Downtown Los Angeles Family Session Dypiangco Family // Claremont Family Photographer

Photos can capture so many different emotions and looking through the Dypiangco's session, all I can do is smile.  I am sure by the time you have looked through it, you will be all smiles as well. Not only are they a beautiful family, each one of them individually are amazing!

Joe, M and Miranda, we are so thankful to have you in our lives.  Over the last months, we've not only become friends, but we are ohana.  [I've held back referencing a particular Disney movie, haha!] Looking forward to making more memories together.  We love you guys!

Ava's 1 Year Cake Smash in Long Beach // Claremont Family Photography

Ava was SO excited to be turning ONE.  Ava’s beautiful smile says it all. 

She totally loved her cake smash and we absolutely loved being part of it all.  We are so grateful to have been back to the F family house to celebrate another milestone in their family.  

Jason, Heather, Austin and Ava – we can not find the words to thank you and tell you how grateful we are to be part of your celebrations.  We love your family and can’t wait to see you again real soon.

Xoxo, Gina

Perez Family Portraits at Snow Creek Park in Walnut // Claremont Family Photography

We've had the opportunity to be part of so many special moments with the Perez family. We've been there to capture little Zach's first year, Lucy's first communion and now being part of capturing them as a family.  

Each of the kids have an amazing personality, and it's such a blessing to see them continue to grow into amazing, independent individuals. 

We look forward to being part of their next adventure! Thank you Zach, Sandra, Lucy, Amelia and Zach for allowing us to be part of your family. XOXO!

Lauren Rose Newborn

When we first met Leo and Sabrina, it was for their wedding, and right from the start, we were great friends!  We shared the love for korean bbq and Bruxie.  Naturally, when we found out that they were expecting their first baby girl, we were beyond excited! 

We had the blessing of photographing some of the first photos of the beautiful Lauren Rose.  She was a perfect model!  

Leo and Sabrina, we are so grateful to be part of such special moments in your lives, and we cant wait to celebrate again soon!

One Year Grow With Me Portraits at Malaga Cove in Redondo Beach // Claremont Children Photography

Aloha... Hawaiian for love, welcome, farewell.  It's a feeling, it's an action, it's a way of life.  

Over the years we have been blessed with the Aloha from the Yamashiro family.  They have become part of our lives, not only friends but family... ohana.

We cant believe how quickly time passes, we still remember when Mari told us that they were expecting.  It's been such a blast seeing Milly continue to grow into her own beautiful being.  She has her sweet big sister Maya to look up to and learn from.  Fast forward a few months, we are excited to hear that Glenn and Mari are expecting baby #3 on the way.  Maya is already an amazing big sister, can't wait to see Milly take the role of a big sister as well.  

Glenn, Mariko, Maya and Milly... we love you guys and can't wait to be a part of the next chapter in your lives.

Yagami Family Portraits in Boyle Heights // Claremont Family Photographer

The Yagami Family are such a fun and unique family and we couldn't have been more honored to  photograph their extended family.

Their grandmother was living at a retirement home in Los Angeles and with some family flying in from Japan, she was surrounded by her family for some beautiful portraits. 

There were a total of four generations and we couldn't treasure our time more.

The stories between them are countless as Yasuko's granddaughter has learned to play the koto under June Kuramoto from Hiroshima and has played in numerous shows and cultural events. Her grandson is also an accomplished chef that has served many celebrities and dignitaries from Beverly Hills to Japan. 

We couldn't be prouder to see their family grow not only with their accomplishments, but with the love for their family. 

Although their grandmother passed soon after taking these portraits, her legacy and heritage are clearly on display for her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren for many years to come. 

We're so grateful to be able to create these family portraits for the Yagami family and we hope you enjoy them as well!

If you need to update your family portraits or maybe you haven't taken any, I encourage you contact us to do so and start sharing your legacy with your loved ones!

I'm looking forward to hearing from you!

Maternity Portraits at Monte Verde Park in Lakewood // Claremont Maternity Photographer

I love the look of a baby bump.  There is something about knowing there is a happy little baby protected inside that makes it so beautiful.  (Yes, I know, baby bump's aren't as awesome when it's your last weeks into the pregnancy, then they are just uncomfortable - I promise I'm not THAT crazy!  Haha!)

Maurena, although, expecting just about any day from our session together made being pregnant, a loving wife and being mommy to a little princess look effortless.  She rocked her session alongside her amazing husband Dan and soon-to-be BIG SIS Mackenzie. 

We look forward to our time together soon when we get to meet baby Gavin.
