San Francisco Bay Area Family Photographer | The Harrisons

You might recognize these faces :) Last year I had the opportunity to photograph their family session in Los Altos in celebration of two lost front teeth and this time it was to celebrate their amazing au pair who was leaving them after 2 years to move back to Germany. I loved seeing her relationship with the two boys. She was like a wonderful big sister to them and I know she will be greatly missed.

We decided to try Sutro Baths and as always with Sutro Baths, I'm glad we did. I can't even tell you how much I love this place and it's surprising how many San Francisco locals have no idea it exists!

Thanks again Harrison family, and I hope to see you again for another session soon!

San Francisco Bay Area Family Photographer | The Reisters

Whitney and Jeremy have been together since high school - he was the quarterback and she was the cheerleader. How do I know this? I was there too, just a couple of years older ;) I remember them both as 16 year olds and when we met again in person for their session it was like nothing had changed, but also so, so much. They are now married and the parents of a beautiful little girl. Of course I'm also married to my high school sweetheart and we have a family of our own.

We all grew up in Sacramento, a place I visit often from the Bay Area since my mom and many friends still live there. Being so close to Sacramento is one of the reasons we moved back to the San Francisco Bay Area, so that we could see everyone more often.

It was a warm spring evening when I photographed Whitney and Jeremy with their little girl. I love spring sessions because it's the only time in Northern California when the grass is green and soft! Their little one year old girl was a total doll and smiled nearly the whole time which is unheard of for that age! She was so happy to be outside running around (that's what you get when you walk at 9 months like she did!)

One of the really cool things about being a family and wedding photographer is that you get to reconnect with so many people that you might have not otherwise seen again.

I had such a wonderful time photographing the Higa family in San Francisco on a windy but beautiful evening!
