Sweet Sisters| Jenn Hoffmann Photography| Family Photographer| Danville, Ca

In my last few sessions, I have come across some real hams!  And little sister was no different last night!  At 13 months, she looked directly in the camera and gave the biggest, brightest smiles- and often times cracked herself up!  Big sister enjoyed playing in the leaves and scouting out new locations for them to take their pictures- such a fun evening!

Mama's Girl| Jenn Hoffmann Photography| Newborn Photographer| Moraga, Ca

This sweet little newborn only wanted her Mama (and food ;) )....  She wanted nothing to do with sleeping or posing for me and didn't want to leave Mom's arms!  But after having met her Mom, I can see why; she is so calm and nurturing- you'd never know this was her first baby!

Meet the Winner! | Jenn Hoffmann Photography| Family Photographer| Danville, Ca

Today I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing our winner from the "Get Ready for the Holidays" giveaway!  Such a cute family of four...the little ones are 11 month old twins!  So glad you guys won- enjoy your sneak peek!

Best Buddies| Jenn Hoffmann Photography| Child Photographer| Pleasanton, Ca

These little guys are so much fun together!  They cracked each other up with funny jokes and doing silly things to one another.  And big brother busted out poses better than those on America's Top Model!  He was seriously awesome!!!  I know they will forever be best buddies!

The "M" Family in Danville| Jenn Hoffmann Photography| Family Photographer| Danville, Ca

The "M" family met me out this evening for some fun in front of the camera!  They are dressed PERFECTLY for family portraits... not "matchy matchy" and color coordinated for that timeless look (they definitely won't look back on these outfits years from now and think, "what were we thinking?"!!!).  They were actually styled by Angela at Savvy Styled Sessions and I love the pop of color in little sis' dress!

 Trying not to smile for the camera...

Big Blue Eyes| Jenn Hoffmann Photography| Family Photographer| Danville, Ca

I have never seen more gorgeous eyes than this sweet six month old baby has.  The deep blue color and eyelashes that go on for miles are just an added bonus to her darling little happy smile!  The "F" family brought along their dog Pete (not pictured in the Sneak Peek) and had a great time just being together!  The light was beautiful as it filtered down through the trees!

Little Hands| Jenn Hoffmann Photography| Baby Photographer| Lafayette, Ca

Baby "S" is just about to turn 4 months and Mom wanted to capture all the little sweetness about her before she got any bigger!  And I was thrilled when this gorgeous Mama wanted to be in some of the pics with her daughter too (we as Moms just aren't in enough with our kids!)!

Baby "S" is teething and had her tiny little hands in or near her mouth the whole session. I LOVE baby hands and feet!!!

Not My Usual... |Jenn Hoffmann Photography| Macro Photography| Bay Area

I just rented the Canon 2.8L Macro lens and I have fallen in love!  It arrived today and I had fun playing out in our backyard to get these!  I can't wait to use it at my next few baby sessions!  I want this lens!

Sibling Sweetness- Mini Session| Jenn Hoffmann Photography| Child Photography| Livermore, Ca

This adorable brother and sister duo came out for a mini session yesterday.  Mom wanted to capture some "summery" images of just the two of them before the weather turned and will be back as a family for the next mini session in November!  In addition to these two photographs, we have a lot of the two of them being so sweet together!

I think we have a GQ model on our hands (LOVE this in black and white too!)...

Having Fun| Jenn Hoffmann Photography| Family Photographer| Livermore, Ca

Yesterday was a beautiful day out in Livermore- perfect for getting some family photos for the upcoming Holidays!  The "E" family took advantage of the day and we got some great images from it!  Mom likes a more candid style.... capturing them interacting together and having fun!  Enjoy!

A New Addition- Mini Session| Jenn Hoffmann Photography | Family Photographer| Livermore, Ca

Since this family took their Holiday photos last year, they have added another family member... sweet puppy, Charlie!  So glad they chose to include him in their portraits this year!  And Mom is the ever creative founder of Paperboxpress where you can find her "passion for pictures, parties and paper"!

2nd Time is the Charm| Jenn Hoffmann Photography| Newborn Photographer| Livermore, Ca

I visited this sweet baby girl at 12 days old, but she was not in the mood to have her picture taken.  So I came back today and she was a perfect little model; she even let me put her in a pumpkin!  Look at all of her hair- and Mom has all sorts of pretty bows to dress her up with!  She's definitely a girly girl, pretty in pink and will have Daddy wrapped around her finger!

Puppy Love| Jenn Hoffmann Photography| Personal| Bay Area

There isn't anything cuter than a puppy..... well, maybe a few things are at 2 in the morning when the puppy is crying- but you know what I mean! ;)  Meet Norman- a 9 week old, 12.5 lb, English Bulldog puppy that we just added to our family.  Even with all of the chaos and craziness that comes with a family of four- our house was just not complete without a little furry friend.  He is such a sweet heart and we look forward to all of the fun that we have in store with him!
