Weddingswhen katie contacted us to take some candid shots of her two boys at the park we were thrilled. these are the shoots we love the most, the opportunity to capture children running and playing, being silly or serious, and just being themselves. children grow up so fast and we tend to forget what they were like as children. it's great to be able to get snapshots of their personalities.
without further ado, may i present to you the beautiful zack family. meet chris, katie, ethan, and owen.
ethan was down to earth, very sweet and informative, explaining the play structures and the finer points of firefighting.
owen was a total daredevil, exploring every inch of the play structures high and low.
here ethan wanted a picture with an ant. april obliged. these kids are too cute!
i absolutely love this sequence. you could see the love owen and ethan have for their grandpa peter as they ran up to give him hug after hug. if you'd met him you'd know that he is an awesome grandad, sweet, funny, and not to mention full of energy.
thank you katie, chris, peter, owen, and ethan! we thouroughly enjoyed spending time with your ohana and we wish you guys many blessings!

Oh they are so cute! I emphatically agree children should be photographed in their element!
I absolutley love the Grandpa sequence, the 3rd shot and the shots of that little guy putting his face in the roller thingy is hilarious and so fun!
These are my favorite types of shoot's too! I love shooting kids in their own environment!! these are awesome!!
There is a lot of joy in these photographs. I love going to the park for shoots too, there is just something about the look of a kiddo's face as they are flying across a playground.
I love the interactions you captured with the dad helping his son across the monkey bars and the Grampa set is priceless!
I really love the 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 6th pics of the boys too!
So much fun! I love photographing children in their element. Great work!
You guys really are rockstars with the families!
{and the weddings, and the couples, and the ....okay you get it.)
I envy the fact that you say you get thrilled when people contact you to capture their children running around.
I, on the other-hand, fear for my life.
I had a 4 yr old bite my arm so hard during christmas season last year cause i wouldn't give him my camera. He almost got beat by the photographer.
I love these because they are so natural. No set ups, no poses. Just kids being kids. Awesome!
I love that one with the water fountain. So cute!
