Playing dress up

When deciding on a location, Marjorie suggested we use her new home — she’s renting a room adjacent to a lovely Los Altos home with the most amazing view ever. Meeting at her place was an awesome idea! Not only did we find some gorgeous backdrops, but it gave us the flexibility to have her …

A walk down the street

I’m not a pet person in general. I don’t have any myself, unless you count a pile of plush cuties that neither eat, poop, or require shots. But when this family contacted me about including their sweet lab in their family photos, I was delighted! I can appreciate the role a pooch plays in a …

Baby brother on the way!

I learned a new baby-naming tradition with this cute family, expecting their second cutie! They choose the name based on their Holy Book and the day the baby is born.

He’s 4!

Professional and handsome

I had a lot of fun with Devesh, capturing his good looks and dashing personality for the professional world to see! This engineer needed some up-to-date shots so that he looks his best for the corporate world! We got to explore Downtown San Jose for a different look than the usual “nature”. I love the …

There must be something in the water
