Also, special thanks go out to Shannon Elder, Kristy Hardy, Martha Wood, and especially my associate photographer, Amy Shat of Oaks and Acorns Photography, who all made the day run smooth as silk, and I am very grateful!!!

Environmental Children's Portraits – Joshblog

Filed under Environmental, Josh, San Francisco Zoo • Written by millcottage @ 5:56 pm


Since so many of my friends and family follow my blog to get updates on the Josh-meister, I do feel the need to post lots of images of him, especially since at this age, he seems to be changing so much every week! On Friday when Jill and I took our photo safari in the zoo, we came across this field of dandelions, and gasped. We gasped again as we saw this adorable blonde little girl go skipping through it in a cute dress and the most darling brown suede Uggs… I skipped myself over to her momma, handed her a card so she wouldn’t think I was some kind of weirdo, and asked if we could take her picture. We got some cute stuff which I’ll share after I get permission from momma to post them here. I kept wishing that Josh was there because I could totally picture an image like this… well, since we go to the zoo what feels like several times a week, my wish was granted yesterday! Here’s my boy in the dandelions… Happy Easter!

Environmental Portraits – My pal, Jill

Filed under Environmental, Jill Doherty, San Francisco Zoo • Written by millcottage @ 5:02 am
Speaking of trusty associates, Jill and I made a date last Friday to have lunch and go photograph some stuff just for fun! She has a wedding coming up at the San Francisco Zoo, and my avid blog readers know how I love the zoo… So we walked around, met some really nice people, and saw an 8 day old baby giraffe (oh how I love the giraffes…) We tried to think of a challenge, and late in the day we came up with the idea of photographing each other in a dandelion field with some interesting lighting challenges… Here’s my two favorites of Miss Jill…. and she just emailed me one of me, which I love! I’d say we passed our challenge with flying colors.

Maternity Portraits – San Carlos Studio

Filed under Studio Portraits, maternity photography • Written by millcottage @ 4:34 am

Clarence & Avigail’s wedding was the first one I photographed after the birth of my son, Josh… I brought my trusty associates, Jill and Shannon, and we set off for a beautiful day! Their wedding was beautiful, and their families were great to meet! And now, they are expecting their little boy in mid May. I was so happy to see them at the studio today, and as always, they are adorably glowing with love for each other, and their little creation! Thanks so much guys for sharing your growing family with me – I can’t wait til the little guy is born! Don’t forget to call me right away! Thanks also for indulging me in wrapping you up in stuff… I can’t wait to share all the images, but here’s one for now! big hugs, and take it easy!!

Michelle and Steve got married 5 years ago (where has the time gone???) and we were pregnant with our sons at exactly the same time – due just a day apart. We always love it when we get to see Michelle and Connor, and Josh kept asking for his friend all evening! Here’s Connor on the big Tortoise!!

Ahhh… the mustard, and my little red head… not perfect lighting, but still worth the stop, and worth falling in a ditch… Ouch!! Two thoughts went through my head… Save Josh, and Save the new camera (yes, in that order…)
