It’s not often that you get a family with 3 older boys that are okay spending an hour having their pictures taken. Spencer, Ethan, and Jared (aka Dude, Middle Man, and Little Man) seemed to enjoy themselves. I loved the “heart” of this family. They were just one of those families that was not only fun to be around, but seemed to enjoy each others company as well. Kudos Cheryl and Dennis. Thank you for having me!

Anna and I met Macy and her mom and sister down at Boeger. Coming down from Pollock Pines, it’s amazing to me that it is still fall “down the hill”. Being from even further down the hill, they wanted an Apple Hill backdrop. Macy, a natural beauty with those ever changing blue/ green eyes was fun to shoot. Her mom wanted to get a few with her sister too so I photographed a few individuals while Macy was changing outfits. It’s always fun to photograph sisters. Congrats Macy on your upcoming graduation.

Our family has known the Bartolos for many years now. Jeff and I often marvel at how lucky we have been to have had(and keep having) their daughters who are only a year or two apart each, to babysit our girls. First was Kalene, now is Samantha and hopefully Jacqueline will want to. We all laugh(on camping trips) that all of our friends have daughters, not sons. Funny. It looks like the trend(mostly) runs in the Bartolo families. When we originally planned this shoot (2 weeks earlier, in the fall…haha), we weren’t expecting all of the snow this early in…

I got a call from Starla a while back, to come photograph her family. She was brave enough to host 2o people for Thanksgiving and wanted me to come and grab a family shot while they were all together. I was surprised at how ‘with it’ they all seemed to be  (even with all of those little boys running around) and we were able to grab everything on the list of must have shots, and even had some time for some extras! I was so glad that I was able to capture Starla and her husband with their two dogs…

I’ve been working with the Anderson family for a good seven or eight years now- Jessica would remember:) . It was a challenge to figure out a location that they haven’t been to yet. We decided to trek down to Folsom, and shoot along the river for the evening. We spent most of the time just following the light, and the kids didn’t seem to mind being allowed to climb all over the rocks. We got some beautiful shots of the kids, and of the family. We decided to do a second mini session up at Boeger with Jessica in…

As I sit here at a friends home in Camino, using their power and internet connection, it is hard to believe that just last week was lovely fall weather. Kristina and her mother met me at Boeger for Kristina’s senior photograph shoot. Looking back, it was one of the last days of fall. I’m glad we got out when we did! Enjoy your blog teaser and slideshow, all of your proofs will be up soon! Here is your slideshow!

It seems like I’ve been working at Boeger a lot these days, but I can’t think of a better place to have shot the Poole family. The light was beautiful, the family was full of fun, and there was lots of space for the little ones to run around and have fun. These two were on their way to a date night at The Kitchen once my time with them was over ( I hope I didn’t get you guys too dirty!). The fall colors of apple hill made for a beautiful backdrop for these guys, and there’s nothing quite…

Michelle and Tim are a great couple. As a photographer, it is a great feeling you get when you see someone’s natural connection and ease with each other…AND you get to photograph them! This is them; easy going and open both to each other and to the “good time” wherever it may be. They are the kind who will find it, if it doesn’t find them first. Tim is a structural engineer and Michelle has been working in the commercial real estate industry in some form or another for the past 4 years. They actually met while on the job…

If you’ve had the chance to work with me in the past two years then you probably remember my former assistant, Cassie. Meet Miranda, Cassie’s younger sister. I took Cassie’s senior portraits a few years back, and then their brother Zac’s a year or so before that and now it was Miranda’s turn.  We met at Boeger Winery right before the sun started to go down. I took advantage of the fact that I worked with her sister and asked Miranda how she and her sister are different. Her first response was “I’m smarter” which just cracked me up- gotta…
