“A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove…but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child.” ~ Forest E. Witcraft I was ever so lucky to meet this […]
that last one is gorgeous!!!
Couldn’t resist a quick share from yesterday’s family session in San Francisco. I spent a few hours with this lovely family walking around their neighborhood and peeking into their daily routine. Little H had the sweetest disposition and went from awake to sleepy to awake. Hope you like your sneak peek! ps. Talking about Urban […]
Loving the Urban Baby photo shoot!
I love the photos — my favorites are (1) dad looking down at Henry and (2) Mom holding Henry with Henry’s feet in the front.
Thanks for sharing!
As I design their album I though I’d share a few more from the fabulous session with this Texan family. One of the images selected for the album didn’t work as well so I processed a few more. And I so love what evolved as the see-saw narrative. Here goes…
Love these!! Fun family, great light, and great post processing!
Once upon a time, not so long ago, I was invited to a tea party by two little princesses and a sock monkey. One was two years old and the other was five. Both the little girls loved pink. Perhaps, the dad not so much. But everyone was invited for the tea party. And that […]
I love the sock monkey! Great idea. What sweet little subjects!
Awe! SO cute! I adore sock monkeys. They are just so happy and so much fun! I hope my kids have fond memories of theirs.
Can you see me dancing?? I am excited to share that Storybox Art has been nominated as the best family photographer in the San Francisco bay area by Nickelodeon’s Parents Connect website. The nomination is for the 2009 Parent’s Pick awards. What are parent’s pick awards? You can read all about it here but the […]
Congratulations, Alpana! What an honor!
A well deserved honor , Alpana. Congratulations!!!
Alpana, I hope you win this contest, but whatever happens, we all know, you *are* the best family photographer not only in SF but in the world!
I first met Mommy R online several years back while on my quest to have a baby. She visited the bay area when I was preggo with R and we got to meet in person. We stayed in touch off and on and then reconnected more recently on Facebook. She emailed me recently to say […]
What a fun happy session. Beautiful kiddos.
The sneak peek teaser is torture – can’t wait to see the rest! You rock, did you know that?! and I already miss your beautiful boy, wish we could have spent more time with him. Any chance you can take him out of school tomorrow to play with us?! LOL!
Gorgeous family, looks like a fun session!
These are just beautiful…how will they choose?!
Great set!!! You can really tell they were having a fun session. Gorgeous kids.
what a GREAT session!!!!!!! i can see how much you and your clients had together! Wonderful work!
Lovely shots, the family looks so lively. No wonder the kids were wiped when I saw them for dinner that night, I hadn’t seen them for 2-3 years and they were tuckered out with the long shoot, expended lots of energy. Glad the pics captured their energy so nicely.
Wonderful session! Beautiful family and gorgeous images;)
Looks like this was a really fun session, love these shots Alpana 😉
Hi Alpana,
So good to hear about you again. R and I have kept in touch and we met finally in India. Great pictures!!!
How funny! Before reading your post–I was just thinking–that little boy MUST be related to your R. Great set! What fun for them!
Alpana
those are great pictures of K&K. I haven’t met them. R – they look like real fun kids. Happy 5th b’day to them!
Raji, You’re a major babe! You look fantastic! The photos are awesome. Everyone’s laughing, looks SO natural! Give me the photographer’s contact info and all, and I’d love to book something in september (we go to CA every September). Deepa
While it is nice to have that spot of sunshine and warm weather, it has been great to have that much needed rain out here. It was a light sprinkle and we got some great shots with this little one and her grandma playing in puddles and running around. It was pretty cold so we […]
I love these. Your post processing is beautiful and I love all your angles!
Amazing photos. Love the one of the girl & her grandmother. Wish we all had pictures like that.
Wow! alpana, they are great.

sarah ellsworth - those are great!!!! i especially love the black and white of you two. those little feet are adorable!!!
Ceci - I love this last photo. Although Mom and baby are the major focus, we get to see proud Papa in the background as well. Great photos!
samantha limcaco - hi alpana- WOW! we loove the pictures that you’ve posted so far. we CANT wait to see the remaining photos!! thanks again for such a great afternoon- it didn’t feel like a photoshoot and yet when we see the results…we are amazed.
best,
samantha, bryce and henryp
Bruce - Too darn cute!!
Glenys - Especially love the one of Samantha and Henry. Also the one on the swing laughing is priceless. Wish you were closer!!
Rashmi Tabada - I love the smile in the 2nd picture.
He looks so “cool” in the 3rd picture.
The mom is the highlight of the last one. I like it.
In general, no matter the surrounding, the focus is still the subject…..love it.
I also like the surroundings aren’t the traditional ones.
B L Doyle - After much thought we choice the picture with Henry P in the Green Hat as our 1st choice. The reason is because the whole Family is in the shot. If the Black & White photo had the 3 of them in it we would have picked it as #1. We feel that Black & White is always more dramatic, it also has a timeless apperance.
B Lolo & B Lola
Gabrielle Myers - So cute! Great pics!
SupD - Hey Alps!
I like the first and the fourth pic the best. If I had to pick just one, I guess I would pick the fourth. It seems to me like they have both just seen the dad coming up the road.
Barbara Byars - I absolutely adore all of these pictures! My favorite is the first one……….Mom and Henry are both totally beautiful!!!!! This was a true pleasure to view!
Karen - What fabulous pictures. Samantha- you are such a shinning mom!! Yeay!
Carol Cirilli - I’m so glad you got some professional pictures taken. Henry looks so calm and happy. Tough to pick the “best” as they all offer something special. I think #1 shows the similar traits you both have – but I love the vibrant colors of the rest of the photos.
The last photo is great to have all 3 of you in it, although Bryce is off in the distance.
Would love to see the rest of the shots soon.
Good luck in the contest!
Carol
Jen - GREAT photos. Nothing beats candids- especially smiley swing shots 🙂
Norm - That first B&W shot is awesome. Area there more like that?
Who’s that man hiding in the doorway in pic4?! Run!
The photographer commented that Henry “…. went from awake to sleepy to awake.”
Was Henry in a meeting?
Christine - What a beautiful family! And what an awesome giveaway! Just peeking in to say “hello.”
Sagar - super de duper cute!
dana - Beautiful photos of a beautiful family. I can’t wait to see more. I love the family shot in the alley. So cool. Nice job!
alpana - Thanks so much for the participation in the giveaway. It is now closed. The random winner for the frame is Barbara Byers. You would need to send me your address for the prize.
Wilfrido Limcaco - all photos were like taken be professionals, e.g., Time/Life Magazines … so impressive!!!
