allison + keith, sneak peek | modern belly and baby photographer, san francisco

This weekend I was reminded how much I like simple, straight portraits. No fancy angles, clever props or juxtapositions, just pure, simple, straight portraits.

I rarely had to ask them to do anything and shooting in the comfort of their gorgeously lit home made it even easier.
