Ok, granted I get a bit nostalgic with these two, well, these three now. Enter Zoe. Tara and Tony purchased a Baby Package when they knew they were expecting. Their package came with three sessions throughout Zoe’s first year and a One Year Brag Book Album. For Zoe, her sessions were at newborn, 4 months(with her grandparents too) and at one year, plus they added a pregnancy session as well. Zoe just celebrated her first year of life and now we get to pick all of the favorites from each of the shoots to create their First Year memory album.…

I had the chance to meet up with Sandi and Terry Friday night at Larsens Park in Camino. Sandi was Jaz’s second grade teacher. Jaz loved her- and so did we. We gave this session to her as an end of the year thank you gift. The light was beautiful, and so were these two! Thank you Sandi for making Jaz’s year in second grade such a fantastic one!

The reception tables were named after the things that join them ( single track, high places, and river play) and covered in beautiful wildflower arrangements. Their unique vows to each other included their desire for a family that loves the outdoors and adventure.

Meet Juno and Kona! Julie and Brian got married back in 2008 – and now they have twins! Jaz and Ember met their babies last month and we are due for another visit soon!

I met Cherise and Chris in Redwood City for their session. Cherise, a hairstylist, and Chris, who works at REI,  are such a fun and vibrant couple. We ended up having a blast at the playground where they got engaged and getting some great images that really show off how fun they are. After the park we decided to grab some of that fantastic evening light over at the shoreline.  I look forward to Cherise and Chris’ wedding at the Laurel Mill Lodge in Los Gatos next month! I love that they are having a camping wedding and that I…

My friend Judy, from David Girard asked me to come on out and shoot their annual Grape Stomp for their wine club members, so Ember and I made a day of it. Here she is with her camera ready to shoot some photographs… Not sure why I did not include the pocket book(fashion statement)…it was very sparkly! Ember had a blast getting to stomp the grapes. This is Mari their fabulous winemaker! Serious business! Gotta have a kid stomp! And what would a grape stomp be without a costume contest? Judy with the winners of the costume contest- pretty awesome,…

I had a chance to support the Sugarloaf Fine Arts Camp this year by setting up a photo booth for their 8th annual fundraiser at Smith Flat House in Placerville last weekend. This year also marked the 50th anniversary of Sugarloaf. Sugarloaf is a summer fine arts camp in Pollock Pines that provides classes for 6th grade through high school students in Concert Bands, Visual Arts, Theater Arts, Creative Arts, Photography, and Jazz Bands to name a few. The fundraiser helped to provide scholarships for students who might not otherwise be able to attend. Attendees to the fundraiser had the chance…

Sue and I used to exercise together with a bunch of other gals several(ok, a few more than several) years ago. I was thrilled when she called wanting to capture some photographs of her with her absolutely precious grand children, Kylie, Alyssa and Sarah. They were excited to be sharing this memory with Grammy! Enjoy this blog teaser, the rest of the images will be online shortly!

When you called me earlier this year to cancel your wedding, I tried to comfort you by letting you know that “you have all the time in the world to get married”. I had no idea that this was not true. Rest in peace Amy. We will all miss your free spirit and beautiful smile.
