This sweet family trusted me to take their family photos for the first time AND trusted I’d get them great images in the 20 minute mini session time frame. :) Makes my job easy when I’m photographing 4 of the most adorable daughters ever! It was loads of fun, and I feel so blessed this family came my way (through other awesome HJP families). The photo of the sisters between the bushes with the creamy golden lighting is my fave….

While brainstorming locations, this mama let me know she wanted a rustic, rural looking location. Off to the old abandoned orchard we went! This family hit it out of the park with their outfit selection, reflecting their surroundings through mixes of pattern in muted tones, layers, boots, and soft textures. While chatting about their style selection with the client towards the end, she mentioned her love of the HGTV show “Fixer Uppers” with Chip & Joanna and how she drew… Read more »

I love families. I love spending afternoons with families. We play and run around and I bark out orders (nicely, hehehe) and they listen, and we have a blast. This particular little family are sweet friends of mine, so we naturally had a great time the afternoon of their session. I loved getting their son Wyatt to crack up by OF COURSE talking about farts. Of course. HA! Can you see why he’s friends with my son Jake?! I love boys… Read more »
Supper Club | Silver Trumpet
My friends and I love to chat. And chat and chat and chat. We love our kiddos, but they cramp our chatting style. We get caught up on each others’ lives via group texts and weekly park meet ups, but we needed a guaranteed girlfriend time, time to wear that new shirt we just bought, time to chat each others’ ears off, time to EAT. So, last year, Supper Club was born. The first Thursday of each month is sacred–you… Read more »

Things I’m loving right now (with links). 1. These gray Tom’s suede booties. So comfortable, my feet beg me to wear them. 2. This West Elm throw my dear friend Jill gifted me. 3. The matching boardshorts D & J got for Christmas. 4. Putting YL’s Thieves on my feet each day and diffusing like crazy because I just don’t have the time to get sick. 5. As I re-work and redecorate the girls’ room, I dream of creating a… Read more »
R Family Mini Session | Orange County, CA Family Photographer
I hadn’t seen this cute little family in a while…since last year’s Valentine’s Day mini sessions, in fact! Since then, the little guy became a big brother and they’re now a sweet little family of four! I opened limited dates for fall family mini sessions, and they snagged a spot right away for the beach sessions. They came happy and ready to party, since these mini sessions move quickly. I loved their style, smiles, and I lovvvvve photographing brothers. The… Read more »

Hartwell | Orange County, CA family photographer
Beautiful family on a gorgeous afternoon in Laguna Beach…what more could I ask for? This is now by far my favorite beach location for sessions, whether it be maternity, family, children, you name it. I have tried and true other fave spots as well, but when my clients ask for a beach session, this is always my first suggestion. Thank you, Hartwells, for joining the HJP family this fall!
