One of my favorite reasons I love photographing family sessions is because I get to watch my clients grow and document theses really special moments for them each year. Most of my families I have photographed for many years, such as this family, and each time I see them it’s like catching up with friends and taking photos of each stage of their lives!

We went to a Santa Cruz beach and took some family & maternity photos, walking along the sand, playing in the water, and climbing on the rocks. It was such a beautiful day and the absolute perfect weather for a family session at the beach!
