I had a bit of a cranky day today… no patience, not enough sleep, who knows what else. The afternoon rolled around and I headed out for my session with Spencer knowing that it would be great to see him again, but feeling a bit tired, still grumpy, and wondering where my inspiration would come from. You know...

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...

It is awarded in recognition of service to the profession as an orator, author, or mentor. I...
I had so much fun running around San Francisco today in search of great places to photograph Annie’s beautiful belly! The first place we stopped is right around the mountain from my house, and I love the stone stairs! Annie was such a good sport in dealing with our frigid San Francisco chill… Her jacket...

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!!
I truly had hoped to have time to schedule some mini-sessions for the holidays, but weddings and regular portrait sessions kept me hopping until the bitter end… I will be organizing a spring open house instead, so we’ll be all ready for Mother’s Day! Thanks for understanding! I do have a couple of openings for...
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!!!...

The crisp snap in the air, the bright blue sky, and pumpkins, pumpkins everywhere!! Here’s two… same patch, same kid, 2 years different… my baby is...
