Megan & David have been married for two years and have been in the Bay Area for a year, so this was a good time to get some great couple photos. We went out for a portrait session at the Elizabeth F. Gamble Garden in Palo Alto during the beautiful fall season. They brought their adorable and very well-behaved dog along which was a lot of fun, and even bought him a cute hoodie with ear flaps for this shoot! It was well worth the investment as we got a lot of great shots. See their photos below:

Mabel first contacted us 6 months ago, and we scheduled a family session later in the year because Ethan was only 9 month old back then. Now little Ethan is (a little bit) grown up and can walk on his own. Kaitlyn is a really caring big sister! She is sweet and happy and loves giving her family hugs and kisses. Mabel and Andy also brought along their 7 year old Husky, Mac, who loooooves his treats.

2 adults + 2 kids + 1 dog = a perfect family!

Anicea and Harold took their twin babies Yann and Yanis to Cuesta Park to celebrate their two year anniversary and their babies’ second birthday!! Anicea spent time with me to discuss her preferences ahead of the photo shoot and I’m really glad that they brought some colorful props! Yann & Yanis are two energetic and adorable kids — they LOVE running around and laughing, and they love dancing and marching 🙂 [ read more … ]

Our friend Perry moved to the Bay Area from Seattle three months ago, and this was our first time meeting Silver the husky! We’ve seen so many adorable photos of her on Perry’s Facebook page so when Perry told us he wanted a photo session for Silver, David and I were thrilled!

We spent an hour at the Stanford Oval, and despite the many distractions from people throwing frisbees and kicking soccer balls, we managed to get many cute and silly shots of Silver.

Silver is a big cuddler and she gave me lots of kisses!! I’ve included a photo of me and her at the end. These are some of our favs, please enjoy!

I photographed Ruth’s maternity session back in late July. About a month later little Xavier came to this world a little earlier than planned. So when Ruth contacted me, I was super excited to meet him!

He is so tiny that you just can’t help to love and protect him. Life is really precious and wonderful!

Meet Xavier… Ta-dah!
