Maternity Session at Gamble Garden, Palo Alto

I recently captured Lareine's growing family at Palo Alto's picturesque Gamble Gardens — a beautiful backdrop of colorful blooms.

As golden hour light filtered through the spring blooms, we captured the excitement and love of this growing family. Damian, soon to be a big brother, stole the show with his playful energy, running through the gardens and curiously peeking at the camera.

The session beautifully blended tender moments between Lareine and Jose with the joyful chaos of family life with a toddler. Soft touches on Lareine's bump, Damian's sweet smiles, and the family's shared laughter all tell the story of this precious time in their lives.

These images freeze a unique moment for this family - their last spring as a family of three, full of anticipation for their new addition. From posed portraits showcasing Lareine's pregnancy to candid shots of family play, each photo captures the love and connection that defines this chapter in their journey.

We look forward to continuing the Sison Santos family story with a newborn session later this summer, documenting the next beautiful phase in their family's life.

From Lareine:

“Just wanted to tell you that I AM OBSESSED!! They’re so cute and look way less chaotic than what it felt actually taking the photos with a two year old”
