Max | 2 Years Old | Foster City Family Photographer

One surprisingly sunny and resfreshingly warm day in May, I met with 2 year old Max and his family for a mini family photo session.

We chose a particularly picturesque location by a water canal in Foster City. Max was thrilled--he wanted to dive right in. :) So we moved away from the water and the boardwalk and took pictures in the surrounding park.

Thumbs up for the parents who came prepared with a gorgeous helium-inflated balloon bouquet. Love it!

Now we've all heard the term "terrible twos". Look at that angelic face! May these photos stand as a reminder not to generalize about age -- children of all ages are wonderful!

Until next time!

Anna | Mini Photo Session Outdoors | Sunnyvale Family Photographer

There is a field, close to my house. And once a year, in the spring, when the flowers are in bloom, for a short few weeks, it is pure joy to look at!

This year I was so excited to be able to do several wonderful family sessions in this gorgeous field, including this one with Anna.

Please enjoy!

Baby Lukas | Colma Infant and Family Photographer

If you remember baby Nathaniel, whose infant photos I took only some 14 months ago, and whose 6-month session was this summer, well, meet his baby brother, Lukas!

And here is Nathaniel with little Lukas. He's such a big guy! I had to keep reminding myself that he too is still a baby! :)

Dominic | 6 Month Session | Sunnyvale Baby & Family Photographer

I had not met Dominic until a week ago, and immediately he won my heart! (And not just because he's the son of my best friend.)

What an adorable, lively, baby, full of smiles, drool, and the sweetest facial expressions! At not quite six months old he was trying to sit.

He was a real trooper as we squeezed him into a treasure chest a few sizes too small for him. And when it was time to nap, he got really animated and showed us his best smiles yet.

Naomi | Stanford University, Palo Alto Family Photography

In what I think is going to be my last Stanford University family session of the year (or not, you never know) it was my pleasure to work with the lovely 1-year old Naomi and her parents. As is generally the case with my 1-year old clients, I chased her around Stanford University to "get the shot" and had a great time doing it!

Naomi had a bit of stranger anxiety, but I think we did just fine nonetheless, and by next year, I am sure we'll be good friends! :)
