Valentine’s Mini Sessions for the Grandparents | Pleasanton & Livermore

Valentine’s Day Mini Sessions……with a twist! When we think about booking a photo session, we usually think of our immediate growing family but what we don’t always think of is how important it is to have portraits of the people who raised us and the people who raised them; our parents and our grandparents….even our great-grandparents! This month I want to take a moment to celebrate and capture them and their love.

If you’ve ever thought, “We really need to get photos of Mom and Dad, or “I wish I had nicer pictures of Grandma and Grandpa”, or even if your kids are grown and want to treat yourself to professional portraits of you and your love, this is your sign! Not later. Not someday. Now. Because one day, you’ll be incredibly grateful you did.

The Details: These sessions will be quicker than my normal family mini sessions, around 15 minutes. You will receive all the edited images in an online gallery. The location will be in Pleasanton or Livermore. I will hold them throughout the month of February based on your availability but as usual they will be around sunset.

Send me an email today if you’d like to book or if you have any questions!

Lime Ridge Fall Mini Session in Walnut Creek

Fall at Lime Ridge is one of my favorite times of the year to photograph families in the East Bay. The trails soften, the colors stay neutral warm, and the landscape gives that effortless, natural backdrop that lets families be the focus. This fall mini session in Walnut Creek was the perfect example of why I love this location so much. Open space, gentle hills, and that earthy feel that photographs beautifully. And of course that beautiful golden California light we are so lucky to have.

This gorgeous family brought such a calm, easy energy to their session. From the soft tones in their outfits to the way they naturally interacted, everything felt cohesive and timeless, exactly what I’m always looking to achieve with my clients. Their pup was no exception, calm and completely content, he fit right in to the rhythm of the session and added such a sweet layer to the story we were telling. I mean just look at how handsome and perfectly poised he is!

Although mini sessions are short and sweet, they are designed to capture what matters most: connection, closeness, and the season of life you’re in right now. My goal is always to create images that feel honest, relaxed and full of love.
