I love the Oak Canyon Nature Center in Anaheim because it's the only part of Southern California that reminds me of Northern California. We moved from the beautiful Sierra foothills of Folsom where oak trees, lakes, rivers, trails and nature areas were plentiful. Here in Southern California you can find most of those things, but not quite as readily. Southern California is beautiful in it's own way of course (ie: rockin' desert locations, downtowns, and the beaches). Amy and David are friends of mine that I knew before we moved to Riverside. We have grown to be even better friends and see eachother quite often. Baylen is 3 months old and Cambria is 2 1/2. We arrived at Oak Canyon just as it started to rain but were determined to get our session in. I had never shot in weather that dark before but was able to "find the light" as we photographers like to say. Baylen graced with me with eye contact in nearly every photo but Miss Cambria was a little more difficult...not out of the norm for 2 year olds, as I know all to well from my own 2 year old at home ;) We managed to get smiles from both kids. Success!
