A Golden Afternoon at Alviso Adobe | VC Fall Family 2024


There’s something truly magical about fall at Alviso Adobe Park in Pleasanton, California. The light filters gently through the trees, the leaves begin to turn golden, and the white fences and wooden paths create a dreamy backdrop for cozy, heartfelt family portraits.


This session with the VC Family was especially meaningful. They’ve come back to me every year for their fall photos, and it’s such an honor to watch their little one grow and their love deepen over time. Documenting these sweet milestones and building lasting relationships with returning families is one of the most rewarding parts of my work.


We spent the afternoon walking the trails, laughing, playing, and capturing the connection they share. Their soft, neutral tones paired perfectly with the warmth of the setting, and every image feels timeless.
