Welcome Hey there, thanks for stopping by! Welcome to my little corner of the internet, my place to share my voice and photography. In case you don't know me, I am Sara (that's me to the left, the one without a big white furry coat). I am a photographer based in the San Francisco Bay area, California. I LOVE my work, and you will see a bit of that sneaking in here. I also use this as a place to share other parts of my life. You will find adventures, food and little tidbits about my life with my darling husband and our two fat cats.  Please feel free to have a look around and even leave me a note. I would love to hear from you!

I met Nicole and Pruth at their home and we all piled into their car and headed over to the green belt in Davis. The fall colors where here... I knew this would be a pretty session. There is nothing like warm orange, yellow, green and brown as a backdrop to a family portrait.

Rowen is a cute little bugger. We took turns telling one another stories as I was taking his portrait. I am pretty sure that this is about the time in the story that the little boy finds a treasure chest in the middle of the forest.

I love it when I catch these little out takes. It gives a better idea of how family sessions go, especially when there are little ones involved. I have the perfect setting, stunning light, everyone is in place and...wait a minute...where is Dane???

It may take a little bit of effort, but eventually we do get everyone in the shot.

And after we get the formal shots out of they way, we can play. These are when I get some of my favorite images. That, and I am a sucker for a good game of hide and seek.

Nicole and Pruth, thank you for sharing your family with me for a day. It is so special to be able to document a little snippet of time for you. These little guys are growing us so quickly!
