Falling Leaves. Scarf-wearing weather. Steaming Coffee. My warm bed. Holiday Portraits. Hugs. These are some of the things I love about Autumn in Southern California. I wanted to share a few images from a Holiday Family Portrait I did recently for a family very near and dear to my heart. Family shoots like theirs leave everyone more excited about life, more in love with each person in the family… and they’re pictures to look back on and feel all the warm fuzzies of the holidays over and over again. I loved shooting with the Armando Family for many reasons, but what I loved most was their vision for the portraits. They wanted creative, but traditional photos with a “not so traditional” flair. They coordinated themselves perfectly and not all “matchy-matchy”. They brought props to help achieve their vision…. and they’re just a fun and laid back type of family… so great! The weather turned out perfectly, though it had rained the night before… and the light was truly…. delicious. Check out my favorite few from the shoot….
Armando Family, You made my day and it was so fun spending time with you to document 2010. You’re a beautiful family whose love for each other inspires hope… for real. Have a wonderful holiday season!
