PHOTOGRAPHY

Hello there

Hello!! I’m Cherie!

Welcome to my own little photography wonderland! This year will mark 10 whole years of photographing families and newborns! What can I say, this is truly a dream job that quite literally found me!

I’m a Huntington Beach girl who LOVES the beach!! I honestly can’t imagine living anywhere else! I’m drawn to nature and the water. Nothing makes me happier than traveling with my family… My dream would be to travel all around the world pursuing photography.

I Love: everything about motherhood, Starbucks, Sunsets, Travel YouTubers, Traveling, Hiking and Travel excursions like white water rafting!

My photography style is golden light- airy, natural and true to color. The photography world is always changing but I’ve tried to keep my style consistent and natural.

Well… adding the song to this made it extra emotional 🥲 Sorry @jeanine_mandrup

Ahh Watching these kids leave the nest is the sweetest kind of bittersweet. I can’t believe these two will be in different states. A million of their photos coming soon!!

During Spring… Fall dates and locations are posted- this is that time where I can feel around and see what changes to make… sometimes what’s “better” isn’t necessarily convenient. 🫠For example less crowded weekdays in popular beaches like Laguna or scheduling in September vs end of November 🤪. This year I only have Christmas Minis in November. I was going to wait to post those…but now that my regulars have had an opportunity to book… Christmas Minis are officially available on the link to book!

Sharing these to show how the outfit changes make a difference for senior photos. I like that the jeans(or shorts) make it easier to move around…. Lay on ur stomach etc..Yet..I like the long dress because it looks more formal and boho beach style… the short dress is easier for the water shots and cowboy boots!

Ahh I’m excited that Fall sessions will be longer this year! Some places like Crystal Cove have amazing views from the cliffs and from beach… but I’m usually limited to one spot with the mini sessions.

Ahhh Young Love!! Even though these were meant to be senior photos… this is probably my favorite out of all the photos we took! I won’t embarrass them by going on a rant on how precious these times are 🥰🥰🥰🥰 but we all know.. it’s the absolute best!! Soo sweet!! @kdollins
