Last night I stumbled across these photos of my friend Chris as I was going through my archives to update my website. Coming up on almost a year ago, last summer I flew a very good friend of mine to Cali from Las Vegas to shoot a wedding with me here in Santa Rosa. We have been friends since college and this was the first time seeing each other since 2000 which seems like forever ago.

I have been told doing a handstand is a Crossfit thing and taking a photo is something they do when they visit someplace new =)

It was great seeing my buddy Chris again after so many years and we made a great team working together for Cathy + Bobby’s Wedding. Wish he didn’t live so far away because we really did have a ton a fun. Thanks for letting me share your pics Chris. Next time I am coming to Vegas.

♥ ♥ I can not express enough now much I love what I do. ♥ ♥

Yesterday I met up with the most amazing family for brother and sister high school senior sessions. We headed down to the Marin Headland bunkers and had an incredible time. The setting was perfect setting and I had complete artistic freedom. This session rocked!!! I came home so excited that I just had to get a few photos up for a preview before going to bed. I am so looking forward to meeting with the family tomorrow for their session preview.

Here are a couple of my favs from our session.

I know its a tad late but I am finally getting a chance to update this blog with photos from one of my favorite girls to photograph. I’m sure you all recognize miss Trianna as she is frequently in front of my camera.

This year for her back-to-school photos we headed down to Railroad Square in Santa Rosa which happens to be one of my favorite urban settings to shoot. Her mom went all out and bought this most adorable outfit which IMHO is just so her ♥

In the parking lot in front of the visitor center there was this really neat bug so we asked the guy if we could borrow it for Trianna’s session. Luckily the guy was super nice and didn’t mind at all. I absolutely love this photo.

I just can’t get over how big my babies are getting. I swear kids just grow up way too fast!!! I’m finally getting a chance to share a few photos from a session I did last month down at Railroad Square in Santa Rosa with my own girls. This is something I look forward to doing around their birthdays which lucky for me allows for sessions 3 times a year and its so neat seeing how much they have changed from the year before. Considering I am photographer you would think my walls are filled with recent photos of my own girls but sadly photos get taken and never printed. This year however I couldn’t resist and finally I have updated/recent photos hanging on my walls.

My oldest started Jr High/Middle school this year. Already I can see she is loosing that little girl look and is becoming a teenager.

*sniff sniff* She is looking so grown up

I just love this shot of my youngest. Its a face she makes all the time but this was the first time I have been lucky enough to capture it.
I can’t help but to smile every time I see this.

I have been so anxious to share these but have held off for a couple weeks until I was able to share a link back to the fabulous Miss Things Boutique. Its been raining like crazy this winter season so we have had a hard time planning a session to get out and photograph these adorable pettiskirt dresses but we managed to get a tiny break a few weeks ago. These are part of the new Punk Line over at Miss Things Boutique. Seriously how cute are these?!?!

Finally got a chance to have a senior portrait session over at Railroad Square in Santa Rosa. I love the urban funkiness of that area with all the brick and stone work of the old buildings. So much character and I’m always finding neat little areas every time I go down there. I had a wonderful afternoon with Shona and her mom as we hopped around RRSq. These cloudy/rainy days can be somewhat unpredictable this time of year but we got lucky despite being a tab bit cold.

Its been a crazy busy holiday season. Now that I have a little down time I can finally catch up on all the wonderful sessions I have had these last few months. I had a chance to visit one of my favorite locations down in Petaluma with the N family which was perfect for this family

I absolutely love working with this little girl. I can take her to any location and be guaranteed amazing photos. With no effort at all she can make something so simple into a wonderful yet dramatic photo. Oh how I wish photographing my own girls was this easy.

For our most recent session we headed over to an old favorite with a new twist. I have photographed several sessions over in Rail Road Square in Santa Rosa but this time I am loving the set I got with Trianna.

Recently (or not so recently, maybe a few months ago) I found out about the Santa Rosa bunkers from a flickr friend of mine. I have always wanted to go there for a photo session but was saving it for the right client that fit the location. When my friend asked me to take some boudoir photos of her I couldn’t resisted the opportunity for an adventure which turned out to be a dream come true. Not only was the location perfect but the results are absolutely stunning.

Its not often I get a session where I have complete artistic freedom and then get to show off the results of my work. I am truly blessed that I have an amazing friend who let not only let me take some amazing boudoir photos of her but also let me share a few of them publicly.

This one took my breath away. Its very sexy without showing too much. I tell ya I have the best clients.

I have to give huge Kudos to two awesome ladies who came down to help. Laura for her amazing makeup. I have been a fan of her artistic talent for way over a year now. And my friend Sarah who did a fabulous job on hair. You can betcha that I will be calling on these ladies again for my next boudoir session. Thanks again!!!

Every year I have the pleasure of getting together with this little tribe for their family photos. Just a year ago the family grew by one more to make a family of 7. So much has happened in the last year with Baby G turning 1, her sister starting kindergarten (happens to be in the same class as my little girl) and the big kids doing great in their new school. I can’t believe its been 4 years already since I first met this family and I am so proud to call them my friends.

For this year’s family photo we decided to go/try something new and head over to Railroad Square in Santa Rosa, Ca. Each time I head over there I find something new to love.

Gotta love the expressions on these adorable kiddos. Definitely shows their personalities. I find it funny how each one of them have dirtied their jeans the same way.

Just the kids:

Took this one a while back but never blogged it. Baby G was loving this bucket and then some. She is so cute.

Young love. This little guy was loving on my youngest. They are just too cute. I wonder what they are going to say when they look at this photo as adults.
