A lot of photographers do things like a “Project 365” deal where they attempt to take, edit, and post a photo of their life, every day! This can help keep creative juices flowing. Doing a photo a day is a little ambitious for me, so I am trying a project that’s a little less daunting. …
One-year-olds are so cute! They’re just getting more stable on their feet but there’s still that wobbly cuteness that comes with trying to maneuver different surfaces. I loved getting to watch Ilana figure out the beautiful park we met in. She was hesitant to offer us a smile at first, but once she got going, …
What better way to kick off a brand new year with an awesome photo session?! These two lovely ladies contacted me last fall to do a session in celebration of their one-year anniversary, but I was unfortunately pretty full through Christmas. (Well, not that I’m complaining about the business!) They were gracious and we were …
I love when photographers can be friends and help each other out with photography needs we can’t do ourselves… like portraits of ourselves! I know this lovely photographer from our church, and she almost completely forgot about newborn/family photos since her little guy was born early December. I was glad to help out and grab …
I’ve had a few folks ask about alternate times for my upcoming Valentine’s Mini Sessions, so I have set up a second date to help accommodate your busy schedules! Let me know which 15-minute time-slot works best for you on Saturday February 8 between 9 and 11am! It would help if you let me know …
Christmas is usually a busy season for photographers, but I was so glad to have a some time to capture some memories for this family! Aalya had recently turned 6 months, and what better time to freeze a moment in time?? We explored a new (to me) park in San Jose, and the light was …
This adorable couple met here in California, and discovered that they are both from Hawaii! Despite the cold, we had a wonderful time at Villa Montalvo in Saratoga capturing some precious memories to share with their families. I think all of our fingers and toes were turning blue by the time we were done! I …
When I schedule photography sessions, I usually have no idea what the weather is going to look like for the day of our session, so I pray each time that it is at least not raining! This particular day was sunny, but blustery and cold… at least, cold to this wimpy Texan-turned-Californian. I was so …
One of my favorite parts about spending time with this family is hearing about their really cool family tradition: for every major holiday they dress up and have a photo shoot! They walked up, looking so fancy and put-together for their Christmas photos… I knew we were going to have fun. Having done this many …
I know it’s kind of taboo for photographers to post pictures of their own family, but can you blame an excited auntie for loving her sweet nephew’s smile??? My sister, brother-in-love, and adorable nephew crashed with us for Thanksgiving, and it was a pleasure and delight to capture his one year photos! It was hard …
