It was fun to find out that we were neighbors with this couple for the past few years! So happy for their addition - Baby Nolan - and their new home! Wishing them a very happy life <3

Happy Labor Day!! Below is the link to my recent sessions on the blog. Check them out and contact me if you have a sweet baby/family that you'd like me to photograph <3 :) http://www.melodiphoto.com/blog/

They waited for a long time to have a baby, but it was so worth it. You'd cry if you saw how happy this mama is to have her baby Charlotte. She truly ADORES her <3 So happy that E. family finally had their wish come true.

Having a bad day? Just take a look at this sweet babe... brand new and extra squishy! <3

Today I’m sharing a preview of the twins newborn session I recently had with baby Presley and baby Parker, who were welcomed into this big world a few weeks ago to mom Arielle and dad Brad. As you can imagine, Mom and Dad are equal parts exhausted and delirious with their sweet babies and their toddler Sienna and I feel so lucky to have been given the chance to be a (small!) part of their parenthood journey.

I love getting to know authentic people, traditions, interesting rituals and customs. Photographing baby Vismadh Kaur in her mom's Indian wedding veil and family heirloom blanket was great <3 Check out the blog for more photos of this sweet baby and her beautiful parents.

How do you want your maternity session done? Posed, candid, or both? With your partner or without? Would you use props? Tell me what your perfect session would be like! Here is my recent blog post from Jessica's gorgeous maternity session: http://www.melodiphoto.com/jessica-bakersfield-maternity-p/

Baby Itzelle with all the questions in her mind: 'What's this lady doing to me? Why am I in a basket?' :D

Loving all the newborns I get to photograph recently. I have three more newborns this week and I look forward to meeting them <3

Goodness... Last week, this baby boy (cute little bear) was just straight up adorable. I turned into mush during the session! Now... I am melting all over again now that I'm sorting his photos to blog them soon! Ugh - check this one out!

One of my favorite quotes, Motherhood means finally understanding why mama bear’s porridge went cold. It’s not easy, but I know you are killing it. Way to go, mom!

This room is so full of love. Can't you tell?
