Orange and Black are everywhere! I love the crisp fall days, and changing leaves of red, green and gold!! It makes me gasp every year that it’s almost holiday time… wow.. my little boy is almost 5 now. I have been photographing him every year in the same pumpkin patch, and I love comparing the...
We have been enjoying a lot of fine weather lately, and fall is always my favorite season… Warm colors, crisp clear days, chilly nights with tea or hot cocoa around the fireplace (since we actually have one now!!) I also love it when creative brides buck tradition and have pie at their wedding instead of...
Just wanted to share some details from this beautiful wedding at Wente Vineyards! The Vineyard Lawn was the perfect setting for the ceremony and celebrations! I love that Wente has a great variety of locations on their property to choose from, and have photographed weddings at all of them! The food and service is stellar,...

I am so pleased to be photographing Lisa & Ruben’s wedding at Ralston Hall later this year! They are friends of many of my friends, and Ralston Hall at Notre Dame d’Namur University is a gorgeous venue for a wedding! I knew they were brave when they agreed to model for me at the DivA...
Wine Country wedding season is about to kick in and I can’t wait to photograph my first wedding of the season in Sonoma in a couple of weeks. Before things get too busy it was nice to have a free weekend to head out with my hubby and check out Wineroad in the Russian River wine country and...
I am feeling the spring time, and am so pleased to offer a special portrait mini-session in and around my San Carlos children’s photography studio on Wednesday and Friday, February 10 and 12th, just in time for Valentine’s Day!!! Only $95, which is a savings of almost $200 from our regular session fee! Reserve your 30 minute...
Thanks to everyone for the wonderful comments on the portraits of Alana from her party and from my children’s portrait studio in San Carlos! I am so glad especially that family and friends who weren’t able to attend the celebration are able to see how happy everyone was for Alana’s miracle! I know everyone is...
I still have plenty of film in the fridge from the early days in my business when I shot wedding photography on film! I did love my beautiful Mamiya RB 67, and the several wonderful lenses I have for it, as well as liking the anticipation of waiting for a roll of film to be...
At the beginning of the month I did an awesome shoot with Carrie D. Mader and Armando Sarabia in San Francisco! I have been working on these images, and am so excited to share my latest slideshow with my blog readers!!
Sound the trumpets, strike up the band, in other words, “hit it!” Sydney is here, and she’s such a pretty little newborn baby. You forget how small they are when they are newborns… and how soft they are, and how cute and tiny their feet are, and those soft little birdie sounds they make… Ahhhhhh!!!...
It all came together like a dream… Producing a photo shoot is a LOT of work to make things happen, and I must say my team on this shoot was one of the best ever! Beautiful hotel location in Downtown San Francisco… beautiful models who get A++ in professionalism and were lovely and wonderful to work...
When my friend lived in Alameda with her daughter, we spent a LOT of time on Park Street… shopping, lunching, walking around, pushing baby strollers… I always relish getting back there now! I visited one of my favorite shops, Daisy’s at 1347 Park Street for a photo shoot of what’s new and fabulous for holiday decor,...

Viansa Winery When I got married a few years back, I looked at many wedding locations in Sonoma! One that came really close to being the wedding venue for us was Viansa, and I always love to shoot weddings there!! Thanks again to Shannon Stellmacher Photography for having me along. Here are some of my...
Our trip is drawing to a close, and I had a couple of moments to work on a few images… I would love to shoot a wedding here in the Smoky Mountains – the wedding chapels in Gatlinburg are adorable for weddings as is the beautiful landscape. Cade’s Cove was a day trip for us...
Finally getting another few minutes to post some wedding images from an amazing wedding I shot this summer with Shannon Stellmacher Photography. It was such a gorgeous Napa day, and the couple was incredible as well! I love the Meritage Resort - it is simply stunning… warm Tuscan colors, great cave, and beautiful accomodations. Oh, and...
