Absolutely Marvelous Madison!

Talk about beautiful! It's been so fun to watch this little girl grow up and see how wonderful parents her mom and dad are. This little family is so full of love and obviously really enjoy just being around each other...I love getting to photograph them! When I first got there, Madison looked right into the camera and started posing! Her mom and I were cracking up as she turn her precious face to give me different angles. Where do they learn this stuff?!? :) She also showed off her great commando crawl/scoot....I love this stage! She was so fast, she crawled right out of her pants..watch for the serious in the show, it's hilarious ;) I always have such a great time with this family and can't wait until the next time!

He's Here!

Little Carter's parents have been waiting for him for a quite awhile...and he was well worth the wait! His mom was so excited when she found out she was pregnant, that I think she booked me before she even told her husband ;) Okay, probably not but she did email me about 8 months ago to make sure I was available to do his newborn portraits. I was so excited to finally get to meet and hold the little guy. He's absolutely precious! I love spending time with families right after their baby gets here...there's so much excitement, exhaustion and emotion. It's such a special time and I so appreciate being a part of it. Thank you for letting me photograph your gorgeous little man and I hope you enjoy your show! To view larger, click HERE

Super Cute Jacob!

This family was so great to work with! Little Jacob was so busy! He had just gotten a great little sandbox and was hilarious in it. He was so serious and definitely had to get his sand work done :) I had such a great time with these guys and Jacob was such an adorable subject! To enjoy the show larger, click HERE

Ridiculously Loveable Ryan!

I'm so happy that I get to work with this family! I met them when Jennifer was pregnant and have loved watching little Ryan grow up. They're such a sweet and loving family and I always have such a great time working with them. I can't stop looking at little Ryan's portraits...he seriously has the sweetest face and most endearing eyes ever...not to mention the cheeks. They don't come much cuter!

Gotta Love West County!

This absolutely wonderful couple was married last year in Southern California. They still live there but decided that we have such a beautiful area, they wanted to come up here, get all dressed up again and take some portraits! I was lucky enough to be the photographer they hired. We started in Sebastopol and drove slowly out to the coast, stopping at any cool spot we saw. We braved traffic, annoying drunk guys, property owners (No Trespassing signs were totally ignored) and brutal Bodega Head winds but we captured some beautiful images and created some great memories. I can't thank Trish and Mark enough for letting me photograph them and I can't wait to go to LA and do it all over again! To enjoy the show larger, click HERE

Beautiful Head Shots

I was asked again to do some "edgier" head shots...images that actually represent the real person in their real environment...no silly backgrounds and studio flashes that look like your formal senior portraits. I think professional marketing head shots are really starting to go in this direction and I'm stoked because they're a lot more interesting to do and look at. We didn't get too crazy (they still need to be professional) but we did have a good time. Christine is such a beautiful woman and had an office with great light so my job was super easy.

Handsome Mateo!

Not only do I love this kid because of his name (one of my favorites) but he was so excited to be at this new park that he made the session so much fun! It's a good thing I wore my sneakers because this little guy had me running! It was so funny trying to corral him for a couple shots with his mom. They obviously have a very close and special bond but most of the time, this guy just wanted to run and check out all the new stuff. To enjoy the show larger, click HERE
