Family portrait shoot in Lafayette

I had the pleasure last weekend of having a portrait shoot with a family who actually lives on the same street I live on. Love Lafayette! Love Lamorinda! My commute time was 1:16 minutes... fastest ever. Their adorable 2 year old is named Charlotte. I actually met her before I met her parents. She was the very first friend my daughter, Sammie, made at First Steps Learning Center. Charlotte has moved on to pre-school so it was so nice to see her again. For the many who have shot portraits of children between the ages of 2-5, you know it's no easy task. Both Eric and Melissa was great in getting Charlotte to smile at the perfect moment. It's great when you get to work with such a nice family. Here are a few of my favorite shots from that day.
