raquel + her boyfriends

These dashing gents are the light and life of my new friend, Raquel. Gideon and Zion are 100% boy and could have jumped on the trampoline all day. And then the bed all night. But also full of kindness and good manners and love for their mama (they come running when she beckons "let's go, boyfriends!"). I was given a full lesson in avengers but as much as I hinted, they didn't offer to teach me how to skateboard. Next time.

Raquel has a masterful eye for all things vintage and her home is a collection of her best finds.

Raquel, you stunna'

I mean... I'll take an ounce of that confidence and swagger. That top knot, too, thanks.

such a lovely afternoon with a wonderfully genuine and honest family. thank you for sharing your home and your life with me, Raquel. You can follow more of Raquel's refreshing and beautiful take on motherhood on Instagram @raquellalily

p.s. you can snag those adorable t's from The Bee and The Fox.

Mini Zimi for Mini Style Blog

I got to photograph these five tiny beauties wearing Mini Zimi for Mini Style last month and found myself wanting to buy every piece in my own size. Thankfully their parent line, Mister Zimi, offers these bold looks in adult sizes, too.

If you have tiny ones I hope you follow @ministyleblog on Instagram -- they offer a well curated stylish look at the latest, well-made apparel and toys for littles (often accompanied by generous discount codes!). It's one of my favorite feeds to follow and stock up on gifts for upcoming baby showers!

los angeles maternity session in film | part II

Part two of growing baby Wilcox is here! When Ashley told me she was pregnant (at the END of an hour-long skype meeting; I still can't believe she held it in that long), one of the first things I expressed was how excited I was to see her maternity fashion choices. Five months in and now with an actual bump to dress, she is not disappointing. What a classy Mama-to-be. Here are a few favorites from our film shoot at 20 weeks.
