Magical light + family love in a Redwood Forest.
🌲✨💕

If you book a session with me then decide on your location and I recommend a slight adjustment to our start time in order to maximize our chances for exceptional light, please just know I’ve done my location research... I even have a spreadsheet on it (and I really am not a spreadsheet person, but I am an epic light seeker).

So glad we adjusted our start time and were able to witness the magic between your sweet family and all around us Lindsay Nakaki !

Film dump 🎞️

I’ve photographed personal work almost exclusively on film this past year and it’s like reconnecting with a long lost love. I began photography on film cameras, but switched over to digital in the early 2000s. Twenty years later I’m finding my way back and I love how differently I shoot when film is loaded in my camera. It’s an even deeper act of presence and intention. It also means there is a long delay to getting to see what I create which I find both challenging and cool.

I’m packing up several rolls I’ve taken over the last many months 🙈 to send off to the lab for development, but thought I’d share some photos I loved from my last rolls.

One month ago Portland Family Photographer Photos and Films and I wrapped up our 4th annual Finding he[ART] workshop] workshop 🫶✨📸

There is so much I love about our workshop weekends, but one of the very best things is getting to know 10 other photographers. We designed our workshop to be small and intimate and that is exactly how they feel. Some of the most memorable moments are when the gathering of creative energy sparks a co-creative fuel 🔥

Komorebi is a Japanese word that describes the interplay between light and shadows created by filtered light through the leaves of trees.

On the last afternoon of the workshop, an experience of komrebi at our retreat center set one of those creative sparks in motion and it was so fun to have a current of creativity move through a whole group.

I loved getting to meet, know and see each of you in your creative magic Marin County, San Francisco & Bay Area Photographer Kristin C Bryn 👋 Elizabeth Photomares Photography SeeYou Photography by Chloe A M Y M A D S O N Anastasia Annie Mangelson Jennie Hong Cao Little Stories by Rosie
