Contest Winner Photo Shoot

Here are some of the images from the photo shoot for our contest winner. We had lots of fun playing at the park in the process. I love how they turned out! Gorgeous Day + Gorgeous Little Girl = Gorgeous Pictures! Thanks again to everyone who participated in the contest.

 

The Many Faces of Miss C

We had so much fun on this shoot! Talk about personality! It's hard to believe these are all images of the same girl. She was such a pleasure to work with.

R Family

I had the pleasure of taking pictures for these dear friends when their daughter was born. The kids have grown a lot and they decide it was time to update their pictures. We had originally planned to do the shoot at a local park and then decided last-minute to use their yard. It worked perfectly and mom and dad didn't have to load and unload kids in the car. Brilliant!
 

K Family

I've been so fortunate to take pictures at birthday parties for this family but this was our first portrait shoot together. This was another time when it worked best for the family to do the shoot at their home. The front yard and living room were beautiful backdrops. They're an adorable family.

Newborn Shoot

Ahhhh...there's not much in this world that's sweeter than a new baby. I was able to go over to the family's home and capture some pictures of this special and fleeting time. I love the face on the top right! Thanks to the G family for letting me share some of this precious time.

 

Birth Announcements

I'm pleased to announce that I am now adding birth announcements to my product offerings.  They are designed by yours truly and professionally press-printed on high quality card stock. Here are a few samples...

Another variation on the theme...

5 x 7 folded card (blank inside)...great for thank you notes, etc.

Sugar and Spice

That's what girls are made of... I've known this family long before they had two girls and it's been great getting to see their family grow up. Aren't they gorgeous?
 

Thin Wrapped Canvas

I've been wanting to order one of these for a long time and finally had just the picture to do so. It really exceeds my expectations! The picture is put on canvas and then wrapped around a thin base. There's a little block behind it so when you hang it on the wall, it stands out just a little bit. I love that you can hang it on the wall or put it on an easel or even rest it against something. No need to figure out how to frame and matte it. What could be easier. A very elegant, beautiful and simple presentation for your images.  This is an 8x10, but it's available in just about any size you would want or need.

Photo Collage

I recently ordered this 20"x20" photo collage for this family's son's first year.  Isn't he adorable?  I love how it turned out!  It comes mounted on solid 2mm styrene.  It can then be framed or displayed on its own.

Bui Brothers Lighting Workshop

I had the best time on Monday at an all-day lighting workshop with the Bui brothers and the SF East Bay Photography Meetup Group. It was a great group of people and the brothers didn't hold back on the information and tips. They were awesome and fun to be around. Here are just a few of the pictures I took at our afternoon shoot with our gorgeous models.  Check out the Bui Brothers blog for more photos and info about the day.  Thanks Bui brothers!

Senior Shoot

These seniors wanted to have some individual pictures and some shots together.  They were both so adorable and really fun to work with.
