Late summer and early fall is one of my favorite times of the year for outdoor family photos here in the Bay Area. The natural grasses are the prettiest soft golden shade and that beautiful California light is simply perfect this time of year. I met this wonderful family in the fall of 2019 when I photographed their daughter’s one year session. They reached out again when they found out they were expecting another baby to reserve a newborn session. Unfortunately this little one missed out on his newborn photos due to the 2020 Shelter in Place order, but we were able to reschedule for an outdoor family session in September instead. Little brother had me smitten with his beautiful blue eyes…such an adorable age to photograph. 2020 was a crazy year but it made us realize even more that family is everything.♡

Mama’s dress and all children clothing was provided by the Studio Wardrobe that is available to all clients to borrow from.

If you are interested in learning more about reserving a family session, please contact me so we can start planning our session together. I would love the opportunity to document your family’s love and connection.
