Folsom Photographer

Marisa and Juan celebrated their marriage with an intimate ceremony at Holy Trinity Parish in El Dorado Hills, surrounded by family and friends.

The days events ended with a celebratory fiesta at Q’bole in Folsom. I loved the energy between these two, loved the peach trees, and loved having such a beautiful wedding to start the year…

Weddings have a certain flow to them, an almost routine-like schedule that has to be followed in order to make sure all the bases are covered. Engagement sessions on the other hand are a whole different story.…

I’ve been working with the Anderson family for a good seven or eight years now- Jessica would remember:) . It was a challenge to figure out a location that they haven’t been to yet. We decided to trek down to Folsom, and shoot along the river for the evening. We spent most of the time just following the light, and the kids didn’t seem to mind being allowed to climb all over the rocks. We got some beautiful shots of the kids, and of the family. We decided to do a second mini session up at Boeger with Jessica in…
