Lots of fun with the girls...- Amy Perl Bay Area Photographer

This is the second year (third portrait session) I have been invited to photograph these three wonderful girls. The first time I photographed them was last summer, and I came away with some of my all time favorite pictures. Then the next session I did, again, I came away with new all time favorite pictures....and now this time, again, I love these photos. The girls are amazing, they are calm, fun, comfortable, and their RAD parents let them be themselves for the photos. This is so so important. If we try to MAKE kids do what WE want or what WE expect, it's much trickier than really letting them be themselves. I just end up playing with them, I just happen to have a camera.
Thank you for making my job so fun.

Newest Portraits - Amy Perl Bay Area Photographer

After a nice long summer, I've been diving back into full time work with some wonderful families that I've been invited to photograph. It's always such an honor to get the phone call, or the email from a complete stranger who wants ME to photograph their babies/their kids/them. It's such a cool thing, definitely an ego boost. ;) Each time, I'm reminded why I do what I do. I mean, I get to make fun photos for a family to keep forever of the most important thing in the world. PLUS, I get to play with little ones and hold teeny babies...I love it.

Here's some shots from this past week
