I think it goes without saying that I love family portraits. I think it is so important to spend a few minutes each year documenting your family as it grows and changes. This family just welcomed baby boy #3 – what better reason to capture and preserve these moments as a family.

Their middle son wasn’t very happy to be taking pictures, but after a few minutes he warmed up and even gave me some smiles (I’m never more cool than when I am quacking & mooing to get a 2-year-old’s attention!).

And here’s one of my favorites of the oldest son.

The proud parents, taking a few minutes for themselves.

And mom and her three sons.

Smoooooch!

More photos coming soon – we  did a separate newborn session for the little guy!

I met up with this family on a Spring morning in the Wine Country. We snuck in a photo session before the rain hit later than afternoon. Is it just me, or does it seem like it rains every time I come to town?!

We’ve known Jerry & Kandi for many years now and it’s always so fun to see them and get to know Aiden a little better.And I always always always leave with major eyelash envy. This child has caterpillar lashes! 

Aiden started getting a little serious during our session. This is what happened when his mom and I asked him for a “big, crazy smile.” This makes me laugh so hard and reminds me why I love photographing small children and why I really love including some of the “outtakes” from our day.

I love this one out in a field.

We also took some photos of Kandi’s brother and nephew.

I’m thinking handsome kids run in the family?

I love this one of the cousins.

And one last picture of the whole family!

When L & E’s mom and I were discussing possible locations, I was thrilled when she agreed to a new-to-me location. What’s more fun that two cute kids and a new location to spark my creativity? And they don’t come much cuter than these two…

And a few shots with mommy, too. I love that! As a mom, I know how rarely we actually get to be in the photos and how much we love the photos once we have them.

It was fun to take photos on the railroad tracks. Where I live, I would *never* attempt these kinds of photos (I think we get something like 40 trains a day here!). But Santa Rosa hasn’t seen a train in many years, which means railroad tracks become a fun “prop.”

This girl has some great smiles. And she has some really great pouts, too.

Kisses!

Thanks Kelly for asking me to photograph your babies!
