…your song
has turned into mine.
the melody you gave me,
more beautiful all the time…
I got to spend some quality time with cutie Remy Madison on a cold winter day, so we snuggled up in some some warm knits and cuddled with her her buddy Cash. I can’t wait to get some images of her when she is big enough to rise Cash like a horse! You may see some more images of her sooner than that as I’m photographing her parent’s engagement and wedding later this year!
I’ll be in California, more specifically L.A. and Malibu between July 28 and August 9 for two weddings. I have a couple things planned, but I’d love to set up some more shoots while I’m there and am offering a special rate. So, if you are thinking about an engagement, beloved, or family session please drop me a line at nicole@nicolepolkphotography.com with the subject CA portrait shoot. Please spread the word!
Meet baby Jack! This little guy was so happy to snuggle up on my bean bag looking outside the window to his great big backyard that he’ll one day be having a ball in before his parents even know it. So happy they will have these images of him then because he will never be this tiny again!
While on my way home from photographing an engagement session in Santa Barbara, I was delayed at the Santa Barbara airport. With nothing to do, I decided to hang out right in front of the airport. It’s this tiny little building with some grass and a couple trees out front. So, I plopped myself under a tree and just reveled in the sunshine pouring through the branches. While daydreaming, I discovered this beautiful little creature, Mazzy climbing above my head! We hit it off immediately, both lovers of trees and after talking to Mazzy’s mom, had a little impromptu photo session! Hope you enjoy these Mazzy and Leslie! I’ll be back in LA and Santa Barbara for 2 weddings the 1st week of August for anyone who would like any kind of portrait session – engagement, family, kid, newborn, etc… Please let me know if you are interested in a shoot.
After Mazzy and co left for their flight, I made some other friends…Cinderella style!
I got to photograph this little guy and his beautiful companion this fall right in his beautiful backyard. Christian is a rough and tough boy through and through, more content to play with sticks than toys, we had a ball traipsing around the wooded yard. I can’t wait to photograph him again when he rides Otto like a horse! I had such a hard time picking favorites for the blog, so here is a rather large smattering of images of the shoot!
All my personal pictures always seem to go to the back burner. So, I’m finally posting images from when my aunt and cousins visited the beach house this summer. It’s amazing to see how much they have changed in just a year. You can see some images from 2008 here and here. Always fun to spend some time with, I can’t wait to see them at Christmas again
