Daye is one of the most adorable little baby girls I had ever set eyes on! Big blonde curls, bright blue eyes and the most squeezable cheeks! Vicki, Daye's mom, is a friend of Justin's through YGG and production and had asked us to book a sitting with her and her daughter. We shot the session mostly at their home in L.A., we even caught some moments with dad as well. What a sweet little girl, introducing Baby Daye!

I'm too busy to leave a message right now, but if I must say so, there's nothing quite like waking up in the middle of the day (if you've got that luxury) and clicking your mouse to bring your computer out of it's slumber...with all the sites of importance you've got in your toolbar and still you can't help but press the one that reads "Amelia Lyon", as the first shot of 'information super highway' breathes into your electronic lungs and fills you will supreme energy...you sit back and say to yourself "they've done it again. How do they do it again and again?". Lean back in your office chair and just think to yourself, rocking back and forth, up and down, and still in awe that what your seeing on your screen isn't your imagination. It's just good okay? That's all the stuff I would say if I had the time, but I don't.

I want to thank Amelia and Justin for doing this session for us. All the photos are so beautiful, and I am grateful to have these moments captured forever. I'm glad everyone likes them! The one posted here of my daughter and I makes me burst with joy it's so fantastic! Thanks A&J! We will have another session soon!

The Schloss family has been a super awesome family since day one! Our relationship with them started about five years back when I (Amelia) was hired to nanny for Baden (the beautiful little girl you see in the first shot below). During that same time I began to be interested in photography, so Baden got to be my practice-on subject for all of my school projects. Also, almost every year since then the Schloss family has hired me to shoot their family portraits at the end of each summer. It has been such a pleasure coming back around year after year watching their family and children grow, especially Baden, since she was my side-kick for an entire year!

The session was shot at their brand new house in Manhattan Beach. I really enjoyed this because it was an environment that everyone was comfortable in and it felt more relaxed that other family portrait sessions I had done in the past.

Finally made it onto your blog!! We were sorry to lose such a great nanny, but happy to have you in our lives as our official family photo biographer! You are truly gifted and happy that Baden was there at the begining. We have some great shots from your early "experimental" years. Thanks again and see you soon!
