Scott came to me via a post on the great site, Thrillist. He wanted to do something special on Mother’s Day for his beautiful wife Monique and their kids. And he was savvy enough to buy my package, A Day in the Life. We had a blast. The kids Kaia and Laela are [...]
Laura+Tony were wedding clients of mine, way back in good ole 2003. Wow, has it been that long? They are such a fabulous and adorable couple. Their wedding was beautiful in HOT, HOT Modesto. Laura and Tony now have two gorgeous little girls, Avery and Blaire. They are a riot! I have been dying to [...]
Happy VDay Family!!
I had so much fun with Melody and her gorgeous, adorable daughter. What a beautiful family. Edina’s smile lit up the room and my heart. She was a delight for the entire shoot. I was amazed.
I met Mary Kinney three years ago when she hired me to photograph her family-husband, Jason and their baby daughter Stella. We hit it off from the start. Mary is a magnetic, beautiful, enthusiastic, and a terribly creative soul. We have been collaborating ever since and its always a riot! Mary also styled my shoot [...]
As I mentioned in my past post, it was so fun to pick Susan randomly as the winner of my Rabbit Hole contest as we were schoolmates long ago. For her winning shoot, she brought along her beautiful daughter Melissa and fun-loving boyfriend Tim. Here’s a quick description from Susan of who they are and [...]
I photographed my friends Mindy and Joe, and their beautiful son Karsten, in my final month of pregnancy. The second I walked in the door I could feel this energy, one that would transcend the shoot into a wonderful, natural, and easy experience.It is so amazing to see your friends become parents. And to see [...]
As I sit here this morning bonding with my daughter and enjoying our first “official” day alone together (Harley’s 13th day of life!), its hard not to reflect on the past two weeks and all the amazing people that helped us along on our journey.
On August 6th, Harley’s birthday, I woke up at 2am to [...]
Its always so wonderful to have the Allegra Family back in their hometown for the summer.
Every summer for the last four years, I have photographed Patrick and Lorrie and their growing family. It first started with a pregnancy shoot when Jackson was in Lorrie’s tummy, then we did the three of them, and this year [...]
Not only were we greeted by beautiful smiles, amazing almond pastries baked by Arnold that morning (yum!), but Aidan was so much fun for our photo shoot and the house was a spectacular backdrop for our exquisite and perfect morning together. Being that Arnold is one of the top chefs in SF, we had to [...]
To celebrate the fact that I’m only 6 weeks away from having my baby girl, I am giving away a baby and/ or family photo shoot!
I love capturing these precious little moments and appreciate them now more than I ever have before. It’s a $850 value. All you have to do is post your baby [...]
My dear friends and clients, Sean and Hayley, live in Los Gatos with their precious 14 mo old twins. The family is SO adorable (Grammy Bear, Barrie, on hand to help), I just had to share our second session of photos taken in June. The kids are too fun! Jaz was definitely a performer in [...]
It was so amazing to spend time with our dear friends, Liz and Clint, and their amazing, adorable, and unbelievably lovable boy, Anthony!! Liz is Anna’s (my beautiful bride in NZ!) partner in crime and the wine connoisseur of the wonderful restaurant, South Food and Wine Bar. In addition to being on the gorgeous island of Waiheke in New [...]
A garden setting, was the suggestion of my client Nicole, for my last shoot in March. We picked an amazing spot in Woodside by their home. And of course, it didn’t hurt to have a utterly stunning family as the foreground for this setting. Tara and Reed went wild with the balloons I brought along.
It is such an amazing feeling when someone gives me free license and total creative control with their family to shoot them in the style and with the purpose I see fit for that day. Andrea, a client and dear friend of mine, wrote about my company awhile back in her amazing publication Daily Candy (Andrea [...]
I recently had the pleasure of traveling to Tahoe to photograph one of my favorites families, the Hanleys. Kristina and Donnie, and their adorable daughter, Cate, invited me on a two-day adventure up to the snow to photograph the fam, grandparents, and their two adorable (and WILD) pups!
It was a blast. And we actually got [...]
Mary, Mary, Mary. Always such a blast! And I have to say the girls were amazing. After a full day of scouting for the perfect tree, way above in the Sac hills, we started our shoot at 5pm. I cannot believe the little ones were still up and full of energy. Although, I must admit [...]
The Second Shoot of the day was with my wedding clients from 06, Marisa & Mario, and their new addition Mateo. Mateo is so sweet and smiley. It is so great to share in M&M’s new adventure as parents. They have already settled into the roll so well, total pros.
Love the feet. The men. So [...]
The day after Thanksgiving, on a full belly hangover, I ventured up to Sacramento for three back to back shoots. The shoots were with three of my favorite gals, Brooke, Marisa, and Mary. Three hips moms who make the collaborations fun, creative, and always inspiring!
My first stop, Brooke and her entire family…are they gorgeous or [...]
