Capturing the Treasure: A Family Photo Session in Big Sur { Family Photographer, WINDSOR CA }

Updated: Mar 26

As a photographer, I have always believed that every family is unique and special, and it's my job to capture their essence in a photograph. Recently, I had the pleasure of doing a family photo session in Big Sur, California, which turned out to be one of the most memorable experiences of my life.



The session took place along the cliffs of Big Sur, and it was a windy day. The sun was shining brightly, and the view was simply breathtaking. As soon as I met the family, I could feel the love they had for each other, and I knew that this was going to be a beautiful session.



As we started shooting, I noticed that the family had put a lot of thought into their wardrobe. They looked absolutely stunning, and I knew that the photos were going to turn out amazing. But as the session progressed, I realized that it wasn't just their wardrobe that made the photos so beautiful.



It was their love for each other that made the photos truly special. They were always smiling, hugging, and laughing, and I could feel the warmth and love radiating from them. It was in those moments that I understood the true meaning of the quote, "We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures."


As a photographer, I have the opportunity to capture these precious moments and preserve them forever. It's a job that I take very seriously, and it's something that I feel incredibly privileged to do.


In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life and forget about the things that truly matter. But it's moments like these that remind us of the beauty and wonder of life.

The family photo session in Big Sur was a reminder to me of the importance of family, love, and gratitude. It was a reminder to cherish the moments that we have with the people we love and to be present in those moments.


As I looked through the photos from the session, I felt incredibly grateful for the opportunity to capture such a beautiful family in such a stunning location. And I realized that it's moments like these that make my job as a photographer so rewarding.


So, to all the families out there, I want to remind you of the importance of capturing these precious moments. Whether it's a family photo session or just a candid moment at home, take the time to cherish these moments and be present in them. Because, as the quote says, "We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures."
