I Family | Bakersfield Family Photographer

Posted in family

Seven years ago, I had the honor of capturing this family’s sweet girl during her very first birthday. 🎂

It was one of my earliest sessions as a photographer, and I still remember the joy of preserving that special milestone.

Fast forward to today, I had the absolute pleasure of reconnecting with them for another session. Watching their family grow and seeing that same little girl—now so much bigger—reminds me why I love what I do.

It’s moments like these that fill my heart with gratitude and joy. 💕

May is a special month for me… it’s when this little dream of mine officially began.📸

This month marks 11 years since I started my photography business — and what a journey it has been! ❤️

From my very first session to now, I’ve had the honor of capturing thousands of memories, meeting incredible families, watching little ones grow, and building a business that means so much to me. 🫠

Thank you to every client who has trusted me with your moments, big and small. Your support has shaped this business and my heart in more ways than I can say. 🙏🏻❤️
