Such a fantastic morning as I was lucky enough to hide and be a “spy” my other secret favorite profession. Matthew called to say he was going to propose to his longterm (that’s 9 years) , Jackie, at Gravity Hill above Petaluma in Penngrove. So he sent me a pin and I met him on the top of the hill and there is literally nowhere to hide. So I get out of the car which my camera and my huge 200 mm lens and ask, “Do you know what valley that is? I was hired by a real estate company to take a photo of a certain valley.” Then, I introduced myself to make sure indeed, This was Matthew and Jackie. It most certainly was. So….I sauntered up the hill and pretended to take photos of the landscapes when Matthew bent down on one knee and popped the question. Of course she said yes….Look at those in love, happy faces. Congratulations Matthew and Jackie!

The Covers family portraits were shot in the mustard fields of Petaluma in Sonoma County. I photographed them in an artistic style for a photo session in a local magazine called Historic Life of Petaluma. These photographs were shot photo journalistically and laid out in an editorial style with a write up of this beautiful family and the Foundry Wharf which is a warehouse district the Cover family owns down by the Petaluma River. The Foundry Wharf houses Aqus Cafe and many other business and boutique shops. Photographing the children was a delight as I let them run around their parents properties and shoot them in true photo journalism style which is how I think kids convey their true selves.

A family portrait shoot in Petaluma in Sonoma County. Love taking family and children’s portraits under the live oak trees of Petaluma. Being a family and children’s portrait photogapher I get to scout out the most obscure locations for their backdrops of their family portraits. I love the natural light cascading in throught the leaves to highlight them. Just look at these stunning faces…

The Ferrettis family portraits were shot at Howarth Park in Santa Rosa, CA. I loved the beautiful moss growing everywhere from all the rain so I photographed the childrens portraits while they were playing in a documenty style. The colors were highly saturated and their images are full of vitality and love. What a fun shoot to be a family photographer on as I adore this cute family!

I was so excited to shoot The Smiths’s family portraits and in their grandparents gorgeous gardens. The photos look so clean and crisp with a touch of Monet. Perfect for Springtime. I love the kids portraits here as they are so sweet with their siblings and mothers. And why not throw your family dog into the photo shoot as well? In this photo shoot, we decided to keep it in Petaluma as that is where all the families are based. Such a happy and adorable family to photograph for spring portraits

The Zambrano Family Portraits were shot at Jack London State Park in Glen Ellen, Sonoma County with the most vibrant colors in the vineyards. Their boy was having so much running around while I did childrens portraiture. It was such a beautiful day and I highly recommend booking a family portrait session at Jack London State Park in Sonoma County.
