A few months ago I was hired by some lovely Virginians to come photograph their family while they were in Temecula on vacation. So on Friday morning I headed into the hills of Temecula to find their astoundingly beautiful villa above Temecula Valley. It was like being on top of the world- you could see everything. I could see my house and most of my friends' houses from up there! In fact, in the family pictures I am working on right now you can see the villa up in the hills. Funny.

This family was so beautiful. I just love it when everyone is low key about the photography- it's so easy to get nervous and wound up, but these guys were cool as cucumbers. I took a lot of shots in a number of different areas, kept admiring the view, and at one point I perched myself dangerously on the edge of the infinity pool to get a few shots. You gotta make photography exciting, right? :)

Thanks so much to this family for being so.... beautiful.
