Seniors

Beautiful Greta…on a glorious sunny day out in the green, green hills at Cronin Ranch. Greta will join the Class of 2025 this spring when. she graduates from Oak Ridge High School in El Dorado Hills. She was referred from a favorite family of mine so I knew it was going to be fun. Grateful for those referrals, always. I loved her energy, playfulness and kind heart. She loves all-things skiing, hiking, hanging out with friends and playing with her cute pup, Reese.  She heads to the University of Utah this fall and her grin in her new-found college-wear says…

This May, Trent will join the Class of 2025 from El Dorado High School as they all walk across the stage into new adventures. At ELDO Trent was All-Conference and MVP, playing defense for ELDO Soccer. When his mom contacted me about photos, we decided on a combo senior/family session since they hadn’t had a family photo in many, many years. They are a dynamic and connected family and I enjoyed their playful energy with me and with each other. Trent’s favorite musicians are Nirvana, Hank Williams, Mike Sherm, 21 Savage and Stone Temple Pilots. I always ask because I’m…

I don’t know about you but when someone says “I’m going to take a year abroad” my mind wanders off into an exciting place; fresh exploration and adventure steeping in cultural uniqueness, interesting conversations, delectable food, and the general aliveness one feels while traveling and exploring new ground. Rylie, is heading to Germany after graduation and plans to travel through Europe on her “year abroad”—just SAYING that gets me going! She’s been in German class for the last two years getting ready and while she admits to a little nervousness, and believe me, we all feel that, she will be…

Aalijah graduates this spring from Pacific Crest Academy with the Class of 2025. I enjoyed getting to know him and his mom, Sarahkay as we moved through the fall wonderland I have access to up in Camino. It’s a spectacular and private location- you’ll love it too. It took me a bit to gain Aalijah’s trust and dig into some expressions that weren’t planned. He’s got a great smile but you had to find the real ones through his politeness. I enjoy that. Aalijah came to me through a local referral, the Coggiolas. He plans to study biology and business…

Beautiful Sofia. We had originally met at 24 Carrot Farm for their gorgeous flower backdrop but we got started a little late. Just as the last little bit of sun was tucking away over the hillside and Sofia drove in, we decided to split her session so we did half of it up at Sly Park Lake where the light lingers a little longer and then came back to 24 Carrot the next day, a little earlier for the flowers and some warm sunshine. It worked out great and I was happy to accommodate Sofia as her family have been…

A few years back I had the pleasure of photographing Alec’s sister, Ally. This time around it was for Alec, the youngest of Avis and Andy.  As my friends and clientele know, I’m a music lover. When Alec wanted to include his drum kit and drumming in his senior photographs, I was “jazzed”. And then, I was only a little surprised, “Wait, we’re headed down to the river with his kit?” Yes, we were with the help of his roadie parents. However, as Quincy Jones said, “There are two things you can’t live without. Water and music” and it appears…

THANK YOU EL DORADO COUNTY! for voting for me as BEST FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER and also third in WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY! What an honor! They say that “doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life”- and I am so honored for the abundance that your friendship and support has provided for me and my family over the last 24 years. From pregnancy to birth to newborns to kids to families to high school seniors, to engagements to weddings and sometimes back around again. What a ride it has been! Fall Family photographs are in full swing. Let’s…

You studied, you tested, you worked hard for years, and the time is officially here! It’s time to start thinking about senior photographs and I’m eager to collaborate with you to create photographs that you love. As a photographer, I want to make sure you are comfortable and having fun during your session.

I’ve photographed Jordan’s family over the years many times including weddings, pregnancy, birth, family….and now they are living in Belgium where Jordan will join them to attend University upon graduating from his high school in Sacramento and he can’t wait! We met up for golden hour last week and captured some images to mark his achievement and it was great reconnecting with him since it has been years. He is sweet, kind and confident- eyes wide open with the world in front of him- and he is ready and looking forward to what is next. He enjoys bowling and the…
