Outdoor Fall Family Photos in Chico California

I love this family so much! Stephen and I first met these two while they were engaged and we got to play a role as their wedding photographers a few years ago. Since then, we’ve photographed them several times for important milestones with little Carson. This family is amazing and its always such an honor to have them in front of my camera.

Concord Lifestyle Newborn Photographer - Baby Nikssarian

What a sweet way to celebrate with one of our TréCreative wedding couples. Adam and Kasey welcomed their baby girl Brynn on Easter Sunday. She was their Easter miracle! When we photographed Adam and Kasey’s wedding, many people commented on them being Chico State athletes and teammates on and off the field. I loved watching them interact with Brynn and tag team and help one another out in parenthood. Their teamwork mentality is carrying into parenthood so well and many other aspects of life. They are a great team and I loved watching them care for their baby girl.

The Hearon family of six was such a treat for us to photograph! All the kid’s individual personalities are adorable and Amy and Tim are truly such wonderful parents raising their kids here in Chico. Amy did awesome with planning their family outfits and I love the light and neutral colors she chose for the whole family.

Carmichael Family Photos - Leo Turns One

We remember meeting Leo for the first time. He was the most precious beautiful newborn. Jeremy and Maggie have been huge supporters of our work for years and we are so grateful for them! We first met these two right after they were engaged. We walked with them through that season and had the privilege of being their wedding photographers and videographers. From there, we were honored to capture their maternity, newborn and now Leo’s one year old photos!

Chico Family Lifestyle Photographer - Jarvis Home Family Photos

For family lifestyle sessions, our goal is focus on connection and creating moments that are natural for the families we get to work with. We still will capture a few more traditional smiling “looking at the camera” photos, but that’s not the focus of these sessions. The focus is helping the family forget about the camera and letting candid moments come out. Our homes can be such intimate spaces and it was an honor to be invited into the Jarvis household.

ROCKLIN NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER - BABY LEO

The last time we saw Jeremy and Maggie was at their maternity session a few months back. After delivering their maternity photos, I wrote that the next time we would be seeing these two they would be holding their sweet boy in their arms. What a joy to be a part of the anticipation and life that these two created. Baby Leo is one of the cutest babies ever! After scrolling through the photos, you’ll fall in love like we did!

CHICO LIFESTYLE FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER - JOEY'S 2ND BIRTHDAY

Time can feel like it's flying by, but we're so happy we were able to freeze time for this sweet family. One thing I know for sure is having family photos will remind you of the season you and your family were in. I love getting to capture the busyness and freeze these precious moments for the families we get to work with.

EL DORADO HILLS NEWBORN LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER - BABY MASON

David and Meghan were one of our TréCreative couples several years ago and it was great to see them and catch up. When we announced we were offering lifestyle newborn photos, Meghan was one of the first people to reach out to us. She expressed that her and David were re-doing their room just for family lifestyle photos when Mason arrived. The room was perfect and we're so happy we could make this sweet family's vision come to life.

Cozy Home Newborn Photography Chico Ca - BABY ATALIE

Kyle and Marek have a beautiful home here in Chico filled with personal touches everywhere you look. I love how they have photos throughout every season of their lives displayed on the walls like a walk down memory lane. I can just imagine as their kids grow,  looking at those images as a reminder of the bond their family shares. Family heirlooms in the form of photos are everywhere you look. This is such a powerful representation of the legacy of love we fully believe in when we're working with these sweet families.

CHICO LIFESTYLE FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER - CALVIN

Family lifestyle photos have become sessions I look forward to. People open up their homes to us and we photograph them in the spaces they raise their little ones. Homes come in all shapes and sizes. Decoration styles vary and that's the beauty of shooting in people's home because it has their personal touches everywhere you look.

Jeremy&Maggie are one of our past TréCreative couples who have exciting news. They are expecting their first baby later this summer! The next time we'll see these two, they'll have a sweet baby boy in their arms! Expecting parents always tell us how fast pregnancy flies. They watch as their sweet babies turn into toddlers and continue to grow. With each new season, capturing these precious moments through photography is essential.

BIDWELL PARK MATERNITY SESSION - ABRAHAM FAMILY

Kyle and Marek are one of our past TréCreative couples and got married at one of our favorite venues here in Chico a few years ago. To this day, whenever we think of their wedding day, we always smile. They had some of the most heart felt, emotional speeches we're ever witnessed and probably the best dance moves too. So much so that Kyle ripped his pants at his own wedding. They have so many lifelong friends and that's a testimony of their character and who they are as people. Even after being a part of their amazing wedding day, we've been able to stay in contact with them and run into each other around town occasionally. When Marek reached out expressing they were expecting baby number two, we were thrilled!

NORTHERN CALIFORNIA NEWBORN LIFESTYLE PHOTOS - BABY ABIGAIL

We're honored that Brian and Kaela thought of us for their newborn photos. Our heart's desire is to empower marriages through our photography and after being in the wedding industry for six years, we quickly learned that the legacy we want our images to stand for doesn't just start and end on a wedding day. That's really just the beginning and families and newborns are a part of the amazing legacy that our couples love to capture through photography
