Bay Area Family Portraits

What a cutie!!  I got a serious workout during this portrait session at my favorite outdoor photography playground, Mills College.  This charming girl explored everything at a very fast pace.  I chased her all over the grounds…up and down the lawn, through the bushes, and around the buildings.   Of course, I’m used to this, but her Mother was starting to feel like we couldn’t possibly be getting any good images.  I reassured her that this is totally normal.  We all know you can’t tell a three year old to sit still!

To me photographing children means catching real moments as they play, expressing their natural sense of wonder and adventure.  It’s not about forcing them to sit still and say “cheese.”  It’s so much fun to watch parents react with surprise when they see the beautiful images that celebrate their child’s authentic personality.

San Francisco Bay Area Studio Family Portraits

I love the way these images capture the authentic personalities of this charming family.  We had a great time during our studio portrait session, which actually seemed more like a play date.  It’s important to me that your kids are truly having fun at their session, because when that happens, smiling for the camera is a natural occurrence, not a forced torture!  No saying “cheese” in my studio!

Cute in Pink: Studio Portrait Session

I confess…. I never had an outfit like this as a child.  I lived on a farm and played with sheep when I was this age.  But these two rocked the pink ruffles like no one else could.  All I wanna know is, where do you get an outfit like that?
