Since we had family pictures, she was extremely patient with the little ones even when they pulled out the bubbles and refused to put them down.

She took photos of us as a family, couple, pictures of us parents individually with each kid and awesome individuals of our children. We moved to different parts of the beach for various shot options. and her edits were bright and airy making us look like we belong in a magazine. I now have some of the most beautiful photos of my family and especially individual shots of my little ones. HIGHLY recommend to anyone in the South Bay :)
