Thanks for stopping by. Check in every so often to see recent photography sessions, weddings, and family fun. I also post little tidbits about my life and work so you can get to know me a little better. Take a peek, enjoy, and let me know what you think!
I’ve been running into Matt alot on the “wedding circuit”. First at Matt and Gretchen’s Fausel Ranch Wedding and then at Elisha and John’s Fausel Ranch Wedding. In fact, at Elisha and John’s wedding, he met Alex, who was a bridesmaid for Elisha. I remember taking a photograph of her looking at Elisha’s dress…. I know it is hard to keep up with but at the end of June I will get to photograph their wedding at Fausel Ranch(one of my favorite spots) while 2 of my past brides(Gretchen and Elisha- who will also both be very pregnant) stand by Alex! Wait- “Three weddings and a Birth”? Only time will tell- never done that before! It’s going to be such a great day and I am so glad that Alex and Matt asked me to do this for them. They are both alot of fun and clearly adore each other. The countdown begins….

Nathan is growing like a weed! I always love finding new places to photograph but not as much as I love spending some time with the Hayashi family. It’s great getting to watch it all happen and stay in touch over the years! Baby Nathan is now 8 months old and Kiki is 12. This family loves a little soccer so what better than a photo shoot at the Kalithea Park in El Dorado Hills- really, the view from the soccer field doesn’t get any better- a high-end soccer field, if you will. Kiki is a fantastic soccer player so I asked them to bring a ball. I imagine her brother will follow in her footsteps. We started at the baby swings which was Nathan’s first time. He wasn’t that fond of the hat. The best part was by the end of the evening we even got Ross (a photographer himself) and Kristy in front of the camera for a family shot!
The evening ended with being treated to some of Kristy and Kiki’s fabulous cookie creations. They do wonders with baking and decorating and brought along a few cookies for me to bring back to my girls. See you all for his 1 year cake smash!

I knew from the moment I met Randi and Austin, that they were going to be a fun couple to photograph because, well, they were referred to me by my friend Melinda (who is a pretty fun person herself!). Their engagement session confirmed that, AND their wedding was every bit as fun as I expected it to be- lots of love surrounding them by family and friends always makes for a warm, good time.
Austin is a firefighter, so they chose The Firehouse in Old Sacramento to host their wedding. This was my first time shooting their and I loved it! There were so many details that set the scene that day, from the first look in the fully blooming, downtown Rose Garden, to entering the reception to the ring of a siren, and even cutting the cake with an engraved ax. Randi and Austin, thank you so much for letting me drag you around through Old Sacramento, and trusting me enough to not get you run over by a car while standing in the middle of the street by the Tower Bridge! Congratulations you two and thanks for a fun day!

Lisa,
The pictures are beautiful!!!!
You really captured the beauty of the evening!
Love all that beautiful light! Gorgeous photos, Lisa.
I first photographed these two a few years ago for their engagement session, and now here they are expecting their first little one. Nicole wanted to document the occasion with a session in their home. We started with some more intimate semi-nudes(and are keeping them off the blog for obvious reasons), and ended the session with the two of them in the park just down the street from their home. Thank you Nicole for letting me document this next milestone in your family! I can’t wait to meet him or her soon!

I’ve known Ashley for at least a good 8 years and it is truly amazing to see these kids grow up right before your own eyes.
Being the individual that she is, Ashley introduced me to a new location for her photographs. She loved it and was comfortable there. For me, I love discovering new spots…the adventure of new spots! I enjoyed Ashley’s earthy spirit and am excited to learn of the gifts she offers this world in the coming years. Congratulations Ashley.
