Favorite for Friday

For todays favorite I pulled an old favorite of Evan. This reminds me that I need to take him out for a “just Evan” shoot. He still loves playing the guitar and is really talented at it. Loved this location too.

Favorite for Friday

Happy Friday everyone. The rain has finally come! I am a bit late on todays post, but it is still Friday so all is well. Todays share is from a recent session of my favorite  4 year old, curly haired niece of mine Ella. She was a true sport and smiled for us as she watched her cousins and some other friends have fun running through the fields. She even politely asked, “when can I go run and play?” Well she enjoyed jumping on the bed, had some fun with us and then had a grand time playing with the crew!


Karekn - SO adorable! I love the black and white; what a gift to her mama to have all these beautiful pictures!

Favorite For Friday | Central Coast Family Photographer Tamara Lalanne

This week sure has flown by. Everyone is back in school now, back to soccer practice for the girls and volleyball for Evan. So for todays favorite I found this one when I was going through past photos. Ella is now 4 years old and will be a big sister very soon. She can hardly wait and neither can I. So here is one of my beautiful sister and “little” Ella.

gina - love this shot. she has grown SO MUCH!!

Just Because

Here are a few I played with tonight. Taking a break from other editing and thought I would share some of my Grace. I can’t believe she is already 8…time flies (she has been eight for two months but I am still adjusting.) She is such a spunky energetic funny little girl. Like her kindergarten teacher said to me years ago “Grace is very happy with herself and life!”

gina - she has the most amazing eyes...

Favorite for Friday

Happy New Year! Well my 52 week project has come to an end. I have decided to take on some other challenges. Some that are not weekly and less time so watch here for some new things this year. I am very proud of myself for completing this and encourage you to continue to follow the group.

Today’s “Favorite for Friday” is of my son Evan. He is quite the talented guitarist and we love hearing him play. This is one of my favorites for this week.

I will be back in the office on Monday and will return all business emails beginning Monday.

Have a wonderful week end! Enjoy yours!

Stacey S - Love that you're doing this! And that's a GREAT photo of your son. :)
