The Pahlaus, dear family friends from my childhood church, asked if I would be interested in photographing their extended family (on Olivia Pahlau's side), and I jumped at the chance! This family is so full of passion to serve our Lord, whether Dan Pahlau is leading worship and Olivia is lovingly welcoming everyone at church, or simply loving everyone and anyone amidst daily routine. The moment I met Olivia's side of the family, this same sweet love was beautifully evident. ❤

The Apodaca family is one of those families you can connect with as soon as you meet them. Though I had never met them before, they were just naturally neighborly and inviting. And these KIDS. Meeting these girls was like meeting Barnum's two sweet daughters from The Greatest Showman movie. In fact, this is one of the girls' favorite movies. Gotta love this family . . . What is your story? How did you two meet? - Johnathan and Kendra explained that they met in a college study

Wow. This is a session I will never forget. My aunt who lives in California reached out to her boss Kandy, asking if she and her husband would like some photos taken. Kandy jumped at the chance, and I am so thankful she did. These two are the sweetest, and getting to capture their love at one of my favorite places in the world - Newport Beach - was so lovely. #MeganMaddocksPhotography #SouthernCaliforniaPhotographer #SouthernCaliforniaFamilyPhotographer #NewportBeachPhotograp
