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.
I’ve been capturing weddings, family lifestyle photography and casual portraits for more than a couple decades now working primarily in the Sacramento, Lake Tahoe, Napa, and San Francisco Bay areas, as well as all along the coastlines around San Diego and Coronado and everywhere in between.
Thank you so much for visiting my website and taking a few minutes to look at some of my photographs. I’ve been photographing weddings, families, milestones, and events for over 20 years. I know secret and beautiful photography shoot locations around Sacramento, Lake Tahoe, Napa, the San Francisco Bay area, and the California coastline from Point Reyes down to San Diego and Coronado.

Originally purchased by his great-grandfather, the property became the backdrop for decades of family life. Charlie’s mom and aunt grew up there, along with all the cousins who spent holidays, summers, and countless family gatherings surrounded by the beauty of the mountains. The home sits high above Pleasant Valley with a breathtaking 180-degree northern view — wide open skies, rolling
Ayla – Class of 2026, Union Mine High School
Ayla’s golden hour senior session in Coloma: Union Mine, Class of 2026 Easygoing, fun, and naturally funny, this Union Mine High School senior brought lots of personality to her session—complete with her signature shoulder shimmy, which I hear she may even be famous for among her friends. A lover of theatre, reading, and writing, she’s found not just creativity but true community on stage. That sense of connection is what every high schooler hopes to find in the four years defined as high school. Her favorite musical artists are Noah Kahan, Hozier, Mumford & Sons, and The Lumineers.
