Arna & Sama

These two sweet girls have summer birthdays that are very close together, so to celebrate, we had a family photo session!

Albert is One!

I had a lovely time with these British ex-pats who now call Silicon Valley home. Their first little one — Albert — celebrated his 1st birthday the day after our shoot! He was a little angel and I loved getting to know this family. I also learned a new word: chuffed. Any other Brits out …
