You start off as a couple, then you get married and have a baby. Then 4.5 years later, your next baby is… TWINS!
Here are some photos from this morning’s shoot with Julianna and Kevin and their darling children…
Taylor
This little beauty is 6 years old and just finished Kindergarten! Hooray for Tay!
Preston
He is one of the [...]

I shot another evening event last night, but this time, they were of adults only! I know, shocking!
Judy and Craig got engaged, and some of Craig’s friends threw them a party at the chic Paragon Restaurant in San Francisco.
I didn’t know how long it’d take to drive into SF with the usual Friday [...]
Georgia and Lia were born 7 days ago! They only weigh 4.9 lbs and 5.1 lbs. Yep, they’re teeny tiny and so precious!
I feel so honored when I do a newborn shoot because the first couple weeks — and sometimes longer — is an adjustment period for the family. So to invite someone into your [...]
Take a Workaholic who loves what she does and add a smidget of Crazy. You get Annie blogging at one o’clock in the morning!
I wanted to share our adventures and silliness from Father’s Day. And if things don’t make sense or I sound ridiculous, you’ll know why! It is 1am!
So the entire day was a [...]

Lili is due any day now. When she booked her session with me, I didn’t have any sooner openings, so I told her to keep the baby cooking in time for our photoshoot!
She wanted to capture images of her family — in its natural state — as a family of three… knowing that [...]
The T. Family wanted to celebrate their anniversary today by taking photos where they took their wedding portraits 5 years ago! The only difference — and they are 2 small ones — is they now have little Ian (3 yrs old) and Nolan (just turned 1)!
A funny fact is that Winnie and Jeff got married [...]

My firstborn munchkin finished her very first year of school this week!
So we went to Super Franks to celebrate it with her two best preschool buddies, Ryan and Kai.
Throughout our 3 hours there, Melia had the widest grin ever… even her eyes smiled!
Best buddies…
Sweet Kai and his little curls….
Ryan rode on the motorcycle so [...]

**SPECIAL POST FOR A CLIENT**
Hi Maria! I worked on image #1836 to the aspect ratio of 8×10, the size you wanted me to print. I also know you wanted the image cropped in, so it would highlight the girls more.
For comparison, I’ve included the original, the version you asked for, and an alternative suggestion….
THE ORIGINAL [...]

Explanation of the Title: My nutty family and I went to Brentwood to pick fruit today!
A client asked me recently during their photoshoot that I must have a ton of photos of my kids. I hesitated before answering. I guess that’s true compared to the average person. But I don’t think I take [...]

So today’s photoshoot was booked by Lordson who will be celebrating his 10 year anniversary in a few months, and he wanted professional photos of their kids to create a special gift for his wife, Grace. (Go Grace & Lordson! Ten years… wow!)
However, the morning didn’t start out so great…
My Drive
Yep, THIS was the [...]

It seems like many of you are interested in seeing examples of oomph-ified images! That’s what I call images I post-process to get them print-ready.
If any of you are wondering why you should print your images through me (even if you’ve purchased a CD), it’s because you get professional-grade prints AND most importantly, you get [...]
Since I arrive early for each photoshoot to check lighting, stake out good photo areas, and get my cameras set up, I have time to take a few snapshots that I find interesting of the location.
Here are a few photos that I found really interesting from my last shoot in San Francisco…
Out For A Smoke
This [...]

This morning I met with the C. Family. We needed to update their family portraits because they have a new member: Marissa!
Using photos from our photoshoot about 2 years ago, Will and Emi decorated their house (and I mean their entire house). They have an extra-large framed photo above their fireplace, a wall gallery, photo [...]

I had a photoshoot today of some bunnies in a garden.
Okay, it was more like a family with 3 children — Kai (8), Maya (6) and Nina (3) — who pretended to be bunnies on and off throughout the morning!
We just had a photoshoot last October, so the kids remembered me and were VERY comfortable [...]
