Congratulations, Cora & Asa on your bundle of joy. I can't wait to meet your little one during the holidays! Check out some of my favorite photos from our session in the Presidio at Andy Goldsworthy's Spire, plus a quick spin to the Marina. The sun came out to play, and the results are gorgeous. xo
I had the great pleasure of taking a peek into the Lim family's Concord home, where they've made so many memories together -- especially those that include their daughter, Naima. We did a quick lifestyle session to capture their life & love. Here are a few of my favorites...
We made sure to capture all the small details of this home's personality... these two have an impeccable eye for design.
Thank you for inviting me into your beautiful home, Paula and Bing! xoxo
I first met the Fonseca family for baby Elias's 1st birthday portraits, where he dressed up as Max from Where the Wild Things Are. I was so happy to see the family all together for a quick mini session at Lafayette Park in San Francisco with lots of silly faces! As a bonus, we also took a few baby announcement photos featuring Thing 1, Thing 2, and Thing 3 (coming soon!). Congratulations, Cristie & Nick on your beautiful, growing family! xo
The anticipation of Bradley's arrival was strong. Grace Ann, Brad and their extended family waited patiently for this beautiful first-born baby boy, and I was so honored to spend a few hours at their home in San Francisco capturing some lifestyle newborn portraits. Baby Bradley is in very capable hands with these parents who functioned like pros after only six days together, and having Grace Ann's mom to lend her hands (and love) was extra sweet. I can't wait to see this little boy grow! Congratulations!
You may have seen Jen's solo maternity portraits earlier, but this time we were able to include the whole family now that her hubby, Josh is home from his work travels until baby girl arrives in October. I visited the Rubins in sunny Dublin, California and we took a short walk around their adorable neighborhood for some family maternity photos.
A quick note about maternity -- mamas-to-be in their late 3rd trimester should plan on only about a 45 minute to 1 hour max session with easy walking. It becomes increasingly more challenging for mamas to get around this late in pregnancy so I will choose locations that are close to the comfort of home and easy to maneuver. If you'd like to have a set of memories like this, book me and we'll work out the details!
Lewis is always a joy to have in front of my camera because he gives me GOLDEN outtakes like this. :)
