Hurray for little Miss K! San Diego Family Photographer Jeni Bernatz

I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing little Miss K tonight at her home. This family has an amazing and gorgeous yard which was the perfect setting for this little one year olds portait session.

We were able to play for a while in the back yard, got some great family shots, some lifestyle shots of little K, and then some more posed portraits also. We also got to play in the beautiful front yard where this amazing little one year old was showing me her yoga moves, wow!

Here is your sneak peak M family, it was great meeting you all tonight!

sweet daddy and daughter time :)

Little Man D San Diego Baby PhotographerJeni Bernatz

Little man D is one!! He is the same little man at the end of my baby gallery with all the hair! Wow, how he has grown up!! We had such a fun time playing in Rita and Barry's yard (thank you again!) and he was all grins until the big water puddle accident :( He still managed quite a few smiles and giggles and we got some great shots!

The Amazing C Family San Diego Family Photographer Jeni Bernatz

Last night I realized again how much I just love my job! I got to meet another really incredible family that was here in San Diego on vacation from Barbados. This family was so much fun and their 3 boys just melted my heart. They all have "C" names so for blog sake they will be high C, middle C and low C :) These 3 boys are very close to the ages of my three girls, which was fun to watch the other genders dynamics!

Half way through the session while we were all playing, I got hugged in the disguise of a tackle from the 3 year old, a flower from middle C-the 5 year old (super melt!), and even accused of sarcasm from high C...who me??? :) I just love this part of my job!!

C famly here are some sneak peaks, I had a great time with you all last night!!

Another gorgeous High School Senior San Diego Senior Photographer Jeni Bernatz

What a week!! It has been a whirlwind of sessions this week but I wouldnt change a thing!! I headed down to Pacific Beach this weekend for a senior session with Miss K. She is such a beautiful girl and really just so sweet too!! She is going to be a senior at Steele Canyon High School this fall and was ready to try anything I suggested to get some fun shots!


We were able to get some shots on the beach, at the pier, and then up in "town" for a few urban shots too.


Here is your sneak peak, It is hard to choose my favorites!!

Happy 2nd Birthday Miss K! San Diego Childrens Photographer Jeni Bernatz

Little Miss K just turned 2!! I have been doing her portraits since long before she could walk, so this is such a fun milestone to share! She is so very full of personality, just started saying her own name instead of calling herself "me" which to me sounds like tika :) (or maybe there has been way to much barbie island princess in my house!)

Her mom got her this gorgeous ballerina dress, and boy was she proud of it. She pranced all around and completed a lot of beautiful twirls!

Here is your sneak peak A family....I cannot wait for your maternity shoot in a few months!

{Brandon and Shea} Bridal portraits by San Diego Photographer Jeni Bernatz

Last night I had a blast shooting bridal portraits for Brandon and Shea! They are getting married at the end of the month and I love that they wanted to get some fun shots before the wedding. They are going to use some for display at their wedding and I cant wait to see what they choose!

Yes, she is in her gorgeous dress, but we actually got some fun shots of Brandon when he saw her for the first time in her wedding attire, it was adorable!! I realized during this shoot how much fun they were having and it showed in their pictures!

Here are some sneak peaks from last night, more to come!

Staff Picture Time San Diego Photographer Jeni Bernatz

Tonight I headed over to Gymtrix for Staff Pictures for Rocket Cheer. I knew going in that this was a great group of coaches, and they did not disappoint me! This group is so much fun and were open to have some fun outside of the box staff pictures. We did do traditional head shots, but also some fun group shots of all of the cheer coaches.

You can find more information about Rocket Cheer at http://www.rocketcheer.com/ and the great program they have for cheerleaders from 4-18 years old!

Here are some sneak peaks for you, I had a great time tonight!!

Meet Baby Scoot Photography by San Diego Baby Photographer Jeni Bernatz

About 5 months ago I did a newborn session for baby "squish"...well little man squish is now little man scoot! He is 5 months old and rolling all over the place. We did an outdoor, natural light session this time, and big brother "D" is a part of this fun session too! He is such a great big brother and can really make his little brother light up and smile! Even through the loud thunder and a few lighting flashes, we made it with no rain drops at all!

Here is your sneak peak and thanks Miss Rita for sharing your fabulous yard with us!!
