This the season for family photos, and we had the most fun doing tree farm minis at the Christmas Tree Farm in Sebastopol! We had such a nice group of families this year and Garlock Tree Farm in Sebastopol was the perfect backdrop! Tree farm minis are the perfect option for the family who just wants a few good photos for their holiday card.

Fields of lush yellow flowers signal one thing in Sonoma County, winter is on the way out and Spring is around the corner! Mustard is actually a super invasive non native plant to this area. It was brought to California by the Spanish, and it is very hard to get rid of. It does especially well in areas that are damaged or disturbed, like fire zones or land dug up for farms and roads. Ecology aside, the sweeping fields of yellow mustard flowers will forever epitomize Sonoma County in my heart.
This winter I had a mom reach out to me saying that her favorite color is yellow, and she always wanted photos in these flowers with her children. We headed over to The Happy Dahlia Farm, which plants mustard as a cover crop in the winter, to have a sun drenched yellow adventure with her girls.
As Moms we are so often behind the camera, capturing memories for our families. I am here to tell you it is SO important to have photos with you in them! Photos that. you love, and maybe not just the random cell phone snaps or selfies. I make a point to have photos taken of my family every year, and the number one request I have for our photographer is please capture me with my kids! I hope that you do the same, and if you would like to schedule a family or mommy and me portrait session in the flowers please contact me here! We have more flower coming throughout the summer. Lavender in June and July, Dahlias in August and September!
I can’t wait to celebrate all you Moms out there and the love you have for your families! Remember to show up in the photos the way you show up in their lives. XO
One upon a time there were two adorable little sprites who came to play with me in the woods of Sebastopol. We had so much fun adventuring through Ragle Park while capturing their magic. Fairy photo sessions will forever be one of my absolute favorites. The magic and wonder in the children’s eyes is everything.
When booking a fairy photo session with Angelika Mitchell Photography all the wardrobe and prop rentals are included in your session fee. We have so many choices of fairy dresses in all sizes, and our wings are custom made in Canada out of the most beautiful iridescent film. We have many choices for the wings in different shapes and sizes, and plenty for matching sibling sets! We have another artist who makes all of our flower crowns and headbands. We also have a swing made of flowers which is always so much fun for the kiddos to swing on. Are you looking for more information on a fairy storybook photo session for your children?

There are some photo shoots that just end up being so much fun! When one of my favorite clients asked me to shoot some photos of her son’s soccer team for social media, I was a little unsure. I do a lot of photo shoots of children, but I have never really done any sports photography. They really wanted photos of the team with the Golden Gate Bridge in the background. As fabulous as the bridge is, it can be hard to shoot depending on which direction you come from. We chose Sausalito as the perfect location and prayed for good weather. You see, this shoot was scheduled in the middle of weeks of rain. The weather gods smiled on us, and this was the only clear afternoon that entire week!
Now this mighty team has dozens of fun photos for content for their social media campaigns. Their instagram has photos for weeks, and we even made a Reel for them. Are you ready for a branding and content session of your own? Contact us here for your free consultation. We can brainstorm together what your needs are, map a blueprint for your content for several months and even design and create reels/ tiktok content for you!

There is this magical spot in Sonoma County where you are blessed with the most gorgeous sunset in all the land. This spot is perched above the Petaluma Valley, so you get to watch the sun drop down bathing the valley in the most beautiful golden light. I absolutely love this park for family photos. In the fall you have the most beautiful palate of wheat and lichen colors. In the spring the park is bursting with all the shades of green mother nature has to offer.
This gorgeous family chose the magical sunset for the backdrop of their family photos this year and I just love the way they turned out! Their last family photos session was in Napa Valley at a winery, which is another favorite spot of mine.
These gorgeous oak tress are dripping in lichen all year long. I love the way the light hits the tress perfectly bathing the family in the golden glow we all look for in sunset family photos.
