Thank you to Chrissy and her beautiful family for allowing me to take their first “official” family photos! I loved meeting their adorable son and lovable dog. I have been a proud dog owner, recently losing our Bear. So it meant a lot to me that Chrissy wanted to include their family pet in their photos. You can’t have too many images of your loved ones…including your pups. I wish I had taken more family photos with Bear over the past few years.

We decided to meet in Folsom at one of my favorite woodsy areas. It is hard to find these pretty pockets of green in Northern California in the fall, but we managed to find the perfect place for their session! Folsom is gorgeously perfect for family shoots 🙂

This family is really fun. Like really fun. They laughed at all my corny jokes and had a genuinely fabulous time together. It is not a surprise their little boy, S, was smiley, curious, and a complete joy. He is the apple in their eyes 🙂

This is really a beautiful family 🙂 I feel so lucky that their move to Folsom led them to me…I had the BEST time chasing after little S. He was lovely.Snuggle bug. I love his little face here.This is what most of the session looked like. When I wasn’t chasing this sweet boy around he was making eyes at my camera. He loved it!This mama loved her boy. That smile was glowing any time she looked over at her sweet son. Tiny toddler hands.The dirt was so exciting. Once he found out that he was allowed to

Thanks again to Chrissy, for meeting me in beautiful Folsom for your family session! I hope to see you all again soon. Your family is really awesome and I had a great time meeting you all!
