Hi! :)

Elle Bee Photography has not fallen off the face of the earth. I promise. In fact, business has been better and busier than ever. Which, I guess could explain the lack of blog updates (hardly ever any time!). Within the past 2 years, I got pregnant and now have a beautiful 14 month daughter. I decided to focus on building my pregnancy/motherhood blog and somehow allowed this one to go by the wayside. I am in the process of re-launching my photo site, blog, and facebook fan page, so hang in there with me.

Christmas Photos

I had the joy of taking Christmas photos for my good friend Paige and her family. They have a little 7 month old, Morgan, who is growing into such a precious little girl. Time is flying by so fast. It feels like it was just last week that I was taking Paige's maternity photos! Little Mo is so photogenic and so incredibly loved by her family. She's one lucky little girl. Carlos came with me on this photo shoot and we enjoyed meeting and getting to know some of their extended family. We stayed around after the shoot for a delicious breakfast and had a wonderful Sunday morning with these amazing friends. Here are some pics from the day:

Baby Olivia

I have never taken photos of a newborn this little and this young. At only 5 days old, little 7 pound Olivia was a joy to photograph. She was very cooperative, for about 15 minutes, and was looking at me and even posing at times. But then, she started getting cranky. She was just not having it anymore! Although, I love those natural, crying shots just as much (if not more) than the "happy" shots. No matter what, she is a precious little bundle and I look forward to seeing her grow and grow. She has quite an appetite, so I'm sure it will happen fast. Congratulations to the new parents! Here are a few shots from the day.

Old Town Wedding

I was thankful to tag along with Zoe (www.photographybyzoe.com) as I assisted her in shooting the most photogenic couple of all time. Seriously, it was impossible to get a bad shot of these two. It was a gorgeous Saturday in Old Town San Diego as we watched this couple, surrounded by loving friends and family, get married in an amazingly beautiful church. They were all smiles, the whole day. I'm glad I got to be a part of their special day. Here are some of my favorite shots of the day.

Another August Wedding

Gotta love hot, summer, San Diego weddings! In the midst of this crazy heat wave, I was dreading shooting this all-outside wedding last Sunday. Thankfully, we were pleasantly surprised to have some awesome cloud cover and a refreshing breeze at the Catamaran Resort (mission beach) where we celebrated with Luke and Kerry as they made their vows. And it turned out to be an incredibly fun event to shoot. I was just assisting this wedding for the amazing Zoe (www.photographybyzoe.com), who was my inspiration for getting into photography in the first place. The couple was so full of life and energy, which made the day carefree and very enjoyable. I love that their personalities are even visable in the images. Having the beach nearby was also an added bonus and allowed for some pretty sweet shots. Overall, it was an extremely successful day and I continue to learn so much about event photography. I also learned that photographing a wedding all day on a Sunday makes for a very loooong, tiring Monday with 20 6-year-olds. Here are some shots from the wedding:
