Charlotte turns 2! | Bay Area Children's Photography

What a treat is was to spend a hour with this little love, Charlotte.

She's 2!

So, we documented her 2 year old preciousness today. 

She's an explorer, so curious, and full of fun and wonder.

I was so glad to get to know her and her mom and dad a little better. 

Such great people with great news....!

Charlotte's going to be a big sister in June! :)

Parker | 1 year. | Bay Area Children's Photography

Check out Parker!! 

He is such a cutie with that blond hair and blue eyes. 

It made my day to see him and how big he is now! I hadn't seen him since he was a newborn! 

My, how he's changed! :)

It touched my heart to see the love that has grown in his mom & dad. 

It's just all over their expressions when they're holding him.

Summer is so pretty. I loved watching her with Parker. 

There is something so beautiful in the look a mom gives her baby. 

There's nothing like it. 
Completely genuine.

Happy 1st Birthday, Parker! 

Personal post | A trip to the Farm | Bay Area Family Photography

A warm, sunny afternoon for just me and Ava. 

I took her to Hidden Villa Farm to see the spring animals and soak in the warmth of the sun. 

I love my little feeler, my little thinker.

I love her hair gently blowing in the breeze.

I love that she found a spot in the grass and sat there for 20 minutes talking to herself, feeling the grass, and picking poppy's (I had no idea that is illegal. oops! It'll never happen again. promise.)

And I love her pink "farkly clothes" (sparkly) and that she cries when they aren't clean. 

We have Nana to thank for that :)

And lastly, I love who we ran into as we stood talking to the sheep. Baby Anna, Clare, and their Mom, my friend, Susan, plus Hannah and Emma. It was a nice surprise. 

So glad to spend the day at the farm. 

It was just the way it was meant to be.

Edwards Easter Shoot | Los Gatos Family Photography

This is the beautiful Edwards family. 

Four months ago they welcomed Austin into their family and they've recently adopted Lola, their beautiful dog. 

So, time to capture their changing, growing family again, and what a perfect time of year. There are wildflowers everywhere and green is bursting out of the tree branches! It's beautiful.

...and they looked so sweet in pastels.
