What great fun this family was! Last Friday I met the Tumbas family at Lacy Park in San Marino. We walked all around the beautiful park and they let me sit them on the ground several times (thanks!) Just a side note to anyone thinking of getting a portrait done with me: I often will have you sit on the ground or in unusual places so make sure you don’t wear white pants or something you do not want to get dirty. They were very obliging. There was a lot of laughter with this group. They obviously have a great family dynamic. I took some extra photos of Elise and her fiance, Michael… I couldn’t resist, being a wedding photographer and all. : ) Thanks for letting me play with you guys!

Krueger Family at Mentryville

I photographed the Krueger Family this year at Mentryville up at the end of Pico Canyon on S. We did a formal studio session last year and next year they want to try the beach. Location shoots are always fun and if you are wanting to start a tradition, I say, each year find a new and completely different location so your friends, family, and clients who receive your holiday cards will look forward to your to see where you went this year. There are so many options in So Cal. Here are some thoughts: Do a fun city shot in Old Town Pasadena complete with mittens, scarves, and some hot cocoa. Go Christmas tree shopping, you know, one of the cut-it-down-yourself places, and bring the photographer along. Have the photographer come to your Christmas tree decorating party (just your family, of course). Think out side the box and you will be surprised at how many things you can think of. If you know of a great location or a fun idea, I would love to hear about it in the comment section of this post!
