You might remember one of my favorite belly sessions this summer, Cynthia, two year old Chloe, and Mike in the Mission. We walked down Clarion Alley, then to Bi-Rite for some yummy ice cream, then ended our session in Dolores Park. You can see that shoot by clicking here. I was so delighted when Cynthia...
