D Family ! Alamo, California Family photo session at home

I visited D family's beautiful house in Alamo, California for family photo session.   I have photographed their older daughter at Alamo Elementary School's gala fundraising event earlier this year!  I was excited to see her again and photograph her family.   They have a beautiful backyard and mom wanted family portraits there.   Mom came to my studio a week after photo session to view photos and she purchased four gorgeous 20 x 20 framed photos to display at their home.  I hope those pictures will give everyone a smile when they look at them  and that is my goal of my business!  Thank you, D family for a fun session!
