family session

Family Photography | The Galbally Family | Avalon 2017

in ,

A glimpse into a weekend spent with family.  These kids love hard.  And I got to sit back and watch.

p.s.  If you would like to hire me to capture posed images, with everyone looking + smiling, I am not the photographer for you.  To be honest, I suck at that (as you can tell from this shoot).  But if you like blue tongues, sticky fingers, sand in your hair, tears, grass stains, mohawks, and lots of messy love...I am happy to help you document it.  If you would like the aforementioned, I do have some amazing referrals in my back pocket just for you and I am happy to share their wonderful talents. 

Bernard | Henry and Vera's New Baby Brother | 2017

in ,

I know many of you have heard me say this before, but there is something so sweet about capturing a baby in its infancy as they begin to fill out...the rolls and dimples that appear as quick as they disappear with age.  Such a sweet spot.  Details that I never want to forget.  Bernard was the perfect age and is adored by his siblings, Henry and Vera.  Just a reminder, don't forget the details when capturing your family...they might not seem important, but trust me, they will be distant memories until you look back on an image.

The Douglas Family | 2016

in

A family session from last summer.  Just before a deployment.  A reminder that there is always a backstory.  A backstory of a family who shares knowing glances, sandcastles at sunsets, hand holding and heartbeats...all before paying much mind to the future before them.  Most of all, they share an unselfish sacrifice for our backstories too; our freedom.  Thank you for your service.

A Family Session | Overcast, Rain + Lots of Love | August 2016

in

The summer came and went and I was fortunate enough to end it with a lifestyle family session with the Dickstein family.  I knew the minute I walked into their beautiful home I was going to love work that day!  Their laid back approach made for thoughtful children who I wanted to spend the entire day with.  The overcast clouds hurried us to the beach with rain looming and we received the most beautiful light from above and made it back before the skies opened up.  A good movie and comfy clothes and maybe some sheltered screened porch watercolor painting were planned for the rest of the rainy day and I wish I could have stayed.  Thank you Dicksteins for allowing me this small glimpse into your beautiful life. xo
