Sacramento, Roseville Family Photographer| The Ribota Family in Monterey

Lesley and Gil are high school sweethearts.  Their sweet demeanor makes them both instantly likeable.  I met up with Lesley and Gil a while back when I was first testing out my photography skills on people who weren’t my family.  But we kinda go way back… we graduated together from the same high school back in the day and reconnected through FaceBook.   They took me on after seeing some of my photography work and saw my potential… and for that, I am eternally grateful.  Because I am here today, doing what I love…. photographing  fantastic people.   So when Lesley contacted me for another photosession, I was like.. ” OH, HECK YEAH,  let’s do it!”  It was fabulous that the Ribota’s met up with me in Monterey for a beach session.  It was cold and overcast, but it didn’t really stop them (or me) from having some fun. 

Their kids, Brooke, Matthew and Ryan, all are sweet kids.  They truly take the best part of their parents traits and exude it right back out of their bodies.  Really, good parents, make good kids and these guys exemplify that to the nth degree.

 Just look at them… TERRIFIC KIDS!

Here are some images of their session in Monterey… I was kindly told that I don’t show off enough images on my blog (aside from the slideshow)… so I’m happy to oblige with a lot of images…

Seriously Lesley… you’re Hawt!

Love the Heat!

 Monterey was a perfect backdrop for our day…. Thank you Ribota Family… I always have fun with you guys!
