Redwood City Family Session

Families November 28, 2018

I got to take pictures of my coworker’s family for their Christmas card!

I brought my 50mm and my full frame. I kind of wish I had brought my Sigma 35, but the 50 just looks so great on a full frame with minimal distortion. Plus for a Christmas card I feel like it’s more important to see the people in the picture rather than the surroundings anyway! So it worked out.

Since we were in one spot it was a lot easier/quicker to edit these since I could be more consistent, but the sun came out a little bit halfway through! So it got a little bit brighter and warmer, which I was happy about. I’m glad we ended up being able to make this time work because it’s supposed to rain the rest of the week.

I really like taking pictures of families and capturing in between moments and the silliness and joy. I’m still learning how to pose (especially details like hands, shoulders, feet, etc) and part of me doesn’t want to get that nitpicky because I want things to be natural and real, but I should also learn to adjust people so that when I take pictures of people who aren’t as comfortable/photogenic, I can make them feel better and confident! (This family was photogenic though so it was less work.)

Vertical photo post featuring the incredibly stunn Vertical photo post featuring the incredibly stunning Lindy and her beautiful venue and florals and the talent of their vendors!!! 

Last year I got to photograph a wedding ceremony by some pretty redwood trees, and this year I traded those for aspens. Clear creek inn and the town of Georgetown are so cute!!

Also, a champagne toast at the end of the ceremony is a great idea 💯

Now I will delete this app again, go into my editing cave, and see this beautiful inside and out couple on my screen every night! You can see some more previews in my story highlights

Congrats to Lindy, Zach, and their little girl!!! Congrats to Lindy, Zach, and their little girl!!! These two got married on Saturday in Georgetown, and the predicted all-day rain thankfully stayed away 🎉

I was delighted and honored that they moved their wedding from Kentucky to Colorado (where they live now) and asked me to photograph their nuptials. One of my favorite parts of weddings is seeing all the family and friends love on each other and the couple—Lindy and Zach’s community is amazing and I love that I got to meet them. I get to photograph the best people 💕and it’s clear from the way that people talk about these two that they are especially thoughtful, gracious, and welcoming. 

For now here are a few horizontal photo previews!
