Mother & Son Beach Session in Marin Headlands
When Cece reached out about capturing a Mother's Day session with her son Ethan, I was thrilled to recommend one of my favorite Bay Area locations: Rodeo Beach in the Marin Headlands. This stunning beach offers everything I love for family photography – gorgeous golden hour light, fewer crowds at sunset, and that magical coastal backdrop that makes every family shine.

Kim-Perez Family - Family Photos at the Arizona Cactus Garden
As expected from an event planner, Juliette and her family showed up in impeccable style. I couldn't help but admire the muted, neutral tones of their outfits, perfectly balanced when placed against one another but each could stand on its own and had a unique style. It was literally the gold standard for dressing for a family photoshoot.
