Today we're sharing our experience of taking family photos at the Quail Hill Trailhead in Orange County. This location is always a favorite, but what makes it even better is the magic of the rain. The rain brings green fields and plants, making this usually dead area come to life! From weddings to family photos, I’m all about capturing those milestones and telling your unique story in the most candid and timeless way possible. Come and read this blog and get inspired to create magical family memories with us!
Fall Family Photos in New York Through The Years
The Tiners: Shaw Cove Family Session
A LAGUNA BEACH FAMILY SESSION
I met up with Andrew, Sarah, and Jane at one of our favorite beaches - Shaw’s Cove. It was a summer night, so of course it was a little busy, but we still had so much fun. We let Jane do her thing and we followed her around, which led to lots of candids and such sweet family moments. I’ve found it’s so much better to let the kids pose (if we’re doing posed shots) and run around so it doesn’t even feel like we’re taking photos. You’ll walk away with so many beautiful photos like these.
The Gottliebs: Burbank Family Session
AN IN HOME FAMILY SESSION
I always get excited when I hear from Anastasiya and Brendan. I’ve had the pleasure of documenting so many important moments in their lives from their engagement photos to maternity photos to their recent shoot: an addition to the family.
They were kind enough to welcome me into their home in Burbank for some photos. I loved seeing their walls lined with photos from our various shoots — let me tell you, it means so much to a photographer to see how much you love the photos! We did some posed family photos then let Sophia just play. Sometimes it’s best to let the kids do their thing and follow them around rather than force them to smile at the camera.
Belinda + Ivan: Fairmount Park Family Session
A FAIRMOUNT PARK FAMILY SESSION
Originally, Belinda and Ivan wanted to take photos at Mt Rubidoux, but based on sunset and the clouds that were coming in, we decided to go to Fairmount Park. Who knew Riverside had so many great locations nearby each other. Fairmount Park had so many locations to offer and the clouds opened up a bit for us, too. They brought their rescue pup who made the shoot even more fun.
