I have been purposely saving this session to bring some yummy sunshine on a gloomy day.
It appears winter is officially here in the North Bay and its really starting to get chilly.
Over the summer I meet a wonderful family who all got together for a weekend to celebrate their parent’s 50th Wedding Anniversary.
The family rented this gorgeous house in the hills around Larkspur Santa Rosa that had the most beautiful backdrop.
We couldn’t have asked or planned for more perfect of a day with some of the yummiest sunlight I have seen all year.
I’ve always enjoyed photographing large family gatherings. I don’t know what it is about it in particular but there is something to be said
when you get parents, children and grandchildren all together in one place especially when its for such a specially occasion like an anniversary.
Everyone was a joy to work with and such a wonderful family.

The Happy Couple who clearly are still in love ♥

The kids

Grandma and the girls

Grandpa and the boys

Just the kids

My favorites of the grandkids. They were all so photogenic







And a few more of my favorites

Another gorgeous model and another new location!!! I had so much fun working with Ashley as we went exploring though an old abandoned building here in Santa Rosa.
A couple weeks ago I stumbled across this place by accident and we were super lucky to have an opportunity to check it out. The lighting was perfect.
What was supposed to be a short 1hr session turned into 3hrs and so much more than we ever planned. Thanks again for being so adventurous Ashley!!!

13 years have flown by so fast and in a blink of an eye my baby girl, my first born, is officially a teenager. I never could have imagined how this little person has changed my life forever. She is an amazing student and extremely talented with the flute. While I can’t take credit for her musical talents I would like to think I have had something to do with her love for school. Over the weekend my girl celebrated her birthday at home with a few of her friends and of course her little sisters. Words can not describe how much I love hearing a house full of children with all the giggles that come along with it.

My girls are the reason why I am called mom ♥ Happy Birthday to my beautiful teenager!!!!

I absolutely love it when there is an opportunity to explore someplace new, especially when a its place that is a little bit on the nontraditional side. Steve and I have spent the last couple months planned a series of sessions throughout the North Bay area starting with an afternoon exploring Mountain Cemetery in Sonoma, Ca. This old cemetery was filled with lots of awesome textures that made for an unique setting.
While wondering around the cemetery both Steve and I had this old fenced in section catch our eye and we knew we had found exactly what I was looking for. I have to give a HUGE thank you again to his super patient girlfriend who held the reflector for me as I climbed onto various parts of that tiny little section trying to find the sweet spot to get the shot. This one by far is my favorite!


Steve was so great to work with and I can’t wait to get out and shoot together again. We seem to totally be on the same page with ideas and have so many plans in the works already. =)

Miss Carley was my little model as I did some location scouting up in Healsburg, Ca. Isn’t she gorgeous? We had a ton of fun exploring a couple bridges and went on a long walk along the RR tracks. The heat was a bit of a bare but the adventure was so worth it.



Next time though I will need to remember the number 1 rule when exploring, must bring water =)

Being a big sister myself to my one and only brother I can totally relate to the special bond a brother and sister have with one another. I have been photographing this beautiful family for the last 3 years and I love seeing the change from year to year, watching these two adorable little ones grow up.
This year we decided to do something a little different since mom’s brother was in town visiting and met at Luther Burbank Gardens near downtown Santa Rosa for a brother sister shoot. It was a ton of fun and these two little one’s were having so much playing especially with Uncle =)
Here are a few of my favorites

Today is this beautiful lady’s birthday. Happy Birthday Luz!!!
I had the pleasure of meeting Luz a few months ago when she called to inquire about setting up a session just for her birthday. We hit off from the very first conversation and I am very happy to say has become an instant friendship. I love it!! Of course it helps our birthday’s are only a few days apart and she can say she is a few days older than me which I find really cute.
Because this is one of those “landmark” birthday’s, no I am not going to give the age, we wanted to do something extra special. I teamed up with my fabulous stylist Stephanie of Stephanie’s Beauty Artistry who, as always, did a fabulous job on hair and make up.
Multiple wardrobe changes and several locations equal a full day of fun!!!
