Hoffman Family Sneak Peek {Marin County, CA Family Beloved Photographer}

I have taken birth photographs and newborn photographs for this family but it was finally time for a family portrait session. I could not be happier with how they turned out. The lighting and location were wonderful and we were able to take the time to truly capture this family and their relationships with each other. It's a long post because it was so hard to narrow down the choices.

I am a firm believer in marriage and the need to keep that relationship strong in the midst of busy lives and children needing attention and care. It is how family starts and it needs to be cherished and nurtured and valued. The love that started it all needs to be remembered, even on the tough days. Whether it's five minutes or twenty, I love to be able to provide a space to capture that love. Thank you John and Alice for not thinking it was weird to play my games and answer my questions to get these genuine emotions. You have something special, don't forget it!

  4. This was such an amazing day. It's funny, I was so stressed leading up to the shoot...making sure everyone was fed, rested, had enough attention, dressed appropriately etc. The actual experience was so very opposite. Juanita had prompting questions she asked for us think about and share with each other so that she could capture our interactions. We spent time focusing on all of the blessings and positives that it make for a lovely, sweet time. I feel like we went out on a special hike together at sunset and an amazing photographer just happened to be there!
    About that photographer, she is an artist. The photos are breathtaking. I know she works hard at what she does and she is worth every penny!! This evening was a special memory and we have beautiful photos to remind us of it.

  5. Thank you everyone. This is one of my favorite sessions to date and the direction I really hope to take my photography. Such a great family, willing to trust me and we got great results. Of course it doesn't hurt that they look good too :)

  6. These would be moving even if they were strangers, but since they aren't I got all misty eyed looking through here. The third is my favorite.
