It’s not uncommon for my clients to arrive a little early and get dressed for our session on site. This works great for families traveling longer distance, or with kids (especially the spit-up variety ;p). So when M pulled the boys out of the car and began to get them ready I wasn’t too surprised. But when she pulled O out with his bow-tie, suspenders, and hat, I just about fainted from cuteness overload. I mean, seriously — check out these two. Do you remember them from their newborn shoot? Now, (almost) 7 months later, can they be any more handsome? At their age, for our family photos, I was worried about unstained clothes the kids looked cute in —[…]See more from “Gilroy, CA Family & Child Photographer: Dapper”

Last month, if you’ll remember I had a last minute opening for a mini session in San Mateo. C sent me a note after her cousin, who had recently received her portraits from me told her about it. Thanx, C! I love getting to meet the extended families and friends of my clients. It’s, honestly, one of the biggest compliments I can get, and how I’ve grown my business. It’s also why every year I’m adding more and more mini session events on the calendar. C and T have two beautiful children: a bouncing baby boy, and a studious pre-teen. Seriously, this girl… I had to marvel. K came to our session and brought a book, because she loves reading[…]See more from “San Mateo, CA Mini Session Photographer: Books”

Look at these girls!!! Such ladies they are becoming. I remember the very first time I photographed this family — Little O was 2 and more or less preferred to be on the side of the camera than in front of it. I felt lucky to get 5 photos of her that day. And now? She’s just about a pro at having her portrait taken — she’s got her game face on, which is silly, totally herself herself, and not to mention stinkin’ cute. I enjoyed doing some “see no evil/hear no evil” pictures with her — she just strikes me as that kinda girl — the kind-hearted little mischief maker you don’t want to turn your back on for[…]See more from “Belmont, CA Child & Family Photographer: Lovely, lovely, lovely”

San Mateo, CA Family & Child Photographer: Welcome back!

A couple of years back I photographed this family at the Redwood City City Hall. I developed an instant attachment to the images from that session and by now you’ve seen them on various portions of my site, social shares and marketing materials. It wasn’t just because I felt they were interesting to look at: it was because of how A and G felt so at ease with me, and how the love they outwardly showed to their little guy just resonated with me so much. I look back on that session as a model for the kind of photography I continuously want to deliver. Since our last meeting, A and G welcomed a baby girl to their family. She[…]See more from “San Mateo, CA Family & Child Photographer: Welcome back!”

San Mateo, CA Family & Child Photographer: Sun Hide and Seek

Here one minute; gone the next — that was more or less the sun’s performance for us on this morning’s mini session. I guess that comes with the territory shooting in the fall on the San Mateo beach. While the light “Hide and Seek” was a challenge to work around, I took advantage of the cloud-covered sun to use the tall fennel as the backdrop for this family’s portraits. It’s not something that works out this time of year. G and his baby sister, C, are growing up. Last year, C was snuggled in her momma’s belly. Now she’s is all over crawling, and has the sweetest 2-bottom-toothed smile. There’s a lot of love and admiration with these two. It’s[…]See more from “San Mateo, CA Family & Child Photographer: Sun Hide and Seek”
