This Berkeley family portrait session stars a family of four bright spirits who know how to have fun together: Faramarz, Deb and their two spunky kids, Leyla and Max. As we all know, it’s not easy to find time to make portraits happen. So when we finally commit, the pay-off is big. The family session is a fun event with laughter and lots of movement. Parents are often surprised that kids let me cajole them and make them laugh. And, finally, parents get to be in the images and give their kids a gift of portraits of the family finally together. I like to always have each parent with each child, individual portraits and the parents also alone. When’s the last time you’ve had a updated portrait with your partner? I know! A long time…tell me about it. Not only will these portraits bring joy to the family today, but they will increase in emotional value over time. Thanks again to this great family.
