The Norwood family recently moved to California from Texas, and I’m thrilled to shoot their yearly family photos for 2014! Peter and Jeannette are a sweet couple and Aaron was full of energy and climbed on everything he could in that park 🙂 And I have to say, Aaron was quite the model — I didn’t have to pose him or anything, my camera just loved him!

Peter, Jeannette and Aaron, welcome to the Bay Area!

We spent a lovely evening with Ruth, the mother-to-be. Ruth wanted us to capture some yoga poses that connect her with the baby. With some help from the gorgeous lighting that day, we got some stunning shots at the park! Did I mention that Ruth is also a fellow Canadian? Best of luck with your growing family, and we can’t wait to see the baby!

Journey was turning two years old! We followed him around Alamo Square in his cute “2” outfit and Pharrell’s happy hat and got some cute pics of him playing and dancing. Happy second birthday, Journey!

“Aww” is the only word in my mind as I’m writing this… We had a super fun session with the beautiful Klein family! Katerina and Rob have the CUTEST baby Maya who smiles non-stop and the CUTEST puppy Coco who begs for attention all the time 🙂 We can’t wait to share their photos with you!

Nuha and Ziyad’s Wild West theme birthday party took place in the lovely clubhouse in their Fremont neighborhood. The kids sure knew how to use the photobooth props for great photos! The beautiful cake and ALL the great decorations made this birthday party a memorable one. Happy birthday Nuha & Ziyad!
