park outing and play -- Kim Binfield Photography -- Mill Valley Family Photographer

A little morning play and park time ...

i love hand holding photos!! such a sweet connection and those tiny hands get big before we know it ... my youngest is almost six and I can still feel a teeny bit of baby hands when holding her hand but not for much longer I sadly know. i saw a quote recently "give them roots and wings" i like that very much.

Here are my favorites from this session ... In addition the hand holding, I love his aspiring look and beautiful, deep blue eyes in the color image.

Summer is here! Capture the fun in a mini or full session - parks, redwoods, grassy hills, your home... let's talk!

Maternity Photo Session -- Kim Binfield Photograhy -- San Francisco and Marin Maternity Photographer

A little pre-Mothers Day post this morning of a recent maternity session. This mom is a friend of mine from high school that I was so happy to connect with and meet up in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park for her maternity photos. She is a scientist and will also be a very special mom to one lucky little girl who was born just over a week ago now. Enjoy those baby cuddles, the waiting is over!

sisters and polka dots -- Kim Binfield Photography -- Marin Family Photographer

Lots of fun at this late afternoon session with these two sisters for holiday photos last year. I have photographed this family through the years before little sister came on the scene. It's wonderful watching families grow and getting to create memories for them. These two sisters are about three years apart and little sister enjoyed passing out pretend treats to her big sister and being in charge!

1 year old photo session -- Kim Binfield Photography -- San Francisco and Marin Family Photographer

1 year old and super adorable. Here are my favorite images from this afternoon family photo session last year. Look for new posts over the coming weeks... I'll be sharing session favorites from 2013 as we start into 2014!

Hoping 2014 is off to a good start for everyone! Time to refresh and settle in after the holidays. I'm enjoying the time to get a bit more organized on the home and work front and to also be with my girls as they take on gymnastics, ballet, more and more reading and coming up with cute and funny things to make me smile (most of the time of course!)  ~ Kim

Holiday cards, thanks and wishes -- Kim Binfield Photography

A note tonight to thank my lovely clients and everyone who supports me in getting to be creative and make memories for families. I have enjoyed seeing all of the holiday cards this year and my girls have enjoyed taking turns opening them - mostly without fighting ;)  The ones from my clients are especially heartwarming and fun to be a part of and to you again I say Thank You!!

Here's part of our card for this year. I had it printed at my lab on my favorite pearl paper and it turned out even dreamier than I'd hoped. A thank you to my girls also for putting up with having a photographer for a Mom.

As the year closes out, I wish everyone a very happy holiday. Cuddle up with those little ones!

Big Brother and Little Brother -- Kim Binfield Photography -- San Anselmo, Ross, Kentfield Family Photographer

Boys will be boys and brothers will be brothers! I got to spend an afternoon with these two cuties for their recent photo session. As a mom of two girls, I am used to a different sort of energy and I enjoyed hanging out with this Mom and her two beautiful boys. They are all in for fun and adventure. I loved being able to capture their connections and play.
