In between all our late-summer weddings and surprise proposals, we had the pleasure of hanging out with Renate and Keith’s family at the beautiful Montara State Beach. Back in the spring, we had donated a family photo session to the Ocean Shore School here in Pacifica for their fundraising auction, and this sweet family won our photo session. We’re still pretty new residents of the area, but are really excited to be giving back in whatever little ways we can. [ read more … ]

In between all the weddings and proposals during this busy summer, it’s nice to have a change of pace shooting fun photos with an adorable baby! For baby Aasmi’s first birthday, her parents set up a picnic complete with cute pastel-colored props and a beautiful cake for her to dig into, and she had lots of fun with it 🙂 Happy birthday Aasmi!

Julie and Quin are expecting their twins soon — a boy and a girl!! Does it get any better than that? I wish I were so blessed 😀 We strolled along the Linda Mar Beach trail right next to their home in our lovely city of Pacifica and spent the evening golden hour under pouring sunshine. It was an amazing afternoon and I love how these photos turned out! [ read more … ]

Meet four-day-old Maximus — Xavier’s new little brother! It’s been a pleasure documenting Ruth’s family every few months for the past two years. I was so happy to meet this little guy and as you can see, so was his big brother!!

Lots of kisses and snuggles and TONS of love 🙂

Eric’s mother was in town, so the family and I met up again in San Jose and had a family shoot at Doerr Park. Lillian is now 20 months old! She’s grown up so much since I last met her for her cake smash photo shoot! She’s such an adorable independent little lady – loves to run around, especially away from us, making that cute “come catch me!” face. Can’t wait to see you guys next year 😀
