Solana Beach Photographer MKP Images; Biggest Compliment

My biggest compliment is having a repeat client year after year. Repeat clients make me feel good about my job and I love being able to capture them during the holidays. I love seeing children grow and families change. I also like finding new places to photograph clients so they don’t have the same looking photos each year. Last time I saw little “A” she wasn’t walking or talking. Now she’s a big girl, on the run and giving mom and dad simple commands. Thanks for letting me share another holiday season with you. Enjoy your sneak peek. (20 or more comments on this post will get the family a free 5×7 print)

Carlsbad Photographer MKP Images; Daddy’s kids ; )

I’ve known this family for 9 years and it’s always fun to see how much they’ve grown. Our oldest kids were toddlers together so it’s amazing seeing how fast they grow. It’s also fun to see the family dynamics and all their personalities. These kids know how to have fun and I see so much of their dad in them (the jokesters), Hence the fun photo ; ) Here’s your sneak peek, I hope you enjoy the photos.

Carlsbad Newborn Photographer MKP Images; Twice as Nice

These 9 day old twin boys were incredible models. They were born to be in front of a camera. So much so that when I left they cried, I think they were sad their session was over ; ) I felted honored to be able to document this time in their lives for this family. I LOVE the first image of the boys holding hands, they look so peaceful. Here’s your sneak peek, hope you enjoy it. (20 or more comments on this post will get the family a free 5×7 print)

Brotherly love

Carlsbad Newborn Photographer MKP Images; Carlsbad LOVE

This Carlsbad family was such a joy to get to know. Not only were mom and dad present but so was  Grandma and Grandpa who were visiting from Illinois and spending time with their first Grandchild. Enjoy the moments with little Miss “S” and enjoy your sneak peek.

Carlsbad Photographer MKP Images; Family Fun

Another beautiful family and beautiful day here in Carlsbad. It’s mid October and it feels like it’s still summer. This family was full of fun and energy and kept me on my toes : ) I love the expressions the boys would give me and while I was reviewing the images to edit, the individual images of the boys made my heart MELT. The moments were fast and fleeting but I got some amazing shots from the day. Can’t wait to get through the remaining gallery. Here’s your sneak peek…..

San Diego Photographer MKP Images; Admiration and respect!!

Jennifer contacted me because she was an auction winner from the San Diego Breastfeeding Coalition auction which I had donated to. She informed me she had two year old triplets boys and a 3 year old boy. I meet this family this morning and to be perfectly honest, I wasn’t sure what to expect.  I have never photographed triplets before and figured I was in for a surprise, 4 boys under the age of 3…… hum. I was honored to be able to photograph this family and watch the whole dynamics between them. Needless to say I am totally humbled by the parents and how well behaved and mild mannered all 4 boys were. This session left me with a FULL heart and complete admiration for this family in how they were raising these boys. Here’s your sneak peek, I just couldn’t contain myself and had to see the images as soon as I got home : )

I love how big brother has a firm grip on his brothers, makes me fell like he’s protecting them. Then the gentle little finger grip from the smallest one just shows me how gentle he is.

This one makes my heart swoon…..sigh!!

San Clemente Photographer MKP Images; Tea for 2

This session was specifically shot with the intent of making birthday cards for these twins. Mom is throwing them a special princess birthday party so what better way to send out invitations than with the girls having a tea party. There are so many fantastic shots of the girls that we’ll will be able to make a whole album of just them playing tea party : ) Enjoy the sneak peek.

Oceanside Photographer MKP Images; Sometimes you just have to bark : )

You know, sometimes you just have to bark to get that specific shot you’re looking for. That was the case for a couple of the shots in this gallery. This family was so much fun to photograph. Not only do they make my job look easy, but they are fun and up for anything. Especially when I said we were going to start in the parking garage….huh? I loved all the images from this urban session and can’t wait to share the remaining shots with the family. Enjoy your sneak peek.

Can’t forget their furry loved ones ; )

Carlsbad Photographer MKP Images; Pac Rim Families ROCK!!!

I had so much fun meeting all these Pac Rim families at the beach for their mini-sessions. I was able to be a part of the schools fund raiser this year for their Fall portraits. We had a blast and was able to get some fun portraits. Here’s hoping you guys all enjoy your sneak peek.

Carlsbad Photographer; 5 day old LOVE

This little princess was 5 days old and a photographer’s dream. She was as pleasant and cooperative as any newborn I’ve worked with. The key to achieving this success is being 5 DAYS OLD. You heard me. Babies 5 days old are still use to sleeping a lot and they don’t stir when you move them and pose them. These images are some of my new favorites. Hope you enjoy your sneak peek ; )
