Maternity Photographer, Orange County, CA | Why I love photography

Shanna Kreza — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 16:04:36 +0000

I love photography for the obvious reasons. I love capturing a moment in time. I love capturing a baby or child just as they are today. I love capturing a couple’s love for each other as they say their vows. I love all of these things about photography. However, this picture here is why I LOVE photography. A photograph documents a moment in time. This mommy is 32 weeks pregnant with twins. She feels huge. She feels uncomfortable. She does not feel beautiful. This photograph captures just the opposite. This photograph documents the real beauty of her pregnancy. She looks BEAUTIFUL, glowing and stunning. I am so glad I made her do this. I am so glad I was able to capture this moment in time when she doesnt think she can make it one more day. THIS is what photography is all about. (and well, lets be honest, I love love love maternity shoots!) I am so in love with this picture.

and just a few more from that day…

Thank you to my beautiful friend for giving me permission to use these photos.

I love seeing this family every year. The kids had their best year yet with me and were TOTALLY into it. The Los Rios District is a popular place to shoot and I love that you can find new colorful backdrops every time you go. Jill (mom) owns an etsy shop and you can see my newborns wearing a lot of her adorable items. You can find her on facebook HERE
Thank you O family for another great session!

Crystal Cove Intimate Beach Wedding | Newport Beach Wedding Photographer

This is my little sister Brooke. She married a great guy that I’m proud to call my brother in law. He’s a great uncle to my girls and super fun to hang out with, but more important is head over heels in love with my sister. I was very stressed about going into labor on their wedding day. Luckily, my little girl came a few weeks before the big day. I cannot even express how perfect this day turned out. The weather couldn’t have been more beautiful for a late October evening at the beach. The bride and groom were completely relaxed. My big girls were hamming it up as flower girls, and my new baby girl slept the entire time so I could photograph this special day. We also had the most amazing sunset.

My baby brother was the officiant and did a great job. A big help on the wedding day was Gianna from Chic Celebrations . She’s a fantastic wedding planner and good friend to my sister. She was such a big help. My friend Kelly from True Bliss Photography was a HUGE help to me that day. I wouldn’t have been able to get all of these pictures without her help. Thank you to everyone that made this day perfect.

This is one of my favorite fall family sessions from November. We had amazing light and those boys were just too cute for words. Mom was telling me how she doesnt have photos of the boys both looking at the camera at the same time and was so impressed with how well they did! The boys were loving it! I had such a great time!

This is my sweet baby that just turned THREE! She is such an easy going mellow kid with a dash of spice every once in awhile. She loves to dance and she loves boots so this session was perfect. I loved just capturing her dancing around. She melts my heart! Thank you for looking and I appreciate any comments you leave as always!

15 | Orange County Teen Family Photographer

This is my beautiful 15 year old cousin! All she wanted for Christmas was to fly to Orange County and spend Christmas with us! We have enjoyed her so much and will be so sad to see her go. We are hoping she goes to a college out here! I plan on taking her out for pictures one more time while she is here because we got a late start and lost light fast! Enjoy Miss Em!
