Happy 100th Birthday to this wonderful great-grandma! What an honor to photograph four generations of the Kong family in this fun little redwood grove session. Grandmother and grandson. A special bond. One hundred years old, and still so spry! Love. This popped bubble scene was so perfectly lit, it almost looks ai generated, but…
I have been photographing Allie and David for seven years now, for their engagement session, wedding, and their maternity session for little J. I was so delighted to photograph them again, this time as they are expeting baby #2! We enjoyed a very sunny morning at Filoli, wandering the extensive gardens that were in full…
Irene and Martin have been on quite the life adventure in the last couple years. When they first booked me, it was for a multi-day photo session and City Hall wedding, but then life took over and family and personal circumstances meant they had to pivot from their City Hall plans. They were still wed,…
It’s officially been a decade since I started photographing Joyce and Keven for their engagement session. So interesting to think how much life has changed for them since then (a marriage, completely new line of work, and two human beings who didn’t used to exist!). And as always, it’s an incredible honor to chronicle these…
On a map, Sea Ranch doesn’t look all that far from San Francisco. Follow the edge of California northward, and it looks like you could hop right over to this section of the coastline in an hour or two. But of course, it’s actually quite a journey, as you follow the winding roads through valleys…
Welcome to the world, little E! This family has been on quite an adventure in the last few months, preparing for E’s arrival and moving across states and across the Bay, but it’s so wonderful to see everyone here and settling in to their new lives together as a family of four (including Pawblo the…
What an incredible miracle it is that Baby S is now here with us in the world, working her way from someone who didn’t even exist a year ago into whomever she’s going to become one day. And what a joy it is to get to meet her and to see my two good friends…
What a joy to reunite with Cynthia and Carolyn, this time on the East Coast! The Haeler family resides in New York, but all three times I had photographed them so far were in California, as they were here for their engagement, their wedding, and visiting family with little C. This time I got to…
A very happy first birthday to this tiny man! His parents decided to throw him a Costco-themed party to mark this momentous occasion! Hahaha, absolutely delightful. Employee of the month every month, with his little hair net. Attendees filled out a trivia quiz with questions about Costco and about Leo and his parents! The prize:…
E visited Muir Woods with her whole family a while back, and she knew immediately that she wanted to come back and take her high school graduation photos there when the time came. Well, E is graduating next year! So the family made another trip, and we roamed around the ancient redwoods for these portraits,…
What a joy it is to document my dear friends Dan and Jeri as they journey into this next chapter of their lives! We embraced that warm South Bay sunshine for this magical session in the rolling hills of San Jose. I can’t wait to meet baby girl, and you can bet there will be…
It’s such an honor to document the new chapters of my couples’ lives! It has now been a decade since I first photographed mom and dad, and now it’s year two of getting to photograph the little one too. She even insisted on wearing the same dress as last year. This time we were quite…
