I was so thrilled when Terri’s parents called me for a second photo session with their handsome little boy! I first met them about 2 years ago, and we had a wonderful session in the studio, but this time they wanted to update their family photos and explore the great outdoors… so we headed to a place that none of us had ever visited before: the Steele Canyon Bridge, out in in Spring Valley! I love finding new “spots” for photo sessions, and this is definitely one for the books! The bridge is absolutely huge, with plenty of room to run back & forth, and we started our session with some adorable family photos that’ll be perfect for their Christmas cards. Then we explored the surrounding area, and found more cute spots nearby too! Terri’s favorite part of the session was either the treats or the flies, I’m not sure… but he enjoyed eating both of them, haha! :)

This speed demon is Terri! Can you believe how fast he runs for a 9-year-old? He still has plenty of puppy-like energy, and I loved watching him run back & forth between his mom & dad.

We found a few secret, hidden trails in the nearby park area…

… and Terri even tried climbing a tree! Turns out he’s half Yorkie, half monkey. Who knew? :)

Katrina & John, it was SO great to catch up with you two! (And thank you for the fabulous idea of meeting at the Steele Canyon Bridge!) I’m excited to share the rest of our images with you soon! :)
