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.

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.

To say I’m big fans of this family doesn’t quite describe it. They have become like family to us in the time my husband and I have known them. Finding out our due dates for our baby girls were only a few weeks apart brought us even closer. I was so excited to meet their baby when she was born and we did her newborn photos as soon as we could.

This mom and dad are super cool already, so when they had a baby, I knew it would be a good time taking photos with them. I’ve was so excited to hear that they were pregnant and to hear updates from momma throughout the months leading up to Griffin’s birthday. All three of you are the best!

I always enjoy meeting up for a photo session at a location my clients choose because it’s one of their favorite places. When the idea of photos in Joaquin Miller Park came up, I was already looking forward to it. Within the immediate Bay Area, this park and the neighboring parks are one of my favorite spots to take a rest in nature. There were also some spots, like the stone bridge, further inside the park that were great spots to stop for a few pictures. Here are a few of my favorites!
Wedding: Brianna & Arnott (Oakland, CA)

With an engagement shoot being so fun, I was looking forward to Brianna and Arnott’s wedding day. Their special day was full of so many personal touches and sweet surprises that both the bride and the groom planned for one another. It was a real treat to capture this day as it unfolded. Both are very caring towards one another, but also towards every person in their bridal party and their family and guests. Congratulations to you both!
The couple wrote their own vows, with Brianna’s being just a little bit longer than Arnott’s.
The groom’s sister asked the newlyweds to play a little game during her speech, seeing if they answered questions about his/her habits the same way. Needless to say, it inspired a lot of laughter.
Arnott surprised Brianna by learning to play guitar, then playing the song from their first dance. He finished up with a rap he wrote about the two of them and their bridal party.

I got to meet this little lady a few days after she was born and spend time taking photos with her whole family. Capturing a family as they grow is such a cool experience. My favorite part was big brother helping out his sibling and seeing him interact with her with such joy!

I had the pleasure of returning to this beautiful old home in the Oakland, CA hills to do a new set of photos. Since I visited last time, a lot of time and effort has gone into making the rooms and common areas of this bed and breakfast more beautiful and welcoming for guests. The full set of photos extensively covers the rooms, which you can learn more about on their website. I’m choosing to share my favorite photos, that show all the natural light and details that make this 1890s house a lovely space.

When I met in person with Karen, she told me she had waited a long time, but she had found the love of her life. That was the moment I knew I wanted to capture their wedding day for them. Karen is the absolute sweetest person and Willie is such a gentle person, they make a great match. Their wedding day was a great celebration with friends, held at the church they both attend. I wish both of you all the best!
