Hope, Josh and Little Issac

Hope and Josh are amazing  – climbers, skiers, surfers, campers and all around good people.   They are pretty much up for anything and more times than not are leading the charge for a camping weekend in Yosemite or a surf trip to Baja.   And their little one – Issac – only seems to have heightened their resolve to get out and experience the world.  Definitely an inspiration for all of us parents that have may have slowed down a bit since having kids.

I met them at their house in the Mission district of San Francisco.  We shot there and at the Parque Ninos Unidos – a great little playground right around the corner.   What I loved most about this session, is how much their love and laughter just jump off of the page (or screen).  The three of them together must have loads of fun because in almost every picture they smiling and having fun.  You can’t fake that kind of emotion.

The Berg Family

In early June, just as I was leaving San Francisco for the AIDS Life Cycle, I got a random email from an old college friend – Jeff Berg.  Out of the blue, Jeff says that he wants to donate to ride.  His contribution was one of my most “I can’t believe people are so generous” moments.  Truly inspiring.  It took a couple months, but we arranged for a family sessions with his wife Friea and their darling daughter Carmelle.  We met at the Alta Vists Park and I was blown away.  The weather was crap (another day in a string of overcast days) but the views were amazing and play structure was great.  Definitely worth checking out.

Of course, the dew and the fog didn’t slow Carmelle down for one moment.  She found every wet slide and stepped in every puddle.  I just loved her big grin.

Kruse Family Photos

Best thing about being a photographer is getting to meet knew people and getting see something special about their lives.  Today I met Stephanie and Mike Kruse and their two beautiful children Lilly and Grason.   Lilly is just full of spunk and spent a good amount of time running and running and running the lawn at Julius Kahn.  Grason is only 11 months and his little personality is really starting to show.  Stephanie and Mike have their hands full for sure but it looks like they are doing a fabulous job.  It’s always great to photograph a family where you can just feel the love.

A few examples below.
