Paul & Mariana have been living in the Bay Area for a few months for work. Their family is heading back to Canada in the spring so they wanted a family session in front of the iconic Golden Gate Bridge. Such a beautiful family, and don’t you just love their outfits?! The funny thing is that the kids’ outfits stayed clean for only one photo, then they rushed to the water and started to have fun — kids will be kids!! I loved their energy and the bond between the kids and their parents, and I sure enjoyed capturing their memories here in California!

Baby Xavier is 3 months old!! I can’t believe how time flies when looking back at Xavier’s newborn photos. Just look at his smile — what a happy baby Xavier is!

Julie’s sister and nephew were in town for the new year! So I did another family session for this beautiful family for their precious gathering – lots of jumping, climbing and laughing!

Check out their previous family session I did for Christmas here.

Mengxi surprised Shi by booking a portrait photo session as a birthday gift — what a sweet boyfriend! We walked around the park and took advantage of the great South Bay winter lighting to snap some beautiful photos. Take a look below!

I had a fun session with Julie and Eric’s beautiful family! With Christmas just around the corner, Julie’s parents were visiting them in town, and the rain stopped just in time for their photo shoot. Little Lillian is soooo cute! She is a very happy baby and didn’t mind laughing in front of my cameras. Her tiny, adorable red polka dot dress made her pop in all the photos and was very Christmas-y!

Happy holidays everyone!  🙂  🙂  🙂
