Ah, parenthood!

That wonderful relationship of joys and challenges, the small moments that add up and pass all too quickly.

Here is a selection of local photos celebrating some of those moments for this year's Mother's Day and Father's Day.

Many of these images are also on display as an outdoors show sponsored by the Los Altos Public Arts Commission in downtown Los Altos in May and June 2023.  

Enjoy!

More Details
 

These photos were taken in Los Altos, Los Altos Hills, and Mountain View.  They cover Pet Parades, Easter Egg Hunts, History Museum festivities, Downtown Strolls and many other local events between 2016 and 2022.  These events offer excellent photo opportunities from which I have chosen a few faces of the relationship between parent and child.

If I managed to capture your image, please feel free to download a full size copy for yourself.  I would love to meet you and give you the physical print after the downtown show closes at the end of June - please contact me.

As they say about raising children, "it takes a village".  This show would not have been possible without the help of:

  • The event organizers, especially the Los Altos History Museum, and the many happy participants
  • The Los Altos Public Arts Commission which sponsored the physical show downtown
  • The Los Altos Town Crier for suggesting many of the photo-ops and helping to promote the show
  • The Los Altos City Maintenance crews for the lovely planters downtown and supporting the installation
  • Eliza and the enthusiastic moms during a particularly challenging moment.
  • James, who initiated the show.

Thank you, Los Altos!
