Alyssa and Ben is having the sweetest family. Their son is obsessed with dinosaurs and tractors and their beautiful chunky cheeks nine-month-old daughter is stunning with her piercing blue eyes. Alyssa and Ben are fortunate to have an almond orchard right in their backyard.  They literally walked to their session! Fun fact: Ben and I went to high school together and I have given Alyssa a photography lesson. You can view more family portrait sessions here.

Alyssa and Ben included their sweet puppy dog in their family picture because pets are important family family members and they need to be documented during this special time too. One of my favorite moments from their session was win their son roared like a dinosaur and this created a really genuine smiles and laughter from everyone! Their gorgeous and sweet daughter enjoys keeping her eyes on her very entertaining brother and she laughs at him frequently.

Alyssa and Ben, it was such a treat to get to meet your children and to have the opportunity to spend the afternoon with you family. The timing of the almond blossoms were perfect for your family pictures. I am so glad your puppy dog with able to join in on the family fun too. I enjoyed practicing my videography skills at the end of the session too.  It was fun to chat with you and to shop talk tractors and tyrannosaurus rex.  I am so excited for you to see some of my many favorites from here your family session in your backyard!
