V family session, Pleasant Hill, California outdoor family portrait photographer

This session was given by mom's sister as a surprise gift to this family!  What a thoughtful gift!   Their little one was turning one this Summer and sister told me that they didn't have any family portraits as family of 5, yet and she thought it would be a nice gift ;-)  And I made sure I got lots of pictures of the youngest one!  Mom requested " Summer" look so I chose this one of my favorite location in San Ramon to do their family portraits.  Kids LOVED exploring in nature and I LOVED chasing after them, too.  what a fun time we had together!  Lots of smile, bubble, splashing, exploring ;-)  I can't wait to see these images displayed in their house!  It's going to look so beautiful with metal print collage!   Enjoy the pictures, V family!! One of my favorite! Mom and Dad got married in 2002 ~ See little one jumping?  So cute! Exploring the park How sweet ♥
