Cates Family Portraits

Thanksgiving weekend felt a bit short this time. Amado and I had something planned
every single day of that four-day weekend. From one family gathering to another.
A night in Hollywood for Amado's school reunion and early Christmas party with friends.
With all of that happening, I was really excited to squeeze in a portrait session with the Cates Family.

I've been planning the session with Analyn for the last couple of weeks. Charles, Analyn and their daughter Logan, oh and I can't forget their dog Jerako recently moved back to Los Angeles.
Ok, a movie title sums up the location. 500 Days of Summer.
Early Sunday morning, we met at Angels Knoll and Disney Concert Hall in Downtown LA for their family portraits.

I had a really great time with the Cates, especially their daughter Logan. The second I picked up my camera, she put on a big smile. A four year old with a natural smile for pictures is always a plus.




I had to make sure we get some of just mom and dad.

My favorite out of the whole set. Don't ask why. Just nod in agreement.
