six and a half

Hey sweet baby in my jelly belly,

We’ve reached the six and half month mark on this journey of ours and I grow more in love with you every day. You’re an active little bean, doing what feels like jumping jacks and mixed martial arts in your confined little space. I know, you can’t wait to get out just as much as your daddy and brothers and I can’t wait to meet you, see your handsome little face, and hold you in our arms.

We’re still working on just the right name for you. We’ve got our selections down to a short list and want to make sure we do our job well in choosing something that suits you.

I’m just grateful that God is keeping the both of us healthy and pray He continues to do so. I’m excited for the last chapter in our little journey, as we soon embark onto the third trimester. Before that, you get to be part of some very important milestones in the lives of those we love and I’m glad you’ll be right with me as we celebrate these happy memories.

We love you Little Bean (oh but try to simmer down the rib kicks just a tad for your mommy please :)

here & there : dealing with the cold

Being Southern Californians, my family and I are not used to living in weather that is anything below 60 degrees. But on this Illinois adventure we are currently partaking, we have had to get used to temperatures as low as 9°C and as high as six inches of snow surrounding our home. In short, I am one tall Filipino popsicle since the snow decided to finally fall here in the Northern Chicagoland suburbs. It’s all good though, our boys are enjoying being able to just step into the backyard and play with the snow. Not to mention how cool it is to see woodland animals (deer) within walking distance of your home!

Happy New Year!

Bueller?… Bueller?… Bueller?

Yes I’m still here :) Just getting accustomed to the wintery weather of Illinois and all the mounds of snow surrounding our house. It’s been a crazy change of scenery moving from California to Illinois, but a fun adventure too.

And with fun new adventures also comes a fun new look for the LCP website. I’ve combined both the main website and the blog into one BlogSite so there isn’t any more need for the back and forth. It’s all here in one happy place. I do have to warn those who don’t know of my design bug fixation… don’t be surprised if things happen to look different again come springtime!

Hope you are all having a marvelous 2012 so far!

Happy Holidays 2011!

I’ve known June since we were little tykes in the 6th grade, and she is not only my best friend, but is sure to make one heck of a stunning bride this coming February. Orn is the lucky groom and June could not have found anyone better as her future hubby. Check out part one of their e-session as this gorgeous couple show off their love and hotness at Seal Beach.

Orn is into motorcycles and June is into butterflies… sporty meets classy, what a great compliment to each other!

Misty and Family – Maternity Session, Yucaipa, Ca

I had the honor of not only capturing Misty and Luis’ wedding four years ago, but also Misty’s maternity photos three years ago when she and Luis were expecting their first son. This year, they were expecting their little princess and again gave me the honor of capturing her maternity and family photos just before their little girl was born! Thanks again Misty and Luis, I truly love spending time with all of you!

Baby J – Newborn Session, Redlands, Ca

I feel so blessed when I am given the privilege to capture the steps of a new life for two people in love. From their engagement, to their wedding day, Colleen and Eddie has allowed me to be a part of some of their most special moments and it’s truly such a great honor. Last month they invited me into their home to meet and photograph their greatest treasure yet: their newborn son. Thank you so much Colleen and Eddie for a wonderful evening.

Introducing, Baby J!

Prepare for all kinds of hotness in this shoot. Jeff and Trish’s mexican-themed engagement session is all due to their Playa Del Carmen, Mexico wedding coming up later in the Fall. Tons of pictures in this one, but as crazy good looking as these two are, no surprises here :)
