There are so many amazing locations for family sessions in the Bay Area but there is nothing more intimate than being in your own home.  As a Bay Area family photographer, I find myself on the hunt for new locations each year but being welcomed into a families home, is unmatched.  Home is where love […]

1. Expertise in Mini Sessions I have been photographing families for over eight years now!  Wow!  That’s a long time!  My first year in business is when I started offering Mini Sessions and they became a big hit.  With that being said, I have a weather of knowledge and experience on how to capture a […]

A Magical Evening at Filoli – Historic House & Garden in Woodside, CA So much to love about Filoli Gardens! Every corner you turn, you are being greeted any another magical corner to photograph in! The garden is only half as the old, rustic buildings are another incredible reason to want to have a photo […]

I know I shouldn’t play favorites but I have to say that Mommy & Me Sessions are some of my favorite ever to photograph, ESPECIALLY when the wildflowers are in bloom! In the San Francisco Bay Area the wildflowers usually begin blooming end of February, beginning of March. However this Spring was quite different. I […]

Oh Colette!  Full of spunk, sweetness and the most adorable smile! She has so much personality and you can tell where she gets it from: MOM + DAD! You know those families that are just naturals in front of the camera?  They almost forget you exist and just do their own thing.  This family is […]

Lifestyle sessions.  Something I absolutely LOVE and have a huge passion for! The Wendlings have a stunning home!  I pulled up to an immaculate yard and was greeted at the door by a blond-haired, blue eyed fearless toddler.  A +  M quickly invited me in and instantly made me feel so welcomed.  I typically take a […]

My absolute favorite time of year to be out in the field (pun intended:)) working is SPRING!  The days are getting warmer, the sun begins to set later, and the grass is green and lush.  Mustard fields begin blooming in late February and really make for the perfect location for any type of session.  Shannon’s […]
