs, and threw rocks at horses, and he just want to forever live in Uncle Bob’s house. On the last day of our stay, I asked Carlie (uncle Bob wife’s daughter) if she wants to be my little model and and so some fun shoots. Despite on my camera’s low battery warning, we still went on a little hike and did a shoot.

Baby Gabriel Photo Shoot

This is my first semi-newborn photo shoot. Beautiful baby Gabriel was 3-5 weeks in these photos. I wanted to get some shoots while he was sleeping, it was not easy. We tried everything. Finally after rocking, eating, peeing and pooping, he was out. Wasn’t he a little angle? There’s something about a sleeping baby… so peaceful.

I love taking photos of babies hands and feet, because they just grow too fast, got to remember how tiny they once were.

The last photo was from my experiment with a cocoon. However Gabriel wouldn’t stay asleep in there, there’s the only non-squirmy shoot. He almost looked like he was sleeping, he was actually faking it, hehe… pretty good acting skill.

The Schaerer’s Family Portrait

I got to work with this wonderful family last Saturday on their family portrait. They were all so sweet and beautiful, and certainly know how to have fun. They were very easy to photograph. I hope I have captured some shared moments for them to cherish forever.

This is the first time I photograph in the JW Marriot Las Vegas Resort & Spa. And I was actually a little nervous about the photos will look too hotel-sy, but they turned out just fine. Here are a few of favorite ones.

We first did some inside ones.

I Want a Cute Little Chinese Girl

I’m Chinese myself, but never had a chance taking photos for a little Chinese girl before Audrey’s photo shoot. As you probably know that I have a two year old boy, and I love my Asian looking little man. However, taking photos for Audrey made me realize how much I want my own little girl.

Audrey was a little shy at first, but after she got more comfortable with getting pictures taken in front of tons of people, she came out of her shell, and gave me so many cute looks. We had such a good time! Here are some of her photos.
