Northern California Photographer

Amy and Ryan’s big day was set on the beautiful grounds of the Wine and Roses Hotel in Lodi. Every detail from the flower arrangements on each table to the coordinating shirts of the little guys, groom, and groomsmen was thought through. Everyone, especially their boys loved the party atmosphere. There’s a lot of behind the scenes teamwork that goes into a wedding. Vendors communicating with each other, ironing shirts at the last minute,  pinning on boutonnieres, etc, all with the goal of trying to keep the day running as smoothly as possible for the Bride and Groom. Big Thanks…

I’ve known Tiffany and Keith since 2009. I’ve been there from their wedding to the birth of their son, Finn. I can’t believe Finn is now 6 months old, and boy is he handsome! We met at their house in Sacramento to capture their every day life with their new addition. From the swing in the front yard to the pool in the back, Finn was a happy camper. And you can tell he gets his love for the water from his momma- I think he could have stayed in that pool all night long. Of course no photography shoot…

I’ve known the McVey Family pretty much since I moved to Pollock Pines in 2000. I remember Sue being over at my house with her kids who were maybe 4 and 6 at the time and me being amazed that children could actually play together, clean up after themselves and take instructions. Of course, I had a 2? year old at the time and it seemed like it might take forever to get there. It didn’t. I have photographed their family a few times over the years but with Keagan heading off to high school, I think Sue was feeling…

I was so excited to hear that Brett and Erin were getting married, and honored that they chose me to be their photographer. I shot her sister Courtney’s  wedding last year, and was thrilled to get to work with their family again. This is just one of those families you never forget…in a good and warm way; kind, generous, joyful AND FUN. Many thanks to my past wedding clients, Jenn and Jeff, guests at both weddings, for their referral and for just knowing how we’d hit it off! We started out the day in Folsom where Erin and Brett got…

From the babysitter of my young girls to a graduating El Dorado high school senior…Samantha is moving on to the next step in her life. She will be attending our local community college, staying close to her two sisters and Mom and Dad. Just days before graduation with the fear of rain on her big day, her smile still shone amongst the spring flowers. She’s so beautiful!  Congratulations Samantha and best wishes to you in the new adventures that await you. I wish you all the success, love and happiness that this world has to offer and that you are…

Karen and Erin met while working in Northern California as Archeologists and the rest is history.  The two are looking forward to their August wedding at the High Sierra Iris and Wedding Gardens in Camino. Since the iris won’t be in bloom in August we felt it only fitting to capture the two of them with the iris in Coloma as they are blooming now.  I can’t wait until your big day in August.  Until then enjoy your pictures.
