True Religion, New Love - Novato Photographer

Meet Maddie and Jason! Jason is my husband's longest friend since elementary school and Maddie is his spunky and adorable girlfriend. They share a brand new love that is growing with each passing day. Coming up on 8 months together as a couple and already have so many little details that are important to them.

The first detail I knew about going into this shoot was that they planned their outfits carefully and decided to wear the same brand jeans...True Religion jeans. How cute is that?!

However, a more important detail was that one of the locations for this session had to be where they met. At the Marin Golf and Country Club. Lovely location! After that we made our way out to the Cheese Factory. Not for the cheese, though I would have been a super happy camper; I love cheese! There are some fun and beautiful photo ops there.

Maddie and Jason, thank you so much for asking me to take some special photographs of you this weekend. We almost missed the opportunity due to rain but we got lucky!! See you two soon!

Where they met...

It isn't Shannon Purcell Photography without a shot like this ;)

Big Family Love - Santa Rosa Family Photographer

Wow, so what can I say about this family? Sean, Tracey, Sebastian, Sabrina, Zavier and Isabella...an absolutely beautiful family that I had the opportunity to spend just a couple of hours with and I feel like I know so much about them. They all have unique and fascinating personalities.

The weather could not have been more perfect for this photo session and Tracey could not have picked a more beautiful setting to show off her family.

I had never been to Juilliard Park in Santa Rosa but I know for sure I will be back and I hope one day to be back with this family. I was witness to a beautiful bond between the parents and their children as well as a heart warming relationship amongst all of the children.

Isabella is the youngest of them all and her older brothers and sister clearly adore her. How could you not?? She's too cute for words!! However, all of the children were so much fun to photograph.

Tracey and Sean, thank you so very very much for letting me spend the afternoon with you and your amazing family. I had the most wonderful time and will never forget it.

Here is a preview of their beautiful photos. For more, be sure to visit me on my Facebook page and my website.

So Much Fun - Marin County Photographer

Today I met up with Lori and her college age kids, Steven and Samantha. Wow, Lori has so much to be thankful for with Steven and Samantha. They are both beautiful, ambitious and so loving. Their love for their mother and each other just radiated off of them all day.

I had the pleasure of going to multiple locations with them in the San Geronimo and West Marin. We encountered some pesky wind but we found a way to work with it and still get some fantastic photographs for them cherish.

My drive to meet them was amazing with all of fall's amazing colors displayed itself in the tree lined roads. It made me thankful that I live in such a beautiful area and that I get the opportunity to spend some time with amazing people at each and every photo shoot and get to know them just a little bit more.

Lori, Steven and Samantha, thank you so very much for letting me spend time with you in a gorgeous area and capture your beautiful smiles.

I hope everyone reading this had a memorable and wonderful Thanksgiving. Happy Holidays!
