Tucked away in the heart of Menlo Park, the Allied Arts Guild is a a place where old-world charm meets lush gardens and beautiful Spanish-style architecture. It offers a magical, intimate setting with winding pathways, vibrant flowers, and gorgeous archways that add a timeless touch to photos. The soft golden light filtering through the trees, the warm hues of the historic buildings, and the peaceful, artistic atmosphere created the perfect backdrop for a mix of classic portraits and candid family moments.
We started the session in the courtyard, where the charming archways and climbing vines framed the family beautifully. Then, we wandered through the garden paths, capturing playful interactions, warm embraces, and those in-between moments of laughter and love.
One of the things I love most about family photography is capturing the unique bond and personality of each family. Whether it’s a giggle or a loving glance between parents, it’s these little details that make each session so special.
Family photos are more than just pictures—they’re memories that tell your family’s unique story. Whether you're celebrating a special milestone or simply want to freeze this beautiful moment in time, I’d love to help you create images that you’ll cherish for years to come.
