A Sandia Mountain Crest Family Session

I was so happy to get the opportunity of photographing the precious Stormie family again! I had the best time doing their portraits earlier this year and i've never shot up at the crest in the snow, so when Cameron suggested a snowy mountain shoot for their winter session I was so excited! Oh, and I still can't get enough of their soft and sweet demeanor with each other, even as we were wrapping up they were still so loving and cute, goodness (see last photo)-- seriously so endearing! Love my time with this sweet family.

I had the best time with this sweet little family of three! Cameron and CJ have been together over a decade, and now, they have this precious little guy to add to the fun! It was great getting to know them and taking their family portraits was a breeze. Loved their natural chemistry!

I don't get to shoot with families as often as i'd like since i'm busy with weddings, but when I do my heart bursts with joy! This family traveled from Santa Fe, NM to get their first official family portraits and some shots of their little guy who was about to turn one!

I loved working with this sweet little family of three!

Happy first birthday Sebastian! 

Amy + Annistyn | Mommy + Me | Albuquerque Family Photographer | Alicia Lucia Photography | Albuquerque, New Mexico

A couple months ago, one of my greatest photography pals reached out to me with a very specific and timeless vision of a mother daughter shoot. Being a busy photographer and mama of three, she knew first hand how incredibly fast time escapes us, and the importance of capturing the tender bond of her and precious Annistyn -- just before she outgrows her lap.. She wanted a sweet, simple, and almost angelic setting. We shot during golden hour, in an open field where the soft sun just poured over them. Amy put her all into planning this shoot and it was perfect in every way (I got some of my all time favorite shots).. Motherhood is so incredibly beautiful, and here is proof.

Amy + Lucas | Maternity Session | Albuquerque Maternity Photographer | Alicia Lucia Photography

Such a special session, with my darling friends Amy & Lucas. They were our first wedding of the season last year, and it is the biggest delight to get to photograph them now, with child! Sweet, precious baby Ella is the luckies to have such loving, caring parents and Amy & Lucas are so incredibly blessed as well. I can't wait to meet her!!!! 

Shaw Family | Albuquerque Family Photographer

I had a great time photographing Ashley & her sweet family. She is actually a local fellow photographer, and one of my second shooters during wedding season, so when she asked me to do her yearly family portraits I was super honored! Aren't her boys the most handsome?? We had so much fun!

Birthday sessions | First Birthday Photographer | Albuquerque, NM

The last couple months have been crazy busy with wedding season that I haven't had time to blog about the sweet little ones who have stopped by the studio for their birthday sessions! 

So much fun and tons of laughs with these darling little loves.

Isabella | 16 Days | Newborn Photography | Albuquerque, NM

Precious, bright eyed Isabella is truly a princess! As daughter of John & Danielle Tennyson (who have both served on the Santa Fe Fiesta Court, and momma was the Queen), she truly is born into Santa Fe royalty. I had the best time snuggling this sweet pea, and i'm so looking forward to watching her grow! 

 

Whitfield Family | Taos, NM | Alicia Lucia Photography - Family Photographer in Albuquerque, NM

A couple months ago I got the sweetest inquiry from a fellow photographer out in Texas. Stephania and her precious family had secured the most perfect vacation rental home for their stay in Taos, NM and they hired me me to go up there to photograph them and their extended family! As the day approached, the weather got more and more questionable (this monsoon season has been throwing me some curve balls), but rain or shine I was headed to Taos to capture these precious memories of them in the beautiful Land Of Enchantment! I'm so grateful the weather held out for us and so happy to have met such a lovely family!

At just 26 days old, precious baby Luciano is as sweet as can be! And look at all that hair.. I love it so! 

The Mente's | Family Photography | Albuquerque, NM

Photographing this perfect family is always so heart warming. So much love and joy in every frame, its hard for me to sort and decide on which ones to share! I can't believe it has been over a year that we did Johnna's & Mario's pregnancy announcement and here they are, a year later just loving on their baby girl!! <3 

Kameron Turns One! | Cake Smash Session Albuquerque | Child Photographer | Alicia Lucia Photography

I still can't believe this little stud is ONE!! I've been photographing him and his family since he was just four months old and now he's walking, I mean RUNNING all over!! I just love this little guy! HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAMERON!!! 

Natasha & Andrew... Parents to be! | Albuquerque Maternity Photography | Alicia Lucia Photography

I was so happy to hear from Natasha earlier this year when she scheduled her maternity session. I've photographed both of her nieces, so it was a treat to get her in front of the camera, in probably the most beautiful time of her life. Isn't she just absolutely radiating and glowing with happiness? 

I absolutely loved photographing these two.. well three, I suppose! ;) SO excited to meet this precious baby girl!!

Lovato Family | Albuquerque, NM | Family Photographer Albuquerque | Alicia Lucia Photography

It is always a treat to catch up with past clients & marvel at how much the little ones have grown!! I love visiting with this family & I adore photographing them!

PS. How adorable was their outfit change?? Sweet Landyn has a thing for superman so they just had to incorporate the superhero theme!! I can already see mom & dad utilizing some of these images in his senior year slideshow! 

Jonathon + Kassandra | Albuquerque Engagement Photographer | Alicia Lucia Photography

I was so happy when Kassandra came to me with their idea of incorporating baseball into their engagement session! These two met in college 6 years ago. Jon played baseball and she played softball & next week they will be saying "I Do"!

Congratulations Jon & Kassandra!!

Nicole | Family Portraits | Albuquerque Family Photographer

A blog preview of this adorable family! I was so happy to meet these four & to capture their love for each other! I had to throw in a sweet "behind the scenes" of Savastian fixing little guy's boots.. It is always so heart warming when dads are so hands on - he was doing anything he possibly could to make the little ones smile, fixing boots, and fixing hair! So sweet :)

Karen | Maternity Photography | Corrales, NM

A blog preview of Karen & Co.'s sweet maternity session. Loved capturing their radiating smiles!! Their love for each other was apparent in every frame - can't wait to meet baby J next month!
