Engagement Photos: Christine & Chris (Walnut Creek, CA)

Such a wonderful engagement photoshoot! We met in downtown Walnut Creek, at one of the couples’ favorite restaurants and wandered around the area, finding the best little spots for photos. Christine and Chris were so comfortable in front of the camera, which allowed their connection to one another really shine through. Being able to capture that in photos makes me so happy, because I think those are the best images. Congratulations on this step in your journey and your upcoming wedding!

I always, always enjoy returning to photograph a family following a maternity shoot once the new baby has arrived. This shoot particularly had me excited, because they are all such a sweet family and easy to be around. See maternity photos here, then scroll down for their seriously cute daughter!

I had the chance to meet up with this group again and take some updated photos. I can’t believe how much time has gone by, but it was such a pleasure to have everyone in front of my camera, especially finding reasons to make the kids laugh!

Wedding Photos: Cynthia & Guillermo (Hayward, California)

I get to witness some very special moments, thanks to my photography. This was a private wedding ceremony, held in a local park on a quiet morning. There was such joy in this ceremony and the journey of these two together. Afterwards, we spent some time wandering and exploring the park, letting these two enjoy their first few moments as Mr. and Mrs.

It’s always a treat to return after a maternity shoot to meet the newest family member! I got to spend time with this family, enjoying good company and conversation and capturing some photos along the way. Congratulations on your new little one!

This shoot was certainly a fun one, with a lot of important life events to focus on. Cynthia and Guillermo wanted to meet up and take some maternity photos before becoming a family of five and celebrate their journey together as a couple. We hiked a bit through a park in Oakland, enjoying chatting and settling in for some photos in lovely little spots.

Maternity Photos: Carolynn and Chris (Hayward, California)

There are some couples that I get really excited about working with; Chris and Carolynn are one of those couples. I’ve done maternity, newborn and a few other photo sessions with them over the past few years and always enjoy catching up with them. They are so natural in front of the camera and game for almost anything, which always makes for some great photos. We recently met up for a maternity session to celebrate another baby on the way. Congratulations!

Family Photos: the Gburs (San Francisco, California)

This family photo session happened during the holidays and was the best way to end my photography for the year. The locations we visited were great and were great backgrounds, but this family is what made the shoot for me. Each one of them is silly, fun and at ease in front of the camera! You can really feel their connection just by spending time with them and hopefully through these photos too. Enjoy!

(These two – recently engaged and I got to see the coolest photo of the proposal, which he caught with a self timer during a time lapse image. So, so cool.)

Family Photos: the Dunns (Hayward, California)

After a fun maternity shoot, I got to meet their sweet daughter. The family wanted to wait until all the holiday decorations were up, which made for a very festive photo session. It’s always fun to capture the early moments of a new baby in the family!

Family Photos: the Penticos (Castro Valley, California)

I always have a good time when taking pictures means hanging out with good friends! It’s always an honor to capture families as they grow and change, even more so when it is my friends asking me to capture these photos as their kids grow up.
