Has a year gone by that fast?! This was our Ellie bear not so long ago. I still can't stop chuckling when I look at her baby photos because she looks so much like her Dad, trapped in a miniature body, and wrapped in a blanket. It's both adorable and startling at the same time, haha.
If at first you fail, try again. Yes, that was the theme of this session. Mom specifically wanted to have the Golden Gate Bridge as the backdrop so we agreed to meet on a summer day in SF. The only thing is summer days in SF can be sunny, windy, cold, foggy, and cloudy - all in one day.
Seven macaroons for seven years of marital bliss. Judy and Tim had me as soon as they mentioned wanting to bring their dogs, Waffle and Poppy, along for the session. These two are clearly more in love than ever and their little family is absolutely adorable. Hoping to see them again for their next anniversary!
This was my second invitation back to photograph this beautiful family. We first met in December of 2014 for Sage's first photo session. We met again last year for Sage's first birthday party. This year is an exciting one - ready or not, Sage, you're getting a sibling! I feel so privilege for the honor of documenting such happy moments in their lives. I cannot wait to meet their new addition!
When I first picked up photography, I secretly hoped that one day I'd be good enough to be hired for a job. It's not because I needed another job but it would mean that my work has a value to others. So it was incredibly sweet and reaffirming when this mom-to-be told me that she cried tears of joy after viewing photos from her maternity session. I know it was a particularly trying time for these parents-to-be because celebrating the arrival of their son would remind them about the loss of his twin brother. Knowing that my photos have touched them is rewarding beyond words.
