Costa Mesa Kid’s Photographer – Duckling Sessions

Costa Mesa Kid’s Photographer – Spring Duckling Mini-Sessions

Session fee: $95
Call 949.698.3968 to RSVP

We wanted to do something new and exciting for the kids this past Easter. Easter baskets and colored eggs just wasn’t doing it for us- so we stepped up our game! Brian found a farm out in Chino Hills that raises ducks, chickens, and pigs. The problem was, we didn’t want to actually keep the ducks when the mini session ended. We asked if we could rent them for a day and they were good with that! The ducks were such a hit with the kids! From 1 to 16 years old, everyone was in love with these cute little things. We built three sets to choose from but most people wanted the clean white background. The sessions started at 9AM and went all the way until 4pm. Judging by the response, I’m pretty sure we will be doing this again next spring!

Gilmore Studios has been a Costa Mesa Kid’s Photographer since 2003.

Simple Sophistication

We are on Instagram
Two years old looks very different than one, and that is exactly why it matters.

By age two, their personality is fully showing up. The expressions, the movement, the little quirks that disappear before you even realize it. These sessions are less about props and more about capturing who they are becoming.  Let us know if you want to book a studio session today 💕
How do you prepare to say goodbye for two years?

This family has six boys, and one was about to leave for Finland on his mission. They scheduled this session a few weeks before he left, knowing how important it was to have everyone together in one place before such a big change.

These are the photos that hold so much weight later on. Not because everything is perfect, but because everyone is there. If you are heading into a season of transition, this is your reminder to pause and document it.
Have you documented this stage yet?

Sitting up sessions are one of my favorites. We started with family, then slowed things down and focused on baby’s expressions and personality. Simple backgrounds, no distractions, just this moment in time.
Have you ever noticed how the most meaningful moments don’t need much at all?
The power was out in the church during this baptism, which made everything feel quieter and more intentional. Just family, faith, and a moment that truly mattered. Sometimes simplicity has a way of stripping things back to what is most important.
Who says Christmas photos have to be serious?

This family showed up in red, brought the energy, and leaned fully into the fun. The funny poses, the laughs, and the personalities are exactly what made this session feel so them. These are the photos you smile at every time you walk by them.
