Northern California Maternity Photographer

Following my friends and clients through life milestones is something I’ll never tire of.  Photographing Ashley’s maternity session for her first child was one of those “we are all in this life together, and I love it!” moments.  I met Ashley at a photography class I was teaching and since then, she has often assisted me on lifestyle shoots and weddings.  Calm, composed, and focused, she is a wonderful person to work with, and I know those same qualities that she brings to photography will serve her well in her new role as a mother. Another client and friend of mine for years,…

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.

Keith and Tiffany are expecting a baby and I know they are going to be fantastic parents.

They have a love for adventure and a warmth of spirit that just makes you want to spend more time with them. “Finn” is going to be a lucky little boy! We met up down by the river in Sacramento where the two of them hopped on…

Melissa and Eric are expecting little Joscilyn any day now. In fact, I just tried to call Melissa to see how she was doing and her mailbox was full… hmmm…..sounds suspicious- I can almost hear that first cry to the world! Thankfully the weather finally cleared up long enough for us to squeeze in a maternity shoot for them before she arrived. Their only request for the session was a field, and thankfully I knew a family kind enough to let us borrow theirs for the afternoon.  They brought along their new puppy, Ari Gold, for the shoot, who seemed…
