I’ve been doing some commercial work for this couple, so it was a no-brainer for them to hire me for their family portraits this year. Carmel River State Beach is a special place to them, so I was happy to explore a new location for their family photos. Their girls are adorable, and they’re all […]

It had been quite a few years since these girls last had their photos professionally taken together, and with Morgan off at college, getting them all together would only prove more challenging. It was an overcast day and a little chilly, but the girls had plenty of energy, and I had them run around a […]

Great family portraits are awesome to hang on the wall. But sometimes, there’s just too many good ones to choose from – or more likely, simply not enough wall-space available for prints. In those cases, I recommend my clients invest in custom-designed albums that tell the story of their fun photo shoot with GoodEye Photography […]

The awesome thing about the Santa Cruz/Monterey area is you can shoot at beaches year-round, and they pretty much always look the same. The only thing that changes is the clothing people wear. I photographed Nick and Tara’s beautiful family of five (if you include Oso, the dog) a week before Christmas, but you’d never […]

Monica is a regular client of mine, and being an Aptos resident she really loves her beach – Rio Del Mar / Seacliff. We go there every time we shoot together, and somehow we make it new each time. For this particular shoot, we were aiming to get some great photos for their Christmas cards. […]

It’s always great to capture 3 generations in one photo shoot, especially at a fun location like Seabright Beach in Santa Cruz. It’s no easy task to coordinate four families and their schedules for one shoot, especially when they don’t all live in the area. Luckily the stars were in alignment, the weather was gorgeous, […]

OK, so there’s a lot more photos in this post than is typical for a family portrait session, but Tom and Kristin have five photogenic, fun kids that made it really hard for me to narrow them down. They live near Seascape beach in Aptos, so it was a natural choice for their family photo […]

This is a fun, short family photography session taken at Capitola Beach. Michelle told me she really only wanted one photo, but of course you know this isn’t my style. Let’s have options, baby! These guys have tons of personality and I thoroughly enjoyed spending this evening with them. Here’s some of my favorite photos from […]

When Kyle called about 30 minutes before we were supposed to meet, I tried to postpone on him due to the weather – but as he reminded me that Stephanie was due very soon, postponing wasn’t an option. Of course I mentally slapped myself, and shook off the rainy day attitude and quickly left to […]

It’s not too often I have a photo session with a grandma and grandson – maybe this is the very first one. But it really is a special treat to see the loving interaction between them, the way Thomas can make Joanne’s face alight with joy by handing her a flower – it’s truly precious. […]
