Sweet Baby K

I got the privilege of photographing my cousin's little miracle baby today! This is Little Miss K. She's about 7 weeks old now and just a doll as you can see. She was so perfect for the whole session! Here are a few of my favorite images from the day. I hope you enjoy them, too!

3 Session Previews [San Diego Photographer]

I got to photograph 3 great families today. First, I met with this new sweet little guy who is just about 7 weeks old. Such a cutie...isn't he :)! He has a super fun big brother, too. Then, I went to Santee Lakes to photograph two other families. They were great! And since the park closed just an hour after we got there, they were some awesomely quick posers ;-). I think they did a great job...what do you think? Thanks for trusting me with your memories! I hope you enjoy the preview :)

West Coast Schools

I spent last week learning under an amazing photographer, Scott Robert Lim, at West Coast School of Photography here in San Diego. I am in love with his style of imagery! These images are all still learning shots, but I can't wait to find me some senior models to put some of this new knowledge to work!

My Hannah [San Diego Photographer]

I photographed my sweet little Hannah today, too :) Of course I have mommy goggles, but I just love these photos of her. I'm sure you can tell she loves to pose for me :). I had hoped that Andrew would sit for me, too, but he forgot his shoes and couldn't walk in the tall grass. I think I'm the only mom in the world whose children are always forgetting their shoes!!

All American Girl [San Diego Photographer]

This evening I photographed this beautiful child in San Diego...actually right here in Miramar. I had to show off a few of my favorite images. Miss K was all smiles today as I scouted out a new location for sessions! I love this place, and I'll be back there there soon!

Today's Mini Sessions [San Diego Photographer]

Thanks for those of you that came out for my first studio mini session here in San Diego! It was fun getting to photograph all your wonderful kiddos, and I think they all had a good time dressing up like Dad :). I just wanted to share a few of my favorite images from today.

My Hero - Mini Session [San Diego Photographer]

Hi friends! I've got a fun mini session planned for the end of this month. I've been working to get this one set up for a while now, and I'm so excited to finally share it with you! First off...you may be wondering what a mini session is exactly. Well, it's basically just a short and sweet session with me. This session will just last between 15-20 minutes since the set up will the same for all images. You can expect to see 5-10 final images in a password protected gallery that you can share with family and friends. You'll also get one image that will be shared on my blog that you can use for online use. The online gallery will be active for 4 days for you to choose which image you want to use for your small print collection and to order any addition prints.

Now that you know what a mini session is let me tell you about the theme of this session. It's "My Hero". Since these sessions will be held on base at Miramar, I'm thinking that most people will choose to bring in some type of military uniform, but don't let that limit your thinking. Any job that requires a uniform would be perfect for this type of session - nurse, fireman, police, etc. I can't wait to see what you all come up with!

I only have 10 spots open for this session so please don't wait to schedule your session - email me (christy@christyparrottphotography.com) .

Today's Session & My kids [San Diego Photographer]

Just wanted to share a few recent images of my kiddos and my afternoon session today.

Andrew helped me with my new lighting setup...it's going to be so much fun! And he was such a great little model :)

My sweet girl in my little studio. She was a great little poser. She loves being in front of the camera....when she wants to ;-).

And this is Mr. B...He's Hannah's new boyfriend. Well, actually they got married. It was really a cute little ceremony. They colored paper rings and exchanged them with an, "I marry you." Then Hannah gave him a big kiss on the cheek with moms' yelling, "NO!"

He is quite handsome. Hannah thinks is great that they look alike, too! She even emailed her Daddy and told him all about it.

Miss K [San Diego Photographer]

Let me introduce you to Miss K, 2010 California Tropic Tri-state Queen. We had a fun little photo shoot this afternoon in my little studio (actually the garage) & out in the neighborhood. She's such a great little poser...always full of smiles!





I had so much fun photographing your session today! Thanks for stopping by!

Our Wednesday Friend [San Diego Photographer]

So my mom informed me today that I haven't blogged in a long time, and I guess she was right :). Sorry, I'm not keeping as updated as I should. I've been running spring promotion in hopes of building up my business once again (look back a few posts to see the details). This move has been harder to rebound from than the last. I'm planning on doing a studio mini session for my military clients at the community center soon! I'm hoping that it will be the perfect time for Mother's/Father's Day, but I'll post more on that later.

For now....let me tell you about our little Wednesday friend. This is little B. He's also been on the blog before so you may recognize him. He comes to play with the kids while his mommy goes to class. The kids just love him! Hannah sings her songs to him, and he really listens. Oh...and you should see Andrew with him. He has such a gentle spirit and is so wonderful with babies.

So isn't he just a little cutie! He just celebrated his 1st birthday, too! Enjoy :)
