Who says historical sites are just for tourists?

The Warming Hut — historic, unexpected, and one of my favorite hidden spots in all of San Francisco. Same iconic bridge. A completely different side of it. 🌉

Redwoods have the shallowest roots - but they survive by intertwining with each other. 🌿
That’s a family.

Pretty light, tall trees, little humans who won’t be little for long.

No stiff poses. Just real moments that actually look like your life.

If you’ve been putting off booking - let this be your sign. The kids won’t be this age again.
You won’t regret it. Ever. 💕.

How do you get toddlers to cooperate during a session?
Honest answer: you don’t. And you don’t have to. 😄
Here’s what actually happens in a toddler session:

They run - I chase them: They laugh - I catch it They need a snack break - we take one
My job isn’t to control them. It’s to follow them.

You just focus on being present with your kid - tickle them, chase them, be silly with them. I stay out of the way and move fast. The best moments happen when everyone forgets I’m even there.

Kids this age can feel when adults are stressed, so the more relaxed we are, the more they open up. I keep sessions low pressure, no rushing, no forcing smiles.

Most parents come in nervous and leave saying “that was actually so fun.” That’s the goal every single time. 💕

You won’t regret it. Ever.

The best ages for toddler sessions - and why

Ten years behind the lens taught me there are certain ages that just work better. Here’s the breakdown:

18 months to 2 years: The sweet spot. They’re walking, exploring, and their personalities are starting to explode. Not camera-aware yet, which means pure, natural magic. Still cuddly but independent enough to interact - perfection.

2 to 3 years: Activate “Peak Toddler Chaos” (in the best way). They’re talking, running, laughing at everything. This age is SO expressive and real. These sessions always deliver my favorite photos because they’re just so THEM.

3 to 4 years:  More coordinated, less wobbly. But they’re also starting to notice the camera—some ham it up, some get shy. Hit or miss, but when it works? Beautiful. Requires a little more patience from Auntie Tiff and I have plenty of it.

4+  Fully camera-aware. Either they love it or they don’t. That is when bribery comes in to play and I always have a few tricks up my sleeve ;) It takes creativity to get those candid moments but I have had practice…

If your toddler is between 18 months and 3 years, NOW is the time. This window closes fast 💕

Hard truth: One day these photos won’t be extra - they’ll be essential.
The kids will grow. The house will change. But these? These stay forever.
