I'm looking for a photographer to take pictures of my newborn and toddler and possibly the whole family. Does anybody know somebody (preferably in the south bay and affordable). Thanks!

I have two recommendations - they are both moms that live in the South Bay:
Natalie Boehm http://www.natalieboehm.com/
Leila Sotaddard http://www.beachbabyphotography.com/

Different price points. We use both of them and have been happy with the photos!

We always use Beyond Images. Keith and Tasha are great. They will travel to you and take pics. wherever you want, beach, park, your house. Great prices and easy to work with. www.beyond-images.com. P.S. If you click into their portfolios and select "babies" our little girl is the third slide in - my favorite picture of her ever.

Raquel Landworth-Kleinhenz - she's my neighbor (Long Beach), takes gorgeous photos, and will travel to you (just did a shoot in Torrance). She has three boys (understands kids), took beautiful pics of my family through my pregnancy and beyond with my 2 sons (now 3 and 1). Call her!! ###-###-#### or ____@____.com

Hi,
I have a good friend who is a great photographer. He's still taking classes so his prices are very reasonable, and his work is SO good. He's great with babies and takes his craft very seriously. He will come to you and make it very easy.

Here's his website if you want to look and/or contact him:

Cheers!

We did really well with Kiddie Kandids (inside BabiesRus), they give you the pictures right away, and they have nice backgrounds. Plus they have lots of experience posing children. But they don't do family portraits.

For that, we've tried JC Penneys. Look for some coupons as that will cut down the cost, especially the sitting fee.

Hi T.,

I highly recommend Sandy Heit in Fountain Valley. She has a photo studio in Newport Beach and also comes to your house. She is a young woman with two kids of her own and has photographed our son and our family for the past 14 months, on 3 separate occasions and we absolutely enjoy everytime we get to work with her. www.sandyheit.com

We just had our family pics taken at Clix in the Rolling Hills area. You get the pics w/i an hour and they will even photoshop small areas for you (unlike Kiddie Kandids). I was really impressed with their ability to handle my little hyper-active-girl who wouldn't stay still for anything. You can even purchase a package w/the rights to your photos to print pics yourself (like at Costco).
