Baby Brady, newborn | Kim Lind Photography, Pleasanton, CA

Last week was a banner week for me. Two newborns, two great sets of new parents, makes me one happy photographer! Baby Brady was just one week old when we did his newborn session. Tiny, and perfect...and surrounded by love, just the way it should be.

I love the connections I get to make as a photographer, especially with brand new parents. So when it was time to leave, and Brady's dad said we had to "hug it out"...well, what's better than that? Here's your preview, "G" family, it was truly a pleasure meeting you and your precious baby boy!

Back to the beach! | Kim Lind Photography, Capitola, CA

The first beach session of 2010! Oh, Capitola, how I love you...and how I love this first photo! Twirling perfection...


I love that only the youngest one is looking at the camera in this one. Everybody's smiling, but not necessarily looking at the camera - - this is my favorite kind of family portrait.




5 year old in flight:
Sweet mother and daughter moment - a photo treasure.


Two sweet sisters, the ocean at their feet and the reflections on the sand make a beautiful scene.

A gorgeous day, a really great family...I can't wait to head back to the beach!

AJ's Baptism | Kim Lind event photography, Fremont, CA

Last Sunday was a big day for the "D" family - the day of their beautiful baby boy's baptism. And this was no small affair! The baptism was at a beautiful (and packed!) church in Fremont followed by a huge luncheon reception afterwards...this boy has lots of family and friends! It was a real pleasure to be a part of it, and capture the memories of this special day for a great family.

My baby, 5 years old! | Kim Lind family photography, Pleasanton, CA

It's hard to believe that 5 years ago today the world changed forever. Well, at least it did for me. 5 years ago today I became this little guy's mommy. Since the daffodils are still in bloom out in Livermore I convinced him to join me for a quick 5-year-old photo shoot. To my surprise, he was all for it! I always say my own kids are my toughest subjects but not this day :)

He likes to wear cowboy boots, and this pose was his idea. He said it would be "super duper" cool. I agree!

Happy Birthday, Brady!
