When you walk up to a pack of boys with a camera you aren’t exactly the most popular person around. They would rather be in chemistry or mowing the lawn. I let them know right away that I knew they hated this, but that I was going to make it as easy as possible for them. Pretty sure the s’mores sealed the deal. Loved their boy energy.

- love the feel and color of these photos. you can almost feel the crisp cold air and the wind on your skin...
- Once again...so perfect. Sooooo California. I swear, families in your state are some of the most freakin' beautiful people on the planet. PS - And yeah for a mama of boys!!! PPS - Are they SERIOUSLY old enough to have near-teenage kiddos? haha They sure don't look it!
- I've loved looking at the sessions you've been posting lately!! This set is particularly amazing to me. I'm a sucker for your beach shots. The mom & dad look like teenagers in the awesomely blurred shot. Such beautiful captures.
- Love this session and the mom is just beautiful!
- I have all boys too, and I just loved seeing this family. Gorgeous people!
- Oh Tara you keep doing it over and over again. Wow.
- I wish I lived in CA. I want this.
- Those boys are the cutest thing. I love that not every photo is posed. I love that they look like they are having fun.
- Sometimes when I look at your work I just want to cry. Family is everything.
- We have four boys and you are so right about not being popular with the camera :) I have to say mine have all finally realized the sooner I'm happy the sooner we get ice cream and to go home :)
- oh tara! it's sessions like this one that makes me want my Stevie-girl to get a little older {she's 2}...and we pack up in a camper and head over for you to photograph our little family of 3. amazing work. this NC mom is lovin' this session big time!
- i love your work all the time;)...but lately? your b/w images? incredible.
- I love your pictures. I always will.
- I love, love the sun drenched shots of the whole family on the beach. Such a cool shot, T.
- What a gorgeous family! You captured them in the most perfect way possible!
- I love how you talk about making the boys feel comfortable. I have 4 boys of my own and know they wouldn't be happy with the whole "smile" think for even a minute! But it looks like you were able to capture them just as they are! Boy energy, indeed!
