Davis Family Photography | Julienne + Family at Sunset

Julienne is a very sweet, talented photographer. I first met her in 2017. Her family is amazing and I love photographing these kids. They have so much spirit and personality. They are also incredibly kind. Their oldest daughter is a wonderful singer. Their son is smart as a whip and loves video games. The littlest is the family princess. She is loved fiercely and fiercely loves.

Seeing families again and again is a treasure. I never take it for granted. The comfort of wandering, talking, and photographing a familiar face is lovely. When I get to know a family I feel connected to them forever. Chatting about our kids, school, vacations, and family life is precious. I cannot thank Julienne and her family for trusting me to photograph them over and over. The easy way this family gets along makes my job incredibly easy. They laugh and play and are so happy together. It makes me want to barrel in the middle for a big group hug.

why davis family photography

We chose this location in Davis for the scenery and because Julienne frequents here. She feels connected to this place and hopefully more connected to her final images. This level of personal connection is not to be discounted. I often photograph families in pretty fields and beautiful spots with views, but nothing compares to a pretty spot with some history. We can have the best of both worlds in family photography. Keeping focus on personalizing a session as much as possible means the gallery is meaningful. Meaning is everything. At the end of the day the memories and the people are all that matter. If I can play a very small part in aligning the memories and the people in some beautiful sun-filled images, then I consider that a huge win.

This family is the best! I have photographed Andrea and Jason’s engagement, wedding, maternity, and newborn and had the extreme pleasure of photographing their gorgeous baby’s first birthday session! Love cannot describe how I feel about them. They are fun, spirited, sweet, kind, and above all, they have such a loving family connection. Thanks for letting me into your lives once again!!

Folsom Family Photographer | Springtime

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!
