What I love most about photography is the opportunity to capture authentic, raw emotion while meeting interesting and adventurous people. There is truly nothing like it. Add a little amazing natural light and you’re on your way to some beautiful photography.

Thank you, for a great morning- your complete gallery will be ready soon.
Women’s March, Sacramento GOTV
Yesterday I photographed the Women’s March GOTV Rally in Sacramento. It was a peaceful event on the west steps of the Capitol full of women and men, young and old, who all felt the urgency to DO SOMETHING. Like those who have paved the way for my own rights, I felt compelled to continue to pave the way for my daughters’ rights and their future. It’s inconceivable they might have fewer rights than my mother or me. There were other protesters adjacent to the rally. Despite the sound of sirens on a recorded loop which were intended to disturb this
