I love when photographers can be friends and help each other out with photography needs we can’t do ourselves… like portraits of ourselves! I know this lovely photographer from our church, and she almost completely forgot about newborn/family photos since her little guy was born early December. I was glad to help out and grab …
Christmas is usually a busy season for photographers, but I was so glad to have a some time to capture some memories for this family! Aalya had recently turned 6 months, and what better time to freeze a moment in time?? We explored a new (to me) park in San Jose, and the light was …
One of my favorite parts about spending time with this family is hearing about their really cool family tradition: for every major holiday they dress up and have a photo shoot! They walked up, looking so fancy and put-together for their Christmas photos… I knew we were going to have fun. Having done this many …
I know it’s kind of taboo for photographers to post pictures of their own family, but can you blame an excited auntie for loving her sweet nephew’s smile??? My sister, brother-in-love, and adorable nephew crashed with us for Thanksgiving, and it was a pleasure and delight to capture his one year photos! It was hard …
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 …
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 …
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 …
This was such a brilliant idea! These four ladies wanted to capture a moment in time with four generations of beautiful gals. The youngest – Aki – at 3-yrs-old; her mom, Vida, in her 30s; Vida’s mom – Emmy – somewhat older than Vida 😉 ; and Vida’s grandma – the call her Lola (Philippino …
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 …
This family has a fun tradition of doing a photo session every year for Logan’s birthday. This year, he turned 4! (In July, but hey, who’s counting???) We found a beautiful little marina near Alviso for a wide open, nautical type setting. Great walking trails, and stunning views of San Francisco Bay! It took Logan …
