Beautiful family Christmas photo session in Irvine.


Man, what more can I say about this session that the photos don’t already tell? I’ve been photographing Natasha and her family for the past 5 years and each year it seems as though our photoshoots get more and more fun! This time around we ended up at Turtle Rock Community Park and what a pick that was! I loved everything about it! Plenty of space, lots of light, and beautiful backdrops. As always, Natasha and the fam brought an outfit change with them and we got the session wrapped in about 2 hours. The cool thing about this year is the fact that the boys are all grown up now. I am a big fan of kids, they keep these sessions “interesting”. So in this case, as you’ll see, they didn’t hold back. All-in-all this has to be one of my favorite family shoots to date!
