A Very Venice Photo Shoot | Venice, CA Child Photographer

October 28, 2011

Last Sunday was a bit crazy in terms of weather.  It was hot (80) near my home, and mid-winter (California Winter) in Venice.  It was chilly and overcast, but it was perfect for photos.  🙂

My first meeting with this family occurred during last year’s Tales & Toys Fall Mini Sessions.  I had a wonderful time with N, T, and their Aunt.  This year I had the pleasure of photographing the kids with their mom as well as their aunt and grandmother.  I also met Charlie the dog too.  There is a lot of love in this family, and it is beautiful to see it come across so honestly in the photographs.

 

Here are a few from the day…

Last weekend, Tales & Toys had their grand re-opening party.  I stopped by to say hi and to grab a couple of photos.
