		<title>The ‘S’ Family</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I'm pretty familiar with this family. In fact, I work with the mom and we've been to the birthday parties for each other's kids. But this is actually the first time I've photographed them]]></description>

		<title>The ‘Q’ Family</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This mom and daughter are really familiar with me and having their portraits taken. This is the 6 or 7th event/portrait session I've had which has included them and their extended family. Needless to say, I didn't have to spend much time warming them up to capture their wonderful smiles. Just a few highlights from their fall session.]]></description>

		<title>The &#8216;L&#8217; Family</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It's pretty rare when two older children are BOTH into having their photos taken. But with the 'L' family it was actually pretty fun since both kids were giving me ideas about poses]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Continuing with updates on recent family portrait sessions, the 'M' Family was a lot of fun, but kind of a crazy session. As you can see, they have one older daughter and two twins which means it's more kids than parents!]]></description>

		<title>The ‘T’ Family</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had a lot of fun photographing families at the end of last year. It's actually a refreshing change from wedding photography since the interactions are so different with a family that's relaxed and having fun in the park (as compared to couples living through the most important day of their lives!!)]]></description>

		<title>A+P Wedding &amp; Reception</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It's been a little while since I posted wedding photos. Well, I'd like to share a lovely outdoor ceremony from last month. For this post, I'm focusing on just the details and decoration so you won't see the usual examples of emotions that I normally include. ]]></description>

		<title>Baby A – Newborn Session</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just had to share a few photos I did for baby A. He's such a darling and was just 7 days old during this first portrait session. He was just barely 6.5 pounds when born so you can image how tiny he was! Luckily, this little guy was so sleepy that we had a really easy time taking these wonderful photos of him. Welcome to the world little guy!]]></description>

		<title>Get tough on yourself</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I went to a meetup group yesterday in Oakland run by Jules Bianchi, a Bay Area based wedding &#038; portrait photographer. This was a somewhat special meetup since it offered an opportunity to get to know Dane Sanders. While I've read Dane's "Fast Track Photographer" book and have watched several of his podcasts, I didn't really know what to expect.]]></description>
