Bidwell Park is so beautiful this time of year. There are little patches of wildflowers everywhere you turn and the creek is full and flowing. Nature at it’s finest. But all of that pales in comparison to Lexi, my most recent senior girl session. When Lexi arrived at our location in Upper Park, I knew […]

I’ve been talking to Sherry Swartz of Classic Blinds and Design for quite some time now. We were introduced by Sherry’s web designer and we were finally able to connect at one of her newest projects – a huge Mediterranean-style home with an insanely grand entrance, tall ceilings throughout, a huge kitchen, five bedrooms, and […]

Meet Zanna Fuller of Zanna Fuller Design! I’ve often said that the best part about my job as an interior design photographer is getting to meet the awesome designers behind each space and I truly mean it. Last month, I was lucky enough to meet Zanna, an experienced designer with a great eye. She is […]

Imagine being an 18-year-old freshman in college going out for the water polo team. It’s pretty intimidating. Now imagine walking up to the pool deck and being greeted by the biggest, most welcoming smile. She was an experienced player in her senior year, team captain, and the nicest person – thank goodness for Melody! All […]

I met Annabelle almost two years ago when I was interviewing babysitters to help with my two kiddos. She was so sweet and kind, I knew she would be great with the kids. She worked for us while she was earning her degree at Chico State. Now, she’s a graduate working in the big city […]

She’s a hard worker too. Ever since she was 15, she has been working at our favorite steakhouse, 5th Street Steakhouse, […]

My wonderful client/neighbor/friend, Marci, of Marci Goulart Interior Design, recently completed a gorgeous, light-filled master bedroom and bathroom remodel and I’m in LOVE.  Her clients live on a vineyard in a craftsman style home that was built in 1918. The master suite may have had a few updates over time, but the dark and outdated […]

How sweet are those names? Ziggy and Maya. They’re the cutest brother and sister, and our good friends’ sweet babies. I can’t tell you how cute they are in person, although, you can obviously see below. Most photo sessions with three month olds with older siblings don’t go very smooth but this one was cake. […]

I’ve made a huge deal out of this. I’ve posted on instagram about it. I’ve done multiple stories leading up to it. I’ve laid awake at night thinking about what chair would be best? What lamp? What rug? I’ve talked to friends. I’ve walked through Ikea with two kids for 3.5 hours (only to find […]

The Lifetime show, Designing Spaces, recently made it’s way to Chico to film an episode of a beautiful kitchen remodel by designer Lauren O’Donnell, in collaboration with Build.com. I got to be there on the final shoot day, which featured the reveal and home owner and designer interviews – what a fun experience! Here are […]
