Killough Family Shoot on the Farm | Morgan Hill Photography

It's a wonderful feeling to photograph personal friends. I feel blessed that I get to do it often. 

The Killough family are so close as friends we consider them family. 

Little Emma Jane is one of Ava's favorite friends, so we brought Ava along on the shoot to help get some smiles out of Emma (which is no challenge at all) and meet Emma's horsies :)

Beth has two gorgeous horses in the stables here.

It was a blast watching her with them and getting Emma up on one with Beth. 

(Besides the fact that the Barn theme is one of my favorites. So rustic and beautiful.)

Emma will be 2 in December.

Sweet Eva & her family | Los Gatos Family Photography

What a pleasure it was so spend an hour with this sweet girl! 

This is Eva. 

When I asked her mama to tell me a little about her before our shoot she said something along the lines of: well, she doesn't look at the camera and doesn't like having her photo taken. 

So much for that! 

She was a little pro and we had such a great time!

I loved working with her and her mom and dad. 

Great, beautiful family!

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. 

Pepe's Shoot

Meet Pepe.

 This sweet little pooch is getting old and struggling through some health difficulties. I recently had a great shoot with this beautiful family in honor of Yasmine's birthday. Since then, mom realized that they might lose their Pepe soon and have no pictures of the girls with him. Mom and Dad want their girls to remember him if not in their mind's eye, then in a photograph. So, we met up at a local park near their home and Nike (mom) even pulled her oldest out of school. Pepe was shivering and nervous, but warmed up. We got some nice shots to remember him someday. For today he's just getting a lot of love, which is mostly what keeps us all alive anyway.
