Stop CMV {Los Angeles Head Shots}

admin — Sat, 09 Feb 2013 05:11:43 +0000

I had the privilege of meeting Jilleen last week on the beach for some professional head shots. She’s on the Board of Directors of an organization called Stop CMV. Their mission is to prevent and eliminate congenital CMV, the most common viral cause of birth defects and developmental disabilities in the U.S. As of 2009, only 14% of women have ever even heard of it, so they also want to raise awareness. As a mom, I was glad to learn more about it and to be able to work with this amazing group! Please read more about them at www.StopCMV.org

If this family looks a bit familiar, there’s good reason. . . Tracy is a consultant and business leader with Rodan + Fields skin care and earlier this summer she celebrated earning a Lexus right here in Southern California! I documented that night for her, which you can view here. She’s such an inspiration and the products, developed by the creators of ProActiv Solution, are so effective I signed on to her business team as consultant a few months ago myself!

This post, though, is about Tracy and her beautiful family. She has roots in Southern California, so that’s where she celebrated her fantastic accomplishment with R+F, but she and her family call Bozeman, Montana home. So when I was there a few weeks ago, we did a family session in one of the most beautiful spots in all of the country!

Her girls are as funny, sweet and spunky as they are beautiful! I just love the bond between these two!

We had a great session and wrapped it up with a little fun in front of an amazing view!

My Brother {Los Angeles Head Shots}

Meet my big brother, Doug. He’s an airline pilot, awesome Uncle, and he’s just added aspiring actor to his resume. He lives in Cincinnati with his lovely wife but came out for a quick visit to L.A. last week to visit his nephews. While he was here, we did some head shots to add to his portfolio.

I call this one his “Assistant D.A.” shot. I think he looks perfect for a role on Law & Order!

He showed his softer side, too.

And something a little more casual to finish out the bunch:

My boys are especially fond of their Uncle Doug and hopefully we’ll see him on the big (or small) screen soon!

Glowing {Los Angeles Professional Portrait Photographer}

I photographed the lovely, smart and talented Michelle Haught right before leaving Bozeman. She wanted an updated head shot for her facebook page and business. As you can see, she’s just glowing!

I attribute that to her newest business venture with Rodan + Fields. If you haven’t heard of this fantastic company, you need to check them out. The dermatologists behind ProActive have created a line of skin care for all skin types, not just acne-prone teens! I’m a huge fan of their anti-age night cream, their microdermabrasion paste, and the body sunscreen. Oh, and the night-time make-up removing eye cloths. In case you couldn’t tell, I am a fan!

Not only are the skin products great, Rodan + Fields offers people an opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a booming company, owning their own small (or large!) piece of it. If you want to learn more, be sure to get in touch with Michelle: https://haught.myrandf.com or https://www.facebook.com/michelle.haught

And you can be glowing, too!
