Family Session in Palo Alto

Family

Last Monday I photographed this beautiful family at their home in Palo Alto. Keith and Mariela are the proud parents of adorable Ethan and Hailey.

I got there a little early and was able to grab some pictures of Keith and Mariela alone while Hailey was still asleep. Not a surprise, but they haven’t had too many pictures of the two of them for about two years now.


We got the whole family outside on this perfect day.


Hailey is a fabulous big sister to little Ethan.


I just love these collections below. Mariela tickling Hailey was just so cute. Those are the most genuine smiles and giggles you will ever see.


And Keith tossing up Ethan was priceless. Total baby bliss.


Ethan and Hailey are just so cute and check out the eyelashes on Ethan. To. Die. For.



And there’s not much cuter than hands and feet. Check out all those fingers!



I think everyone was pooped by the end of the shoot but we had a great time.



Thanks so so much. You guys were awesome!

The happiest moments of my life have been the few which I have passed at home in the bosom of my family. ~Thomas Jefferson

I am pleased to introduce you to Mr. William Ryan.  He is an adorably round little man who digs strangers and is 100% likely to steal your heart.

He’s much like his dad, Chris.  The two have a close bond and Kelly says that he lights up for him in a way he doesn’t for anyone else.  They both savor their own quiet time and William will pensively relax at a window or in his crib for a while without any qualms. William was about 3 ...

In my life before portrait and wedding photography, I was in graduate school for sociology.In undergrad, I didn't know what opportunities there were for sociology majors. I just loved the subject matter and had some incredible professors that I never put much thought into what would happen after graduation. I learned that the main route for sociology majors who are really into sociology is graduate school so you can make more sociologists. This was prefect as I loved being in the classroom and I was pretty good at being a student (graduated magna cum laude and a member of Phi Beta Kappa).My shtick was family and gender roles and social psy ...
