Outdoor Family Portraits in Oakland

Posted on by

My favorite thing about photographing kids is getting in touch with that state of childlike wonder that we so often forget.  Imagine if we looked up at every airplane in awe, or found every little pond perfectly entertaining.  These two brothers are a charming pair, and I’ve had the privilege of documenting their growth.  This last session was an amazing milestone, as they are both on the move and really able to engage with their environment.  For the photographer, that means a lot of running around, and I’m happy to do it.

Mother-Daughter Portraits

Posted on by

I first met Kerry when I created her professional head shots.  We had a great session and I thoroughly enjoyed meeting her.  As an aside, she has an amazing eye for design.  We were working in her home and I think I complimented her on every piece of furniture and artwork in the place!
So, needless to say, I was honored and excited when Kerry called to schedule a portrait session with her Mother.  The two of them are so elegant, I just had to share some of the images from our session.
Two beauties; like mother, like daughter!

Bay Area Family Portraits

Posted on by

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.
