Family photos don’t have to happen in the fall…sometimes what we all need is a spring or summer session, dancing in Folsom wildflowers with the sunset glowing around us 🙂 I met up with this gorgeous family this spring, on an exceptionally warm evening, with mosquitos buzzing over our heads and happy laughter of these sweet kids in my ears. This family is really something special, we had some awesome conversation, some fun with the kids, and took some photos in one of my favorite Folsom locations. The sun shined through the trees and we wandered the still-green field dotted with purple wildflowers.

I always love when my clients have some adventure brewing below gentle smiles 🙂 And when hair blows…well, you all know I love some good wind and when there isn’t any we make it on our own 🙂

I adore these images, kids laughing, mom smiling, dad proud to call these happy people his own.And best of all dad’s can make their kids fly! Swinging them around, dancing with them, playing and laughing…the best way to get 1000 watt grins that is for sure 🙂

Thank you S Family for coming out to Folsom for your family photos! It is always a pleasure photographing your family 🙂

I love every opportunity I have to photograph families. Family photography means so much to me now that I have children. When parents are able to be IN the images with their kids it warms my heart. Natural interaction, genuine smiles, and positively fun sessions are always my goals during family photo sessions.

I often get asked what to wear to a family session and this family did a great job showing off some comfortable outfits perfect the setting, soft tones in the green field, crisp whites and creams, and most of all coordinating without having to match exactly!
