Family Fun in Central Park

For this recent session, we headed to Central Park. Not New York, but in San Mateo. ;) 

With the extra rainy weather we had during the spring, this family’s session kept getting rescheduled. We were excited for the sunny weather to finally arrive so we took advantage of it!

The first thing you notice about this family is the smiles. Each one of them beamed a smile when I met them. I heart smiley people. ;) The second thing you notice, is what a beautiful family they are!

This is probably one of my favorites from their session. Big brother had a way of making little sister smile and laugh.  Aren’t they just too sweet together???

The one thing that could make big brother smile was talking about Star Wars. Lucky for me, I know my Jedi-talk.

Little Sister is just a little over 1 and full of curiosity. I loved watching her explore, chase after brother and watch everything around her.

She took a pause from sitting with brother in this image and I just love the expression on her face.

The security of being in daddy’s arms….

You can feel the love ooze out of mom in these next shots. Here she is with the loves of her life.

OH! I forgot to mention the special guest during our photo session! Meet Fluffy the Snail.  Big brother found him on his way to meet with me. Fluffy the Snail was kind enough to stay through the entire session and wait patiently on the sidelines. ;)

I figured this was a perfect shot to end with… :) (another of my favorites!)
