Spring Lily :: Orange County Photographer

My favorite flowers are Stargazer Lilies.  My husband knows this.  And every so often he stops on his way home to pick up a bouquet for me.  (The reason this weekend was to bring a little happiness in the gloomy rain.) Until yesterday, I never really paid attention to how the blooms open.  Breathtaking.

Welcome, Spring.

High Key/Low Key :: Orange County Portrait Photographer

I may be addicted to high key editing....just sayin'.  I just love the dreamy feel!  Low key is fun, too, but I struggled a lot with it.  Always a learning experience, right?

Spring is Near :: Orange County Photographer

The weather on Sunday was gorgeous.  My brother and his friends were visiting from Utah (leaving the snow and blizzards behind), so we spent a couple hours that afternoon outside soaking up some sun.  I am so excited for spring!

Multiple-Light Setups :: Orange County Portrait Photographer

This was my first shoot using multiple light setups.  It was definitely a step out of my comfort zone, but I learned a lot and am excited to experiment more in the future.
