my girls san diego children's photographer rebecca helpling

Its not too often I share my babies! Sadly they usually run from me when they see the camera come out. This time I got a few minutes of cooperation before they ran :)
I wish my son was in these as well but I'll take what I can get!!

Trying to smack the camera away. I love how super happy she is in this one :)

Yumminess San Diego Newborn Photographer Rebecca Helpling

Newborns melt me and baby K was no exception! I want to snuggle and love on them and sniff their tiny heads. They are perfect and amazing in every shape and size. A tiny little miracle all soft and warm.
Thank you B for allowing me to come and capture this fleeting moment.
I also threw in an out take, I just love the pure joy on G's face :)
Enjoy this sneak peek! More coming soon!!

Breast Cancer Awareness Month!

This is the weekend I should have been in DC walking, it was so hard to not be there.

This post is to remind everyone that October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. Please please please remember to do your monthly self check and if something doesn't seem right please go to your doctor. The survival rate for Breast Cancer that is caught and treated in the early stages is 98%, this is huge and why it is so important to do your self checks. If you don't know what you are feeling for exactly (I didn't) go talk to your doctor, they have fake boobs that have lumps in them that you can feel.
Click on this link and complete the 5 question quiz and $1 will be donated to the Susan G. Koman Foundation. It only takes a moment :)

The M Family San Diego Family Photographer Rebecca Helpling

This was such a great session. One of the reasons being is that Debbie was one of the first friends I made when my family moved to San Diego in 1986 :) of course there have been so many life changes during the last 20+ years but true friends remain even if you don't stay in as close of touch as you should!
I was honored to take their families photos and to spend time with them all!
Enjoy this sneak peek! xoxo

Beautiful Coronado Beach San Diego Family Photographer Rebecca Helpling

It was my pleasure to photograph this family! What adorable kids, I think one of the reasons I love the beach is because you get to see the sheer pleasure of little kids when they put their feet in the water and get wet from head to toes :)

Breast Cancer 3 Day Update

Its so hard for me to even write this, but after careful thought and a few tears it is time for me to end my journey to this years 3 day walk in Washington DC. Recently I have been having severe pain in my right foot and I finally forced myself to go see my doctor. The conclusion is that walking 60 miles will only worsen my pain and push up surgery and with three little kids at home being off my feet for 6 weeks from the surgery really isn't something I can force my family to deal with if it isn't necessary. So we decided that it would be best for me to pull out of this years walk.
To all who donated to my fundraising efforts THANK YOU!!! I think the hardest part of having to pull out is my fear of letting you all down. Just remember that your donations have gone to a wonderful cause and bring us closer to a cure for breast cancer with every dollar donated!
If you would still like to donate please find another walker in your area or consider donating to my good friend Nicole Peck who I was planning to walk with. She will still be walking and is super close to her fundraising goal and would love the support! Just click on her name and it will take you to her fundraising page.
Again thank you for all your support it really does mean so much to me!

xoxo
