Family Session | The Riveras | Lodi Lake Park, Lodi CA

During our Pre-Shoot Consult call, I asked Karen what she wanted to remember about her family at this point in their lives. She said she wanted to remember the personalities of her kids and how their family has fun. With this in mind, I set out for a shoot with lots of movement and opportunities for Karen’s family to interact. Her youngest had so much energy during their family photo shoot. I think my informal goal was to tire him out!

Special Time with Mom and Dad

I try to give families variety in their photos. The Riveras were game with mix and match photos with kids and a specific parent. These give you a glimpse into their close relationships.

Aren’t the girls adorable with their matching outfits? Just in time for Spring. They did give the youngest one a hard time for his “salmon” colored shorts. I think the color is fashion forward!

Just Mom and Dad

My goal in every family session is to give Mom and Dad a chance at “just them” photos. I think it is a great way to celebrate how far your family and relationship has come! There are times though that I still let the kids join in even if it is “just parents” time. The Rivera kids were too adorable not to include!

Thank you Rivera Family for letting me capture these moments for you! I hope you guys had a great time during this family photo shoot and would want to do it again!

Dina @rodijuha08_doky and her family are avid #HarryPotter fans!  So I was not surprised when they asked if a portion of their #FamilySession be Potter themed!  If the University of the Pacific Conservatory of Music stood as Marshall College for Indiana Jones, I then thought the campus would also be a great stand in for #Hogwarts! Check out this #reel to see all the magical fun we had πŸ˜ƒβ

I feel like I won the lottery!  I have 11 people and 3 out of 4 dogs looking at the camera!  Sioxson Family for the win! 😁 ⁠
⁠
It's been a pleasure to work with Jenn @sunandski and her family for the past 2 years/4 shoots 😊 Last Sunday's session was special because all her kids and significant others were in town. We also had 4 fur babies join us.  They set the bar high for large family sessions!⁠

Looking forward to photographing Dina @rodijuha08_doky and her family again!  Tomorrow's session would be their 4th family shoot with me since they moved to California.  We'll be shooting at UOP, one of my favorite locations and we'll get to play with some themed ideas.  SUPER EXCITED!! Hope your weekend plans are as exciting as mine!⁠

Happy National Sons Day Adrian @emperorchong982! ⁠
⁠
Thank you for always humoring me when I tell you that you will be in a photo shoot (even when you don't want to πŸ˜…). You are always ready with a smile when I ask (like here with your Godmother Joy and Ate JD). I thank God for you and how you have enriched your parents' lives. ⁠
⁠
Good luck on race day today at Lodi Lake Park πŸ˜€β
