Mommy and Me Mini Sessions! Yucaipa and Redlands Family Photographer

My Mom and Me Mini Sessions! I have decided to do these this year for the first time. As a mom I know I'm not on the other side of the camera enough….and as a grown woman i know i have just a handful of photos of my moms. I'm lucky enough to have been raised by 2 wonderful women and I tell you what…the photos i have of them from my childhood are priceless.

My mother who had me has been gone a long time and the thing that I wish I had more of was photographs. My other mom (i don't like the word step so please excuse me if it gets confusing) She is still here and healthy and wonderful……i think its a good goal to get her (and my dad if possible) in front of the camera a little more!

With that said Id love to do that for your family too! Give you moms beautiful photos with your kids, and to your kids, something that will become more and more priceless as the years go by. So here is the offer:


There is an opportunity to get your session for free! Do you know 3 other moms who would love to take part in these mini sessions?? 3 paid bookings for this referred by you gets you your session free OR a print package valued at $65 with your paid session. Your choice!  
Go to https://www.facebook.com/KirstenArialPhotography?ref=hl 
for all the details. There will be a link to the event page! 
I look forward to photographing you and your kids!

Oh so much has been happening!!!

So much so that i have been neglecting the blog! Im a bad girl! Its ok I intend fully to make up for the lack of content….its just that the end of last year was so hectic and this year is the year I intend to make things happen.

So some NEW happenings in my life. I got a new car. The first NEW CAR i have ever in my life had….it was a christmas present, yes Im spoiled. What can I say, he (hubby) thinks Im pretty. lol. I left my"regular" job to fully pursue photography and with that there is a new blog and FB page for the Boudoir side of my business which I intend on focusing as much as possible on this year! Its VERY exciting. I am calling it Pink Lace Studio. It is a work of heart and a labor of love as I have been busy painting damask walls and bringing in treasures (you should see the FAB antique couch!!) to make it oh so perfect!  I can't wait to photograph someone there SOON!

So hey if you happen to stop by and "LIKE" the new Facebook page…you know i will just be the happiest girl around!!!

Redlands, Yucaipa Baby Photographer.

Hey guys, I know I have been MIA on the blogging. Its not that i have not had shoots its just that this photography thing (oh the thing i loooove the most!) is really a part time thing for me.....hopefully not forever, but at the moment it is, so between looking for a new job that pays more and gives better/more hours I have been a busy busy girl. However I wanted to share my last two baby shoots with you guys because lets face it....babies are the cutest!!! And lets face it, i get the cutest ones!!! Proof is in the pudding.....so here you go, Exhibit A & B! 

Look and the beautiful brunette, blue eyed babe and babette! Meet Karson and Averie. Their mommies came to me by referral and how glad I am to have photographed them both! 

Thank you Amy Carter-Smith and Robyn Bedolla for bringing me these friends of yours. You two are the most loyal clients I have (since the beginning of me picking up a camera...both of them!) Blessed am I! 

First up, little Miss Averie!









And Gorgeous little man, Karson!

Redlands Yucaipa Baby Photographer.

Ready, Set......Smash!  Cake Smash / 1st Birthday photos!

There is an ever increasing trend in baby photography right not called Cake Smash Portraits. Its basically baby's first birthday photos but add in a yummy, colorful, frosting covered cake. What do we do with that cake....well, with camera ready to shoot the impending mess, we give it to baby of coarse!!!  As milestone session and its quite the big deal!! The outcome of every session is different of coarse and sometimes we have smiles and big messes and sometimes we have tears.....yes, tears! You never know what your gonna get till it happens.

Let me introduce you to Hailey. This sweet, happy, blue eyed beauty is near and dear to my heart. Her mamma is my friend and very close to our Arial family. I was so excited when Becky (mamma) allowed me to shoot Hailey baby's first portrait and cake smash session. It was something I have so wanted to try and when I have never done a certain type of session I usually offer it to a close friend or family member first to give it a go...here is the outcome of my experiment with a Cake Smash Portrait Session!
