I love all types of photos. Especially love the ones I take of my children when they don't know I have my camera in my hand. I love pictures that my kids draw for me and I "post-it" them all over my office. I love the little things to look back on and remember a special day. I love old black and white photos of my father when he was in the navy. I love pictures that my kids take...even though they are out of focus. Because it comes from their heart.
I once took a workshop, and one of the photographers told me to write down and focus on the things I love. I try and do this every morning ~ it sure is a nice way to start out the day.
I would love to meet you and your family.....if you are interested in booking a session contact me at 310-956-0976 or heidi@heidiwalterphotos.com
Seems like there have been a bunch of headshots lately! We have an amazing local agency that shares an office in Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach run by 3 uber talented sisters. It’s fun to get to know these kids…they are smart, confident and well…..talkative. They talk and talk some more…..it’s pretty entertaining. 
This little one did not disappoint. She has 2 little brothers that are to die for too. ♥
This little one was such a trooper with the wind and outfit changes….this age is sort of nice….. you put them down and they stay there.
May 5, 2013 - 9:10 pm - Ho.Ly.Cow. First glance at one of these pics, and I actually thought it was Kenzie. We need to to a shoot with this little one and ours...they could be twins. Fabulous pics as always, Heidi!
Nothing like a blustery day AND a fountain. Luckily it was a warm afternoon. One of my favorite little families and the little girl I have been lucky enough to photograph each year around her birthday.

I have been so lucky lately, sleepy, happy, fussy-less babies!!! These were extra sweet, amazing parents, cutest dog ever and the most beautiful light in their house! Unfortunately they are moving…..I hope to be on the picture email blast at least so I can see them grow. ♥
8 days old……The most gorgeous little baby girl, to go along with the most lovely parents! And they were prepared with the most beautiful blankets and hats made by both grandmothers. I love the bold colors and how the baby just pops. And she pretty much slept the entire time…and never made a peep. #neverhappenedbefore :)
This little guy did not disappoint!!! Sleepy, to awake, yet not fussy at all. He was such a little love….I loved all the sports and memorabilia ideas they had for me. It’s fun for me to incorporate little parts of their life and heritage into photoshoots. My favorite was Grandpa’s UCLA baseball jersey….we tried to put him in a glove, he wasn’t such a fan.
I can’t believe a year as passed… It always seems like we JUST do newborn photos when I get the call for the First Year shoot…time just flies so fast. And her mama did not disappoint, with some darling outfits and the most beautiful fluffy dress I have ever seen! People were literally stopping on the strand and one couple took a picture too with their phone. Crazy….but she was that stunning on this cloudy quite cold day! Little trooper, never fussed once!
A preview of the most perfect little guy….he had the most beautiful eyes…and loved all of his hair. ♥ {Does anyone see that dad is holding his left hand??? ……gotta develop that left hand for pitching….left handed pitchers do pretty well I hear.} :)
My littlest is so big now. she needed some new headshots and it’s crazy to see how grown up she sometimes looks. They grow up so fast, but she is becoming such an amazing little person. ♥
Blogged!!! I actually am back on the blog. Seriously it’s been crazy….I have not had a chance to post any of the many many family sessions I took over the holidays. If I blogged, it means I wouldn’t have a chance to shower…..and if I DID have a chance to shower, usually meant kids had to eat in the cafeteria that day at school, because there wasn’t time to make lunch. And if I did have time to make lunch…means that there was no cleaning up after the daily bomb that goes off in our house…..blah blah blah…you get the idea. Basically there is still an advent calendar hanging on the back of my front door….and some of you will get a Happy Valentine’s Day stamp on the back of the New Year’s card that didn’t quite get sent. And I know I am preaching to the choir, but it seems like I am finally getting caught up and getting to the oh so neglected blog. All the emails of clients asking me if I am going to blog their session….with a wink happy face was sometimes barely responded to….and I’m sorry!!! I will get to all of them even if it means foregoing a shower here and there…ha ha.
Anyhow, had to start with these as mom I’m not sure has even seen ALL of these…we whipped out a few for the holiday card and the others went into a black hole. I love these little guys…little Julia is now one!!! So big so fast…and she’s a doll. Looks exactly like her big brothers. Gorgeous as the rest….well look at mom & dad, gorgeousness runs in the family. Miss you guys…we need to hit that little pub again…soon. xoxo
