Blog of Orange County photographer, Tara Whitney. Features client sneak peeks and sessions, the "check it" section (where Tara shares her favorite things found online), and personal stories from her life as a woman and mother of four.
You can read more about the Dalebouts here, where their home movie is featured.Their film is one of my favorites. Their natural connection was a breeze to capture. These people love each other, have fun with each other, enjoy being with each other, and made me feel really good – just being around them. To put it simply, I love them.
“And I get to kiss you baby just because I can…”

- Hi Tara- I have never left you a comment before, but I just thought I should share. Your photos are absolutely beautiful...and not because you edit in a way that makes your photos pop- because you "take" beautiful pictures. You are TRULY talented! When are you coming to Texas! :)
