With Mia growing older, I am no longer limited to the kind of shoots where I’m chasing after her til I’m panting and my throat hurts from making all the funny voices to make her laugh! Heh heh.
So for this shoot, she wore a chi-pao (a traditional Chinese dress). Here’s the funny part…
I didn’t know [...]

Most of my clients book Lifestyle Photography, but sometimes it’s nice to sprinkle some styled shoots into the mix.
Here was an unplanned styled shoot of Miss Kaitlyn, my sweet sweet stepdaughter who visited us over Thanksgiving. (I have SO MUCH to be thankful for!!!) Kaitlyn saw some of my photos and asked to have a [...]
Gina wanted some shots for her business to show her personality — which, to me, is fun, sweet, and friendly. She said she didn’t want anything stiff. The rest was up to me! Yeeha!!
I love when I have the full creative vision for a shoot! I picked out her outfits, accessories, shoes, location, backdrops, and [...]
Back in grade school, I remember this saying: When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. Something like that. I was only 10 years old, but I remember referring to it all the time. I know what you’re thinking…. those “lemons” probably weren’t too awful if I were that young, right?
Sure.
But that’s the lesson learned! [...]
Alas! The 3rd and last location of Ivan and Irene’s deluxe engagement session: a San Franciscan Hillside!
As you can see, this part of the shoot was entirely different than [Vintage] and [Garden] — from the photography style and casual mood to the lighting. Which part of their e-session is your favorite?
At the hillside, the [...]
Here is Part 2 of Ivan & Irene’s engagement session in San Francisco: In the Garden. [Click here to see Vintage.]

With Ivan and Irene’s vintage outfits and the antique car, these images remind me of those old films.
“Oh, mon dieu! My car!”

I just can’t wait any longer! I haven’t finished going through yesterday’s engagement session images yet, but I am bursting to share them!
So here is part 1: The Vintage Session. This was a styled shoot, not my usual lifestyle shoot. (Our e-session was more like 3 mini sessions because there were 3 locations. And they [...]
I had an impromptu mini model shoot today of soon-to-be famous Kelsey!
Kelsey’s mom only needed one shot for an agency, and I intended on giving her three, but egad! I just couldn’t narrow them down because Kelsey was soooo easy to photograph, so she got 14. That’s almost three, right?!
Here are a few of my [...]
Thank you, Mother Nature! A major rain storm that hit the Bay Area last night was suppose to last for 2-3 days, but it STOPPED for my commercial shoot for Zoette Boutique today! The heavy rain started up again soon after I got home. What a miracle!
Today’s shoot was split into 2 mini shoots: babies [...]
Late this morning, I took headshots of a red-head, named Kelsey. She is all of 2 1/2 years old, and she is already “drop dead gorgeous”!
This was a mini shoot because all we needed was one good headshot, but I have so many favorites that I can’t choose just one.
Here are only a few of [...]
Being a successful child model takes more than just being attractive. It takes a certain personality and demeanor and love of the camera.
Both Callie (3 years old) and Ian (8 months old) could definitely be models!
Gorgeous Smiles
Ian and Callie were sooooo smiley. As a photographer, I was in Heaven!

This has gotta be one [...]
This handsome little man is Ryan. Ryan is 8 1/2 years old. And he is a model.
Today we updated his model portfolio since he has changed so much since last year’s shots.
He had many outfit changes to show his range and ability to model different styles. Poor Ryan… it was only 50 degrees out today!
Here [...]
