What family client (or photographer, for that matter) wouldn’t love a location with a magical pond and weeping willows?! This is one of my favorite spots and just perfect for a spring, summer or fall session for families or graduating seniors!

This family has been coming back for years. I truly love watching kids grow up right in front of my lens!

Casual photography is my preferred style and this family of four does it right for their professional family photo shoot in El Dorado Hills.

Purples, pinks and blues are some of the best colors to wear for a warm-weather family photography session. This location, with its water feature and beautiful green trees, makes it an ideal background for this family in their flattering wardrobe.

Sister’s easy smile and brother’s little shy expressions perfectly sum up this time in their lives — so much personality!

We can’t leave out a sibling hugging picture! These are the best and parents are always happy when we can capture the love and affection between their kiddos.

I love a good father-son moment! Toddlers often like to wriggle free, but we can play games and make it fun for energetic little ones.

Can’t forget Mama! I will happily create lots of mom-and-kids snuggle pictures! I’m no stranger to making the most of your kids being on their best behavior. Get lots of hugs out of it! Lol

Sometimes, the shoot is over and the children are just exploring, knowing the pressure is off. That can make for some beautiful images and here’s a great example. I just adore her genuine smile!
