Family

Brand new babies bring so much joy and fun to young families.  We were invited into one such family’s home to take some candid photos of the baby and her new family.  Good times and a nice switch from all the wedding and engagement sessions as of late.  New babies, go out and get one of your own, cuz these photos should make everybody want one!!

Hey there,

Once again we are forging into new territory with this one…and it got messy.  Recently, we were contacted to photograph a cake smash session for a little girl who was celebrating her first birthday.  After some research we we’re excited to get down and dirty.  We met Emerson and her parents at their home in Lafayette, CA and setup in their backyard.  Once all the details were set in place Emerson was free to do her thing.   Admittedly, she was a dainty eater but after some encouragement she was willing to cake smash.

This session yielded some fun, candid, and colorful photos and we look forward to more cake smashing in the future!

Hey Guys,

Another family shoot come and gone!  So far the portrait season has been a busy one for us.  Joseph, Adrienne, and Noah recently moved to Bay Area from Louisiana and hit us up for a portrait session.  They had heard about us through a fellow skater friend — always love getting work by word of mouth.  This family was willing to travel from Castro Valley to one of our favorite Oakland locations and I hope we made it worth their while.  He and Adrienne seem super stoked on the results and so are we!

Still a few more weeks til’ the holidays are said and done and there’s still plenty of time to take advantage of our Holiday Print Promo.  Book a session before December 31st and receive $20 worth of free prints!

Keep it real,

Christian

Hey Folks,

Chris and I have broke new ground.  A prior client, Elise, who is involved with a local mom’s group contacted us with an idea.   After receiving her portraits from her family shoot,  she approached us with the idea of a mom’s group session totaling 6 babies and their mothers.  Chris and I hadn’t done a kid session of this size before but thanks to Elise’s master organizing it came together tight.   The group is based in Oakland and a local location was going to work best.  Lake Temescal, which is a favorite spot of ours, provided fitting scenery.   Each family had a 20 minute slot and we bounced from shoreline to boathouse and achieved some great results.   See for yourself.

As always one of the mainstays of the e&b photo sessions are family portrait work.  Recently Chris and I were hired to take some photos of a family in Oakland.  Its amazing that 80 percent of work in our third year is via reference.  A session from close to a year ago yielded the current shoot, I guess happy customers tell there friends and we have another opportunity to give quality work at an affordable price.  The session was slated up for an a.m. at one of our fave spots, Joaquin Miller park in the Oakland hills.  We arrived early and got oriented, shortly there after the family arrived.  Chris and I spent an hour and a half shooting up a storm.  The parents did their best to keep a young man and his older sister working, but kids want to be kids. Needless to say it helps that Chris and I have experience with kids and are able to shoot while running.  The results came out great and we have another set of happy campers on our hands. Be patient, friendly and shoot well is the mantra.  All in all good times and hopefully more satisfied customers!
