A happy and proud family enjoying a late afternoon to evening in their California residential backyard patio. The scene features a married couple in their mid-30s to 40s, along with their two young children, all laughing and enjoying time together around a small bonfire. The backyard is well-maintained, with comfortable seating and a cozy atmosphere. The setting includes soft, warm lighting as the sun begins to set, creating a welcoming and serene environment. The image should capture the joy and togetherness of the family, with the focus on their happy expressions and interactions. The photo should be taken by an award-winning residential architecture photographer.  --style raw --ar 16:9
