1 cold + 2 kids = a little bit o’ grumpiness | Hazel & Felix Sneak Peek | Modern Kids Photographer Oakland

Here’s a quick sneak peek of Hazel + Felix’s session yesterday in Oakland. Unfortunately Hazel had a bit of a cold and was not her normal cheery self. We weren’t able to reschedule because the whole family is packing up and moving to New York next week (Ahh!!), so we made the best of it. Despite the cold and tiny bit o’ grumpiness we got a few gems from the day. Enjoy a sneak peek, more to come soon.

For the photogs out there, I was amazed by the light in the first image. All I did was auto levels, no smoothing, dodging/burning, nothing, no joke. When Hazel put her little head in that sculpture the dark concrete walls created some lovely modeled light. And her skin is just naturally that gorgeous. How cute are these kids? Seriously, cute overload.

Thanks to Mary and Marshall and the kids for a fun shoot! Good luck packing up this week!

Sarah - Thanks so much, Mary & Marshall. I’m so glad you like them! I actually have some smiley ones but was compelled to put the more serious ones up as it reflected Hazel’s mood. I can’t wait to share the rest! Good luck this week!

Marshall - Thank you for the beautiful pictures Sarah! I was particularly amazed at your ability to coax great shots from our grumpy, sleepy, and sneezy girl. These are the best pictures of Hazel and Felix we have. I wish we could meet with you every year as they grow!

Mary Greaney - OMG I can’t believe how gorgeous these are! Not to mention how miraculous given the grumpiness and runny nose factor ;) Thank you, Sarah!!!
