Autumn Mini Sessions 2024


This years autumn mini sessions started off on such a beautiful path! I wanted to capture more than just the standard "look at the camera and say cheese" type of photos. don't get me wrong those are also very nice to have, but this year i wanted to get even deeper and romanticize your stories!

what better location to get that 2000's rom-com feel than the prospect park in redlands, ca. this place totally reminds me of the park scene in "when harry met sally" or that "gilmore girls" atmosphere! So scroll down to see the first and emotion filled sessions i was able to capture.

What i loved most about this mini family session was their beauty to "let go". what i mean by this is, they allowed me to take full creativity as well as let their children be themselves.

the kids wanted to explore so we encouraged it and they not only created some memories but helped me capture some of the cutest and emotional photos!

Tiffany & tony had such a romantic feel to their session. i cannot make you connect with your lover but when you begin to both share that emotional intimacy, it shows in the most beautiful way possible! i truly try my best to make sure you feel as comfortable and safe as can be so you are open to "falling in love" all over again!

that's exactly what they did here and i knew once they got done reading each others notes to one another they felt their hearts pulling together like two magnets!

Bryan & Lauren

THIS IS THE SESSION I WANTED TO REALLY GO INTO DETAIL BECAUSE...


bryan & lauren had the last time slot for the day, this slot is known as the blue hour pocket. this is when you get that last bit of glow from the sunset, those beatuiful blue hues in between sunset and nighttime, as well as those nighttime lights!

as you scroll, you'll see all the colors and how they change with the time in real time!

We began this session with them getting cuddly and being silly. which is perfect because i always want you to see yourself in your photos. then we moved onto the notes to eachother. here is where we got a bit more emotionally intimate, they let each other pour their feelings onto paper which helped them show their feelings later on in the session.

lastly, i wanted to capture them as they were, playful, hopeful, in love, ready for what the future has to offer them. so that's exactly what we did! they played, he gave her a piggy-back ride, they danced and twirled!

and like i said many times before, when you let go that is when i can really capture your magic! just like i did theirs!
