2010 Year in Review | weddings

I am going to apologize in advance because this is going to be a very, very long post. It’s going to be large for several reasons, but mostly because I am so attached to my clients (and my images of them) that I can’t help but post so many. My brides, grooms and their families […]

Lodi Portrait Session at Wine and Roses | the Besabe family

First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the baby in the baby carriage, right? It’s as natural as the lyric suggests, just like this beautiful family.

A Day to Give Thanks

On Thanksgiving (and every day), for these things I am grateful: Having the basic necessities in life that so many of us take for granted: food, clothing, shelter and love. That our God is loving and merciful and for the promise that Jesus Christ holds for us. For my husband who is a good man […]

Folsom Portrait Photographer | Logan’s mini-session

Logan was such a sport for getting up so very, very early to do the Unite Everything 4 promo shoot; I really felt compelled to show him some appreciation. So we took advantage of the time (and that gorgeous light) and snuck in a mini-portrait session. The mood of the Unite Everything shoot was pretty […]

Folsom Lake Family Portrait Session | the Curry family

I adore the family unit. There’s something about watching the subtle ways in which people who love each other interact that is just so interesting and beautiful. When Katrina contacted me to take portraits of her and her family, I was completely enamored with the sense of comfort that she had in the midst of […]
