The Mogul Family

I’ve been working with my wonderful assistant Nancy since May of this year. She loves to do baby and pet photography. I love to do weddings, wildlife, and travel (ok- and pretty much everything else too). I wanted to help get her some more experience, so we headed off to work with some of my previous portrait clients in San Francisco, with me assisting Nancy this time. Nancy took charge and I got to sit back and have fun taking pictures. I have seen a lot of work done in a studio, and I don’t care so much for the formal and static photos that result. I much prefer an approach I like to call “lifestyle portraiture.” Basically taking photos of people, babies, weddings etc in an environment that is natural, and reflects an actual view into the daily life of the subject and a moment in context. Just my perspective.

Nancy did a spectacular job, the kids were adorable, and I think the shoot turned out wonderfully. Here are a few favorites that I grabbed from the day. Like family snapshots, only better!
