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. =)

Oh my gosh I can’t tell you how much I loved meeting up with these two precious little girls for a second time. Their momma suggested we head on down to St. Francis in Marinwood and boy was I in photographer’s heaven. Luckily her father works there so we had access to this gorgeous private property. If I could this is one place I would love to visit again. The grounds have so many beautiful little places that make for great backdrops. The lighting was beyond perfect while we were there which made my job super easy.

This time it was Little Miss E’s turn to shine and boy did she rock it. I seriously could photograph this little girl all day long and she loves the camera.

Many times I have driven by the Santa Rosa Laguna thinking how beautiful it looks from the road but I had never stopped. On a whim I decided to pull over on the morning before our session and was surprised to see how beautiful this place is up close and personal. I had a wonderful time with this family as we got to check out a new location, one of which I know I will be returning to again.

At last I finally get a chance to share photos from Little J’s session. This little guy won the Fabulous Faces contest back in May and I have been anxiously waiting for the fall to take his photos along with a few with the family as well. Had a fun time hanging out with this little guy and his family. Soon he will be a big brother so at the end of our session I captured a few shots of his mom who I happen to think has an adorable baby bump.

It was an absolute pleasure to meet this handsome little guy and his family. I had a wonderful time exploring their property finding so many wonderful locations for their session. Loved it!!!

This little guy dressed up as Pooh Bear for Halloween and naturally we just had to get a photo of him in his costume. Isn’t he the cutest?

Not to long ago I got a chance to meet a sweet little boy and his new family. This little guy was all smiles and just loved showing off his mad light saber skills with any stick he could find. His brother and sister just loved climbing all the trees they could find and at the end of our session together everyone was in the tree for one last family photo.

Celebrating Adoption an organization formed from a group of photographers dedicated in promoting adoption. During the first year of the adoption participating photographers offer a FREE “parent & child” session and a set of printed proofs. I also offer an additional 15% discount on any orders placed from their session and a FREE session a year later.

If you or anyone you know is interested in a Celebrating Adoption Session I encourage you to visit the website for more information by clicking the banner below.

I am so proud to say that I am a member of this organization. Last year I had the pleasure to meet one beautiful little girl and her awesome new mommy for my very first CA session.

Just for fun I was asked to come take some candid shots of Alexis and her buddy Shadow. Back in June I got a chance to see Alexis and Shadow together for the first time at the Napa Valley Equestrian Center for one of her shows so it was really neat to be able to see where she goes to practice.

Shadow wasn’t in the mood to play at all which I thought was pretty funny. Here are a few shots that I did get that I liked.

On a dreary day like today its wonderful to be able to going through a session like this and see how beautiful Santa Rosa can be this time of year.

Just 5-1/2 weeks ago this family welcomed their handsome little guy into this world. Nicole and Nick are long time clients of mine and really great friends. I absolutely love our sessions together and am so excited to share their most recent family photos. A year and a half ago was our first session and Wyatt was just 7 months old. Now he is quite the active toddler and a very loving big brother.

This precious little girl is the daughter to a good friend of mine. She is such a cutie pie and I love her dress. We got to test out a new location that I have had my eyes on and I happen to think it worked really well for this time of year. I likes!!

I still have a few spots left for Nov Holiday sessions. If you would like to have some photos in time for christmas be sure to schedule your appointment ASAP.

I am so amazed how fast babies grow and become such little people. I got a chance to hang out with my buddy Cole who is as adorable as can be. It seems like it was just yesterday I got to meet this little guy for the first time and then get together with his parents for his first  session when he was just a little over 7 wks old.

Who could resist momma time? Especially when it includes kisses.

Discovering grass for the first time can be quite the event for a little guy like Cole.

And I would have to agree with Cole that sitting in grass is pretty darn cool.
