Family Photographer in Palo Alto
Palo Alto families have the best of both worlds: Stanford's sandstone arches a few minutes one way, and 1,400 acres of oak woodland at Foothills Nature Preserve the other. I shoot both, plus the Baylands when families want that wide, open-marsh feel. I handle the campus logistics so you don't have to think about permits or parking.

Foothills Nature Preserve
Open meadows and a quiet lake — versatile light for families any season.
Stanford University
Main Quad, Palm Drive, and the sculpture garden for an iconic Palo Alto frame.
Baylands Nature Preserve
Wide marsh and boardwalks at sunset for a clean, expansive backdrop.
