Lifestyle Photo Sessions | Melodi Photography | Bakersfield Family Photographer

Recently I was asked about my favorite picture of all times. And I started thinking. I thought about the images of my family, images of my clients, images of my daughter, etc. I am still thinking…

I just can not find that most favorite one, because there is not just ONE! There is tons of them! But there is one thing that they all have in common.

They are moments…

They are telling a story…

They are REAL…

I like posed images and I take a lot of them. But also I always encourage the interaction and fun family activities in my sessions to find that true moment and unique lifestyle features. In addition, families bring objects from their home that are ‘meaningful and special’ to them. It is fun to be doing some outdoor activities with your family, having your own belongings with you and being photographed to preserve those moments. I want your images to reflect who you are! The way you interact with each other, the things you do with your kids, the way you look at each other’s eyes… Your unique characteristics as a family…

I want those images to be their FAVORITE images. So I am open to any ideas that you may have. Do you wanna go to your favorite ice-cream shop for your session? Or to the coffee house you go everyday? I am in. I can come to your house, too, to photograph you in your favorite couch snuggling with your kids, or in the kitchen baking the sweetest cookies.

Just let me know…

I look forward to capturing you and your family as you are…

💜A year of love, laughter, and firsts—from bump to baby to one! 💜

From the moment your little one was just a tiny flutter in your belly to the day you held them in your arms for the first time—what a journey it has been! This past year has been filled with endless cuddles, sleepy newborn snuggles, heart-melting giggles, and the joy of watching them grow.

From those first tiny kicks to their first steps, every milestone is a reminder of how much love fills your home. Whether it was their first smile, first word, or first birthday smash cake, each moment is a treasure.

Celebrating this incredible journey with beautiful photos that capture the magic of every stage—from bump to baby to one! ✨
