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 […]

Taking senior portraits of Anna was so much fun. We know her family and actually purchased our home from them a little over two years ago. Anna has always been such a delightful person. She’s a hard worker too. Ever since she was 15, she has been working at our favorite steakhouse, 5th Street Steakhouse, […]

I love first birthday shoots. Mostly because ages 6 months to 1.5 years old is my favorite time to watch these tiny humans grow. They learn so so much in this time – they walk, talk, dance, gain so much personality, interact with you constantly, learn to voice their opinions, I could go on… This […]

Sometimes I shoot from home. Especially if it’s a styled food shoot since most of my props and equipment are here at home. The other day while shooting for a client, I was finishing up and the kids hopped on to my set. They had a bowl of grapes, and the grapes plus their sweet […]

It was the perfect day for pictures…said none of us, as the day was shaping up to rain. Lowren, the beautiful pregnant momma below, and I texted back and forth about the rainy forecast and cloudy skies. We ultimately decided to chance it, and we were so happy we did. The rain clouds created two […]

As soon as Ellery, age 2, introduced herself, I knew this was going to be a great Table Mountain sunset session. She was outgoing, sassy, full of energy and so so sweet. Her mom, Samantha – a talented fellow photographer, had booked the session for her and her two children as a Mother’s Day present […]

It’s crazy how busy life gets after kids. There’s school, sports, dance classes, kids’ friends, playdates, etc. And if you have friends with kids that are even slightly older or younger than yours, then you can bet that their activities and schedules are completely different from yours. All this to say, it’s really hard to […]

Over the past year, I’ve consciously shifted my photography business from portrait photography over to almost all interiors photography. That’s not to say I don’t still love doing portrait sessions, it’s just not my main focus right now. But this time of year, the blossoms are insanely beautiful so I wanted to keep my schedule […]

Since February is known as the month the love, it seems fitting to be posting about this adorable couple. Mike and Kaylee’s engagement session in Upper Bidwell Park was perfect. It was the first beautiful day we had seen in quite a few weeks and when they showed up, they were dressed perfectly for the […]
