One of my recent favorites from a one year session at the family vineyard in Livermore - tutus and grape vines were a great inspiration to create this vineyard grape fairy shot. Adding a vintage feel in post-processing worked well.
We also hauled a couch out to the vineyard (thanks Jim!) and had some fun family portraits with the couch outdoors as well. Here is one from the front of their holiday card...
The Holidays are Coming Fast!
It is that time of year again - when everything gets a little crazy at the studio with the holiday rush. We are actively shooting holiday family portraits sessions. Our official cut off this year is November 14th for sessions that are intended for holiday cards and holiday gifts - which will give us plenty of time to create our custom design cards and beautiful fine art prints and deliver them to you in time for you to get them out for the holidays. If you have not scheduled your fall family portrait session - we still have some openings, but they are going fast - so call the studio 510-748-8959 to schedule.
More announcements to come for our Annual Toys for Tots Studio Day! Stay Tuned...
Christina and Zach brought Miles in for his newborn photography session when he was about 20 days old. We chose the black background in studio to match some of their favorite maternity portraits that we had done with Christina. Big sister Hannah came to the session too. Here are some fun family pics from the session...
Yes I am a newborn charmer and can capture newborns smiling when the stars are all aligned!
Love these with Miles and Mom!
Some nice individuals of Miles
And we even had some time while Miles was taking a break to do some fun quick shots of Hannah which we turned into this cool little photo panel...

I had a wonderful sibling session with Sandra and her two kids Matteo and Catalina this spring. We did part of the family photography in studio and part outdoors to accommodate the needs of one very busy toddler boy and his infant baby sister who was not yet standing. Sandra and I met at Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco for the first part of the session, and then she brought the kids to the studio for a quick baby session on a different morning. Sandra purchased a collection of prints which she then framed herself and put up on the wall - she sent me a picture of her wall and I think the result looks great!
Here it is...
