Sneak peek at Portrait Classroom app for iPhone - Kim Binfield Photography

It truly is, we promise, getting close now! The iPhone version of our app, Portrait Classroom: Baby and Child Photography Tutorials, is nearing completion.

We're submitting it to Apple this week for approval and then, fingers crossed, once approved it will be available for download on the iTunes app store.

Portrait Classroom for iPhone is very closely based on the successful iPad version. It has all of the same content - the same tutorials, images and text. It is simply configured to fit the iPhone screen. Stay tuned for its debut ... a wealth of insider secrets and training, even more compact and ready to take with you on the go!

mother & baby - Kim Binfield Photography - Marin Family Photographer

A new favorite image from a newborn session this spring. To me, this photo exemplifies the bond between mother and child in a way that words cannot... and so I'll leave no more words and just the photo to enjoy...

Happy Mother's Day to all

Today as we celebrate Mother's Day I am posting a favorite picture of myself and my two daughters. It was taken by my husband when my youngest was four months old. I will always remember her, in part thanks to the moment being documented in this picture, as the sweet little ball of white puff she was that day in that dress and my older daughter at just over two years old with her personality blooming. I delight in being their "Mama", as they call me, and I am growing into my role each day learning more about them and about myself too along the way. Now granted, it's not all easy all the time... thus today we get to take time out and be celebrated ourselves. Enjoy your day of being doted upon!

Newborn Photo Session - Kim Binfield Photography - Larkspur Photographer

Today I'm posting a few of my favorite photos from a recent newborn session. This charming two-week-old boy is already alert and ready for the world! I enjoyed meeting his parents and grandmother and getting to spend time with another newborn baby. So fresh and tiny, always bringing about a sense of calm and wonderment. Thank you for having me share in his first weeks. Here are the pictures:

Displaying family photos - Pottery Barn - Kim Binfield Photography

Looking to frame and display your session photos with style AND ease? Take a peek at Pottery Barn's new "Gallery in a Box." I came across this today while browsing to frame my own family photos and loved it! Choose from white, espresso brown, or black frames to suit your decor. Combine two gallery sets and make a real statement piece. Frame a corner around a breakfast nook or similar cozy corner of your home or arrange like the Pottery Barn photos in this post. The Gallery in a Box sets come with templates to do so!

Baby brother arrives - Larkspur Family Photographer - Kim Binfield Photography

Today's post is Part II after this beautiful maternity session. Mom, Dad and the two brothers are now settling in nicely together as a unit of 4. It is always wonderful to get to meet the new arrival following a maternity session. As always, I thank everyone for allowing me to share their happiness as I document their special moments and family lives.

Three times as nice - Marin Photographer

You might recognize this trio of sisters from their first session with me here. Today's post is from their latest session that was held pre-holidays.









I just love the sweetness of these images and how they will enjoy looking back on these photos when they're all grown up. I also couldn't resist including this photo of their oldest sibling by the blooming November flowers. Thank you again for a lovely morning session!

My app is reviewed on Babyology!

Check out Babyology for a great review of my photography training app for iPad called Portrait Classroom. Their review titled, “Portrait photography is a snap with an iPad app” concludes that the app is “Perfect for parents, amateurs and those wanting to shift their camera out of ‘automatic’ mode and get a little creative. Portrait Classroom will provide you with loads of skills and tips.”

So... if you haven't taken a peek yet get to it or let your iPad loving friends know. We are also anticipating the launch of the iPhone version of the app this month!

Babyology is a blogsite that posts "modern finds for hip kids and parents". Read the full review here.

Family Photo Session - Marin Photographer - Kim Binfield Photography

Another fabulous family and session from the recent holiday season in today's post. These two brothers were both sweethearts though I'm sure they'll have plenty of rough and tumble play ahead of them! We had the good fortune of a sunny and warm day late in the year which made for a great afternoon session in the photos below...
