a mom who let me come over to her house! i am feeling a bit stale at the beach, so this was very fun.
great kids, super nice parents. thanks lisa!
here are a few of my favorites:
i had several moments during this shoot where the good magic would happen. where as i pushed the shutter, i knew that i was getting magic from these people and these kids. i love when that happens.
I was just looking at an older post of your from a few days ago, refreshed, and saw this new post. Beautiful photos, as always tara!
Awwwww…these are soooo sweet Tara! Love little Allison sitting at her sweet lil table. thanks for sharing :)
I bow to the don’t give in to temptation – your home is going to be just great goddess! As much as I love the shots you’ve taken at the beach – I love my family, in our place where all the magic happens. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
wonderful as always. i like the “at home” shoot.
OMGosh! Tara! The ones with the kids in the foreground and the parents in the background. WOW! Love those. So stinkin’ cute. :-)
Wanna do our wedding pics? :O
Tara—these are awesome. Everyday I become more inspired and so want my family/children’s pics taken. How far is Sacramento from you? lol

I am so impressed that you can take pictures ANYWHERE. Wonderful pictures! Wish you lived near me.
Love the new photos! Especially Allison with her pillow and the last one with the two kiddos hugging! Too cute, Tara!
i love to feel the magic…doesn’t happen so often for me! Now I must get a yummy chocolate leather chair to put in front of my house and take pictures…that sure is an expensive prop, LOL!
LOVE the one with the KIDS hugging, and the parents, blurred in the background, playing!!! Cute take on your awesome standard!

Amazing photography, every single time Tara!! Do you *ever* take a bad picture? I think NOT! Cute family and I love the at home setting.
Love the shots.
You are so nice to share your talent and photog tips. Thank you!!!

You certainly captured the family and their life – love the house shots!!!! The chair in the yard… must try that…

Your pictures are so incredibly beautiful. I just finished taking a Digital Photography class – our last assignment was “Taking Pictures of People” and I sure was trying to take them a la Tara Whitney, lol. I think I got a good one of my husband that was very Tara-ish. :O)
Once we have kids we’ll have to plan a cross-country trip or fly you to Florida to get our pictures taken!
awesome again…thanks for sharing your work. :)
I think this session is one of my all-time favorites of yours. They are gorgeous! Looks like they belong in a family catlog/magazine or something. :o)
very nice shoot.
Love the kids in the front with parents in the background– that’s awesome!!!! Thanks for sharing!
Totally gorgeous! Exactly what I’d want to capture for my family…..if only you weren’t 3000 miles away…sigh…..
So, so, so wonderful-icious!!! Ohmygosh! My fingers are getting all tingly…
