San Diego Family Lifestyle Portrait Photographer: Family Session in Rancho Santa Fe

San Diego Family Lifestyle Portrait Photographer:  Family Session in Rancho Santa Fe
I was so happy when my college roommate Jen contacted me to photograph her family.  When we lived together in Newport Beach I never imagined that 17 years later I would photograph her, her college boyfriend (now husband), their two beautiful girls, and puppy. Our lives are so much different now that we have families.  I sometimes feel nostalgic for those fun days in t[...]

San Diego Maternity Lifestyle Photographer: Adorable Family at Presidio Park

San Diego Maternity Lifestyle Photographer:  Adorable Family at Presidio Park
I had the opportunity to photograph this adorable family's maternity session at the lovely Presidio Park, one of my favorite places to shoot.  Their little boy Connor kept me on my toes because he just wanted to run and explore.  He was at that adorable age where everything he says is a grunt and not yet a word.  He was such a happy boy, and this family was a joy to p[...]

San Diego Family Lifestyle Photographer: Fun with the “B” Family

San Diego Family Lifestyle Photographer:  Fun with the
I love that this family surprised Grandma and Grandpa with a photo session while they were in town for the holidays last month.  This photo session was centered around their granddaughter Rowan, who is obviously adored by the entire family, and for good reason.  She is such a beautiful and cute little girl!  Rowan's dress is by my favorite children's clothing designer[...]

Project Ten: Comfort

Project Ten: Comfort
Last Summer, we took a 3700+ mile, 22-day-long road trip that took us through CA, NV, UT, CO, NM, and AZ with our 14-year-old dog. We visited with family, attended a relative’s wedding in Salt Lake, and explored a small part of our beautiful country. We experienced temps as low as 41 degrees and as high as 113 degrees and elevations from sea level all the way up to [...]

Project Ten: Soft

Project Ten: Soft
On Mother's Day I spent the late afternoon and early evening at Torrey Pines State Beach with my family.  Where we live just twenty minutes inland it was blazing hot, so we decided to head to the coast.  As we got closer to the coast, we could see the marine layer engulfing the coastline.  It was a welcomed relief from the heat of the day and we were happy with an ove[...]

Project Ten Challenge: Treasures

Project Ten Challenge: Treasures
Hello!  It's been awhile since I've had the time to blog.  I took an unplanned hiatus from blogging but I'm back again, and I promise you will hear from me more often.  :) I joined a photo project with some other fellow female photographers called Project Ten Challenge. There will be ten different themes for the year, which are open to your own interpretation.  Thi[...]

Newborn Photo Session: Baby Dylan

Newborn Photo Session: Baby Dylan
I really enjoyed this photo session even though Baby Dylan did not want to sleep.  He fought sleep the entire time I was there.  So, we instead just focused on getting some nice, intimate lifestyle photos of his parents with their new baby boy.  We managed to get him to sleep for just a few minutes so I was able to catch a few sleepy shots.  He was such an adorable an[...]

Wanford Family Photo Session

Wanford Family Photo Session
We visited with our dear friends The Wanford's for the day at their posh little rental in Palm Springs.  It's turning out to be an annual tradition that we meet them out there in the Springtime so they can get some sun and escape from rainy Portland.  I was thrilled to finally get to meet baby Leuca and all his baby fat cuteness. Kasey and I became friends when we wer[...]

Newborn Session: Baby Ellie

Newborn Session: Baby Ellie
Baby Ellie was a dream angel to photograph.  She never cried and she slept for much of the photo shoot.  As though on cue, when she woke up she opened her sweet little eyes and looked right into the camera.  What luck to have such an easy baby to photograph!  And, she happened to be super adorable to boot.  I simply adore photographing newborns and their tiny little h[...]
