Fun Family Session! Walnut Creek Children and Family Photographer

What a beautiful family!  I photograph their daughter and mom a few years ago at Mother's Day event at Bloom Retreat in Walnut Creek. She was a baby that time and now she is a big sister!    Her baby brother, L is just adorable!  He is turing 1 in September. Happy 1st Birthday, L!  We had lots of fun playing and exploring the park. I LOVE family session !  I especially LOVE capturing the sweet moments between mom and kids ;-) Because we are usually the one behind the camera/I phone, we have SO MANY pictures of kids but not many of us in it.    Enjoy the picture, C family!

I usually suggest my clients to do newborn photos when baby is 5-10 days old but I wasn't physically ready at all ;-(  I finally picked up my camera when Erika was 15days old!  She passed the sleepy stage and was more alert. I started the portraits with her big brother, Leo which I LOVED photographing them together!   then with her daddy, finally some with me ( yes, my husband took some pictures for me! )   This newborn stage is so special and passes by so quickly, these tiny feet, hands, big yawn, you want to remember all these precious…
