On what felt like the hottest day of the year, I met the Barker family at their home for some family portraits. Just outside their front door we found shade and the perfect place for a few shots. My favorites from their session are below. Enjoy!
Every couple or family I meet, just makes me realize how blessed I am to be a photographer. I am able to document a part of their life that they will look back on over and over again. When Duncan called, he said he wanted to schedule a maternity session, but not just any maternity session. Duncan and his wife Zoe wanted to document what they were having or also called a gender revealing session.
What is a gender revealing maternity session? Well its when, the parents have no idea what they are having. Duncan and Zoe had the results sealed in an envelope for weeks, but wanted to capture the surprise during their maternity session.
We met at Quicksilver park, and did a few portraits prior to the reveal. I got to know about Duncan, and Zoe both from the UK. You could tell they are super excited to be parents. Duncan and Zoe said from day one they considered their baby to be a “he”. But they had names for both a girl or boy in mind. After some natural portraits we headed to a hill above the park for the reveal. They handed me the envlope and I was to put the corresponding “it’s a girl” or “it’s a boy” balloon in the bag.
I was so excited that I got to know what they were having before they did! This blog post will include all of my favorite images up until the big reveal. They are keeping the gender from family and friends up until the very last moment. So I promised not to spoil it. I can’t wait to meet Duncan and Zoe’s little one. Check back in a few months to find out if they’re having a girl or a boy!
These two were married last week at San Jose city hall,surrounded by family and friends. After the ceremony we snuck away to the Japanese Friendship Gardens in San Jose. It was a beautiful day and I got some beautiful wedding portraits of the two of them. Here are a few of my favorites. Congrats, Mr. & Mrs. McGowan!
I always get the cutest,sweetest kids! This family was no different. We roamed around downtown San Jose and got some amazing shots. Here are a few of my favorites.
We sang and danced to Taylor Swift and talked about our favorite foods and colors. Akemi was pretty cool! Check out a few of my favs from her session!
I’ve had the pleasure of hanging out with the Chetty family for the past two years. This year they are expecting their third addition! I can’t wait to meet her! Here is a sneak peak from their session!
These two are the reason why I love my job so much! Brunda & Seshank are celebrating their second wedding anniversary. I spent the time getting to know them, how they met and how to have a successful marriage. In between the serious talk we laughed and joked and got some great photos, which I think capture their beauty & love. Here are a few of my favorites from their session!
If I am not photographing couples and weddings then I am photographing families with small kids. Its always refreshing when I get a family with older children. So was the case with the Thomas Family. I had tons of fun joking, laughing and getting to know them. We met at the Quicksilver Park for some portraits. Here are some of my favorites!
Hope to see you guys again soon!
