The series of events that led me to photograph one of the funnest Santa Cruz Family Sessions I have ever had! One of my clients, and biggest supporters, gifted her favorite, closest relative, and only brother a Family Session as a Christmas gift. Her brother and his nuclear family had a tradition of renting a […]

We got to spend a really great time together; with lots of laughter, and remembrance of our childhood. We also […]
