Family Session | Mountain View, CA

So, it had been two years since I had the pleasure of photographing this family but when we met up at Shoreline Park a few weeks ago it was as though we hadn't missed a beat!

The session started with a rousing game of hide & seek between the kids and Dad...

She was our seeker


Mom and Dad finally got a shot of just the two of them, which hasn't happened since their wedding! *gasp*


My aim is to always make everyone feel at ease in front of the camera.  This little guy who is normally very camera shy and always puts on the 'cheese' smile is the perfect example of what a difference feeling comfortable can make.  There's no 'cheese' here!



This session was a gift for Mom and the thing she wanted most was to replace a similar shot we did at our last session two years ago of her and the kids - see below.




Time for pizza! yay!!

Newborn Session | Washington, DC

I was fortunate enough to travel to our nation's Capital last week to both meet and capture my newest niece!  She is the epitome of perfection...if I do say so myself ;)  This was my sister's first baby and so we were all very excited and waiting with baited breath for her arrival; which came just on time as anyone who knows my sister and her husband could've guessed!

I am thrilled to introduce to you my newest niece, the very sweet Ingrid!






Thanks to #loveprops for the addition of the adorable headbands that only added to Ingrid's already beautiful self!







I am missing her sweet face already and can't wait until I get to see her again this Summer!






One happy family :)
