It was such an honor to capture these sweet family photos by the oak trees near Westlake Village recently.
Matt and Jen moved from New York to California just a few months ago and are very excited for this new chapter in their lives. They are both doctors and met in training 12-13 years ago. They got married in Malibu 3.5 years ago and fell in love with the area. This is how they discovered Westlake Village. I absolutely agree: it’s so beautiful here! Both Jen and Matt love working out, art, and wine.
They recently welcomed the cutest baby boy Hudson into their lives. He is 14 months old here. Such an adorable age, isn’t it? Hudson loves music and animals and laughs every time he sees them =)
As it’s their first family photo shoot, they really wanted to capture all the love they share as a family of 3 and celebrate their arrival in California. Welcome to the sunshine state, dear Jen and Matt! I hope this new adventure brings you lots of joy. Cheers to these memories and many more to come!
