Reynolds Family Sneak Peek - One Year

Another year has flown by, I swear that's what happens once children enter your life. Try as you might to slow down time, it just seems to keep speeding up. We took maternity photos and the sweet newborn photos, but now Miss. Ruth is almost one year old. We headed over to Crissy Field to celebrate and capture this milestone.

We even finished the session off with a cute cake her Mama made. Her first cake ever, she certainly didn't waste any time and seemed to know exactly what to do with it. What a trooper, she deserved it. Happy Birthday sweet Ruth!

This family holds a special place in my heart. This is our pastor who has the ability to make everyone feel loved and special and taken care of! When I moved to America, their oldest son Jared was away at school, whilst Jon and Becky were teenagers in the high school youth group. Now look at them, all grown up.

Jared is now married and living in Utah, Rebecca is a vet in North Carolina and Jon recently also came on as full-time staff at Open Door Church, in San Rafael, here in California. It's not often that they are all around at the same time, so we had to do a few photos just after Christmas.

They have been married for thirty years and still look at each other like this and can just laugh together, love it!

The 'children' all grown up.

This great family contacted me asking for some family photos to use for a ministerial resume. Not quite as formal as regular head shots, but not as informal as one of my normal family sessions. Of course we made sure to get some cute one-on-one shots with the kids and their parents too.

This is one attractive family, with stunning eyes and gorgeous smiles. Enjoy!

I love it when clients' walls are full of prints and this family has a whole wall set up as a gallery. To find people who truly value photography, who feel it is important and not just a nice thing to do, makes me happy. Everybody has different priorities, I totally get that, but in my mind, capturing memories and having something to show the generations that follow is amazing. We document so much of our lives on our phones, which is wonderful and accessible, but it really isn't the same thing as taking the time and making the effort to intentionally capture the beauty of family.

I last did newborn photos for this family, when their littlest boy was just days old (see those here). With baby number three on the way, this lovely couple want to remember not only this beautiful belly but the family of four, that they will be for just a few more weeks. These little boys are suddenly going to seem so much bigger and relationships will inevitably change.

This gorgeous, outnumbered Mama, is about to have a little girl. It's going to be a whole new world of pink for everyone!

 As the sun started to set we headed to the beach for a few more sweet family moments.

Excited to meet and photograph Miss. Lorelai soon. :)
