I have known this amazing woman for the past 20 years. Isn’t it amazing to look at that kind of number? We grew up together and have shared every major life milestone with one another. And it all started on a sunny summer day where we met in our apartment complex’ pool. We spent that summer literally inseparable and have been close ever since. While our busy family & professional lives, along with distance keep us apart most of the time, I know we are the kind of friends that will always be there for one another.
I’ve been S and P’s family photographer for a little while now too. It’s been an interesting turn, since S attended an amazing arts high school, and then went on to the Rhode Island School of Design. Though she’s an architect today, she took photography classes herself, and actually one of my favorite photos of me was taken by her. So I feel pretty fortunate to be able to turn things around and photograph her family.
You’ve seen these guys, first with her growing bump with O, then as O turned one, and most recently on my last Mother’s Day mini sessions. Since then, S and P’s family has grown by another two little feet: with little P joining their brood. This is her debut to you guys… and at 10 months old, she’s debuting that she’s ready to enter the world of the walkers. It won’t be too long guys that you have to chase two little peanuts in opposite directions. May luck be on your side: I have lots of sympathy for you.
We held this past session at College of San Mateo. I am seriously loving working here and can’t wait to invite more clients to do sessions here. While this has been my go-to for rainy days and mid-day sessions on the Peninsula, I’m now exploring the grounds in better light and weather. There’s a lovely grove of eucalyptus trees where we shot these images, but the architecture is also amazing, and you’ll see some more examples of the diversity of that campus coming up soon too. And I’ve only just began to scratch the surface of that campus. I just get giddy when I find places like this. So stay tuned for more of this campus, and ask me for it when you book with me. You won’t be disappointed! Promise.
