Mother & Sons | Outdoor Sunflower Field Photography Session | SF Bay Area Photographer

We photographed this Mommy & Me Photo Session outside in a field, right at sunset. I used golden backlighting to create a sun-soaked, candid, summertime feel for these family portraits. I simply adore their unique connections here. This session features unposed moments and authentic interactions. These sweet boys were full of energy and a healthy dose of mischief. It’s always fun to take little boys outside and let them run barefoot, wild & free, right where they belong!

Outdoor Boho Family Session | Mountain View Photographer | Iris and Lace Photography

Sometimes I am lucky enough to meet a family so good and wholesome and fun that the world just seems like a brighter place. This family is definitely like that for me. It warms my heart so much to know that such wonderful families are out there, and I am lucky enough to occasionally cross paths with them in my particular line of work. Also, shoutout to this awesome Dad as well! This sweet father is one of the most involved and enthusiastic Dads I’ve ever photographed. I’ve photographed lots of great Dads but he definitely deserves a special mention. And this family is so incredibly close and loving with each other, it’s clearly evident in their photos. I am so excited for their two beautiful young daughters to grow up and see where their beautiful paths take them.
