Sweet Birthday Girl






Seriously adorable!  This was a lovely day celebrating a happy and sweet Birthday girl turning the Big One!  I got nothing but big smiles from her all day.  Pure and absolute cuteness!

When I Grow Up


When I see this, I can't help but smile!  I worked on a sweet project with a fellow Mom for a school fundraiser.  We asked kids ages 2, 3 and 4 what they'd like to be when they grow up.  Then, we captured their answers on chalkboards, including: pirate, princess, mermaid, artist, ballerina, skateboarder, race car driver, doctor and mommy.  We also asked the teachers what they wanted to teach the kids to help them achieve their goals (love, dream, inspire, believe and admire).  The result was this awesome, poster-size collage, which also raised a lot of money for the school.

Firehouse 1st Birthday Party


The most handsome, dashing 1-year-old out there!  The First Birthday celebration was at a beautifully-restored firehouse in the city, which made for great backdrops and natural light.  This lil' heart-breaker was so fun to photograph on his big day.

Fun day at the Zoo




It's a treat when families come back to me each year for their family photos.  I'm incredibly lucky to have such thoughtful clients.  Spending some time at the Zoo, I got to capture the sweet and happy nature of this lil' guy and his wonderful parents.

Backyard adventures




Sometimes, there's no better place to explore than your own backyard!  This brother & sister duo had a great time together as they showed me secret spots in one of their favorite places to hang out.

Oh, happy day!  What a joyous, memorable day celebrating the big one-year mark.  This adorable lil' tot is one of the happiest I've ever seen.  She has amazing parents and their love for one another is palpable.

Family Beach Time





I had the funnest time taking photos of this family.  We got lucky with beautiful weather as we hung out at a beach in the East Bay.  The closeness and unconditional happiness that these three share is wonderful.  I don't often get to snap photos of adolescents, but I wish I did because they made it the most relaxed shoot I've had yet.  I adore this family!
