Family Photos: Thurnaus (Oakland, California)

While this family was back in town visiting, we set up a session for some family photos. The location request was for “something rustic” and when I brought up the horse arena in Joaquin Miller Park, it turned into the perfect location, because this little girl is currently SO EXCITED by horses.

Multi Generational Family Photos (Hayward, California)

This was a special shoot, with four generations gathering together to celebrate some milestones in the family. It was a rare opportunity for this much of the family to all be in one place, so I was asked to spend some time taking family photos. Along with the larger group photos, we took the opportunity to do smaller family portraits as well. As you can guess, the cousins ended up stealing the show and were having so much fun together.

For this maternity session, Melissa really wanted a spot near the water but that had lots of trees for variety. The levels of water at Lake Chabot were really high and we found some really cool spots where the staircases just ended in the water. It added a new and unique element to a spot I enjoy shooting at and made for some lovely photos. Their pup also joined us for some family photos.

I got to meet this little guy one week after he was born, which was a real treat. It’s always special to capture the very early days of a new family. Congratulations on becoming parents and welcoming such a sweet little one into your family!

Maternity Photos: Turquoise & Brandon (Hayward, California)

It was so much fun to meet Turquoise and Brandon to celebrate their growing family! Our maternity session was on a lovely Saturday morning (we were lucky enough to avoid the rain) and they were so natural in front of the camera. The connection between these two is so evident in these photos, which makes me excited for their baby to be born into that love. Looking forward to meeting your little guy!

Family Photos: the Evans (Dublin, California)

This is the third year I’ve gotten this fun family in front of my camera for holiday photos – does that mean this is a new tradition? All joking aside, I enjoy sessions with these four, since we all know each other and they make my job easy by being so great in front of the camera.

Newborn photos: Lillian

After I get to do a maternity shoot with a family, I always start getting excited to meet their little one for newborn photos. It’s so cool to capture both sides of such a big life event. This little lady was so sweet and was more than happy to cuddle up for some photos with mom, dad and big brother.

Family Photos: the Mullens (Dublin, California)

Take one silly girl and two fun parents and you get a great set of photos! I was happy to meet up with this family again and spend a morning taking photos. One of the things I enjoy most about family photo sessions is when personalities shine through and when the relationships between the family members are caught on camera. These photos both of those things!

Family Photos: the Groenenbergs (Berkeley, CA)

These photos make me so happy! Good friends, an outgoing little girl with tons of personality, a great location and beautiful lighting. I can’t ask for a better photo session.

Family Photos: the Burtons (Livermore, CA)

This family has so much fun together and you can tell from their photos! I appreciated that they were willing to get goofy in front of the camera and have a great time. We met up at a spot that I’ve shot at many times, but we were able to roam and find some awesome new nooks and crannies all over.
