isabel - t...i'm DYING. these are perfection. i will always continue to be amazed by the way you make things that are mundane and yet meaningful be so vibrant and special. i am sure when they saw these they never imagined how much beauty they lug with them back and forth to the beach each time.

Edie Layland - Love these! So inspiring. Wishing I were you, Tara! Thanks so much for posting these images.

Em @ snowingindoors - So beautiful, this session is breath taking. I can't think of a single family who wouldn't want an evening like this captured. Gorgeous and inspirational, thanks Tara

Tracy - so, so good.

Gail - If California could have the title of State Photographer, I would SO be a champion of you deserving the honor. Love the way you capture the people at home there. Also, I clicked over to their last session and once I saw the quad photos of them walking, I was all, I REMEMBER THEM!!! Your work is so memorable :)

Jennifer - Beautiful family, beautiful shots.

esti - Divine! One of my favorites ever! (And I need info on mom's swimsuit...)

Rebecca - These are just stunning. I can see why you are so very wedded to color. It just suits you perfectly. xxoo

Posy Quarterman - "Pretty Darn Wonderful" is a bit of an understatement, no? Love these so much. That close up b/w of the freckles gave me mama-butterflies-belly. Love love love! xxx PQ

Jaana - the black and white freckles. i mean come. on.

Peta - sometimes when I come here I forget I'm looking at a computer screen at pixels taken with a digital camera, it feels more like I come here and get to borrow your eyeballs for a few minutes. And in this world of over saturation of imagery, that's a pretty cool thing. You're a pretty cool thing x
