The Gury Family :: Sacramento Lifestyle Photography

My newest love is going into a family’s home and documenting them as they are, real life, real smiles.  The Gury family recently added a puppy and kitten to their family of 4 so this was the perfect time to document their life.  Yes, their kids were very active and a little crazy during our session, mom even apologized for how “crazy” her kids were being, but I kept reminding her that’s the point….not necessarily for them to be crazy but just to have fun with each other and with the family and animals like daily life because lets face it, when you have kids life is crazy, there is never a dull moment and while you’re in the moment you’re dreaming of peaceful moments but so quickly we move out of this stage in the family’s life and onto new and bigger things.  Sooner than they know it their kids will be teenagers and won’t play together and love each other like they do right now, and that’s why I love documenting these stages so much, it’s so meaningful, it’s personal.  This is what their mom had to say after seeing her pictures: “We are in love with these!!! I walked away from it feeling like my kids are so hard to get pictures of and to get them to cooperate, I felt the same way the last time you took our pictures too, but just like last time you got so many great shots!!!!”  This is what I live for, this is why I feel so strongly why I’m meant to be a photographer.  To document life, beautiful and chaotic life, but when you see the pictures it’s so beautiful!  I hope you enjoy a peak into the Gury Family…..

Gilbert & Casey :: Married

Oh Gil and Casey, they are just so adorable and so in love!  After being together since High School their friends and family were over the moon excited for them to “finally” be getting married and I feel so honored to have been there to document their day and their love!  They were married at the San Ramon Golf Course and it was such a beautiful day surrounded by so many friends and family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sky for sunset pictures, my heart just melted!

Patrick, Sasha and Sherida :: Sacramento Family Photographer

I have been photographing these 3 since Patrick was 13 years old.  Now, 18 years old and heading off to College in the Fall he requested a photo session with just his 2 sisters because he’s going to miss them….and no matter what they say now, they are going to miss him too.  We had a blast, goofing around and then splashing in the water.  When their mom came to view their pictures she said the girls couldn’t stop talking about how much fun they had, and that means the world to me!

Chris & Melissa :: Sacramento Maternity Photographer

This sweet pair is expecting their first baby, a girl coming soon and I can’t wait to meet her!  They were so much fun and down for anything, as you can see at the end of this post.

Dylan & Charlie :: Sacramento Kids Photographer

I adore these girls!  I’ve been photographing them since Charlie (the youngest) was in her mommy’s belly and now she just turned 3!  They are just the cutest, and now add in their super adorable puppy (that I just wanted to take home with me after our session, but my husband would’ve had a heart attack!).  I had so much fun with these 3!!
