Family Photographer : The San Francisco Sessions

On Kite Hill

The end of the year hurtles towards us while we rewind a bit today.

“San Francisco is poetry. Even the hills rhyme.” ~ Pat Montandon

Back San Francisco way… high on a hill with a stunning view, in an all-time favorite city with a very special family we have this Tokyo grapevine to thank for. Again. And Again. Our second time to photograph them in this, the City by the Bay.

This time in and around their beautiful, designer dream home. Such a warm, happy welcome. Outside & later inside. With that view, just up the path. On Kite Hill. And some quite fabulous gale force wind to contend. A reunion with Tanner, a very favorite canine family member and it was a session to remember. With some lovely & cozy moments indoors at the end, with books and a send off in Dad’s shoes… Time (and that wind) stand still for a while, defiant in the face of the unrelenting pace of life. 6 months on and we are right back in San Fran.
