Being a bay area high school senior session photographer, photographing repeat clients is one of my favorite things. Samantha’s fantastic family has been in front of my camera before. As has her talented sister Kira when we shot a few of her album covers. So I was thrilled when Sam asked me to photographer her …
As a Bay Area Senior Photographer, I get the chance to photograph an important milestone. That short window of time before teenagers leave the safety and comfort of home to become independent, honest-to-goodness adults is priceless. Many times these photographs are the last that will be taken of just them until their wedding or until …
Life is unpredictable. Just when you think you’ve got it all figured out, you realize that you really don’t know much of anything. At least it seems that way at times. I’m a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (LDS), or what most people refer to as a Mormon. I was …
We rolled our anniversary, Christmas and birthdays into one trip this year. Paris is somewhere I’ve always wanted to go. I was slammed with work up until we left so I didn’t do much planning at all and didn’t have any expectations. I was surprised to find myself falling a little in love with Paris! There are …
As a newborn photographer, photographing a newborn at home with the family is an honor. The newborn stage is fleetingly fast. They change from a delicate newborn covered in downy fuzz to a roly poly baby in the blink of an eye and if you’re the parents or the siblings, you don’t want to miss a moment. …
I always feel so honored when a client invites me into their home for a session. There is no more unique place to document family life than at your very own home. The stories and memories and experiences that reside at home are unique to you and an important part of your family history. No other …
It may be rather pedestrian, but my interest in photography began when my kids were little (4, 7, 10, & 13). And cute. And not at all camera averse. To be precise, it began not too long after I started this blog (2008). We were living away from family and friends and I wanted to …
One of my favorite things about living where I do is the fact that the beach is just an hour away. My family’s favorite beach is in Half Moon Bay. We bring the dog and spend the day at the beach several times a year. I can count on my left hand how many times we’ve seen …

Fall means Mini Sessions for me. Every year I offer quick sessions for people wanting to update their family photos but don’t need a full session. I open these up to my current client list first (With a little incentive thrown in .. shhhhh … don’t tell) and they almost always sell out before I have …

Beautiful Interiors are my favorite. I could tour open houses all day. I have a stash of home magazines on my night stand at all times. If I weren’t a photographer, I’d be feeding my obsession one way or another. So when I have the chance to merge photography and beautiful interiors, I’m totally giddy. This …

The drought in California is getting old. As an Alamo CA Photographer, this is a little worrisome. A little rain would be incredible. I hear talk of an El Nino winter. That would be welcomed on so many fronts. In the meantime, we are surrounded by a desperately parched environment. Despite all of that, my …

As a bay area newborn photographer, I love meeting newborns at their homes. Can you think of a more unique and comfortable place for documenting a baby in their first few days? George’s session was no exception. Doesn’t he have the best name?! And the sweetest parents. This little guy is going to be spoiled for …
