Two years together

Remember how in my last post I mentioned how much I love fall? Well, add to that the cutest couple I think I’ve ever met and the best light I’ve seen in a while, and you get a delightful session with these two! They’ve been together for almost two years now and celebrate each anniversary …

Fall and four months old

If you don’t already know this, fall is my favorite season. Not only does the weather cool off but the colors… ohhhh the colors! Orange, yellow, red, green… amazing. Doing a session at one of my favorite parks with the autumn colors makes me feel like a kid in a candy store. And I thoroughly …

Big brother

No, I’m not talking about the government… I’m talking about these two precious boys! Sahas loved his little brother! I could tell how excited he was to have another little friend to play with someday. And this little 2-month cutie is just sweet — check out that head of hair! Love this!

Vihana is One!

This little cutie turned one year old just a few days before our session! Grandma and Grandpa were visiting from India just in time to join us as we captured her cuteness! This family was such a delight, and Lake Elizabeth in Fremont was beautiful as always! (I love watching my “usual” places change over …

Siblings, friends

Erik contacted me a while back, looking to do some photos of him, his girlfriend (Jessica), his sister (Alishia), and her boyfriend (Kenyon). When I inquired as to any particular occasion, I learned that Kenyon and Alishia are moving to Washington soon, and they wanted to have a fun evening out together to celebrate their …

Foodies!

Probably the most unusual request I’ve had for photos this year is to take a few food-related photos for Linda and Kelly of California’s Artisans: http://www.californiaartisanmarket.com/ Kelly is also the author of GrownUp Cookies. In order to keep their blog up to date, they wanted some cute photos of them with different artisan foods, so …

Playing dress up

When deciding on a location, Marjorie suggested we use her new home — she’s renting a room adjacent to a lovely Los Altos home with the most amazing view ever. Meeting at her place was an awesome idea! Not only did we find some gorgeous backdrops, but it gave us the flexibility to have her …

A walk down the street

I’m not a pet person in general. I don’t have any myself, unless you count a pile of plush cuties that neither eat, poop, or require shots. But when this family contacted me about including their sweet lab in their family photos, I was delighted! I can appreciate the role a pooch plays in a …

Baby brother on the way!

I learned a new baby-naming tradition with this cute family, expecting their second cutie! They choose the name based on their Holy Book and the day the baby is born. There are different letters associated with different days. I could tell that they are anxiously awaiting the day they can make the decision! Big sis …
