Jim & Cheri stole my heart when I photographed her son’s wedding this past April. They have such positive and joyful spirits separately, and as a couple, theirs is the kind of love we all wish to have. They wanted to have these images to give to their family as gifts for the holidays and […]

Nikka & Cody. The classic warning of “we’re kind of rookies at this” and then they totally blow me away like experienced pros. It’s true, in so many sessions, that once you’re in the arms of the one person that makes your heart melt, love just falls into place so effortlessly. Congratulations, you two! So […]

The 2013 Album. Each person that graces the front of my camera becomes part of my family of clients. Whether it’s a quick one-time shoot or a full wedding experience, I get to know so many unique people in what, relatively speaking, is a rather short amount of time.

I hope you’re headed somewhere awesome!

John & Areian really enjoy their Saturday’s of walking to their local cafe, sipping coffee and catching up over the paper. I loved the idea of incorporating that into their engagement session, so we went to the neighborhood where Areian grew up and had a fun morning doing just that. San Francisco certainly doesn’t have […]

The way they met goes like this: Katelyn was out on a date with some guy. After the date was over, she went to go hang out with her brother and his friend, Brian. Instantly, Brian was interested but Katelyn’s brother gave him the “no way, you’ll never get her” response. Brian happily accepted the […]
