Little Moments at Quail Hollow Ranch

Family portraits are about so much more than pictures. They are about glimpses into everyday life and the bonds that tie us to one another. Each family unit is unique, and so too are the moments that we, the photographers, are privileged enough to document. As their family grows and changes, Kyle, Maya, and Devin will be able to revisit the quiet (and the not so quiet) moments shared between them one beautiful spring morning at Quail Hollow Ranch.

I’m Ready For My Close-Up!

We had no idea what a treat we were in for when Claire contacted us looking to have some studio portraits taken for her portfolio. As soon as she got in front of the camera we knew she was a natural talent! Keep an eye out for this fresh face! She has a promising career ahead of her!

Here’s The Story…

of TWO lovely ladies, Diana and Megan! Sisters so alike you’d think they were twins! Their collective minds had the same stroke of genius when they decided to surprise their parents, Lyle and Marie, with a family photo shoot at beautiful Wilder Ranch in Santa Cruz. Diana’s husband, Noah, even came along for the fun! As you can probably tell from the photos, we had A LOT of fun!

Family Fun at Vasona Park

Hello? Oh it is you, February. Didn’t see you sneak up on us there! It has been an exceptionally busy couple of months for the Sawyers and time has been flying by! Luckily, busy for Josh and Stephanie can usually be defined as “engaging in enriching excursions with a hint of frivolity.” Frivolity was certainly had when we met up with Ty, Alysse, and their wonderful children at Vasona Park in Los Gatos. Vasona’s scenic landscape and many unique features made this family photo shoot into a glorious fun filled afternoon at the park. Be it tree, bench, bridge, or rock, there was no location that this fearless family would not conquer, and we got the shots to prove it! All in all, work was once again combined with pleasure.
