Ahnika + Tegan . Manhattan Beach family photographer

There are a few things that happen in your children's lives that are things that you really never want to forget.  Their birth, their birthdays, their first steps, their baptism, their first everything, really...

This family invited me to their home on the day of the little one's baptism.  What a wonderful time we had...we took a few posed photos in the backyard, but mostly just hung out in their home, me with my camera, capturing little moments with these darling girls.  

These will be the moments this family will treasure, preparing to present their little one for her baptism. Enjoy the photos!

Hey Girl . I Heart Faces photo challenge

"Hey Girl" is the theme this month for I Heart Faces' photo challenge contest.  

This is my girl.  When I look at her, I never want to forget this smile - still with her little teeth, her freckles, and her beloved friend, Beary.  I just love her so much, she makes me smile and laugh every single day.  Sometimes I just want my girls to stay little.  I hope I always remember their little legs, hands, fingers and little girl voices.
