I just got back from a weekend in Dallas where I attended the BLOOM Face 2 Face Workshop. We spent three days shooting models in the warmth of the Texas sun and in a beautiful natural light studio. I have cards full of images waiting to be edited and I’ll share them in the next …
I can’t believe it’s already week 7 of this project! Time is flying by this winter. If you missed the last few weeks, you can catch up HERE, HERE, and HERE. Innocence The first thought that popped into my head when I saw this week’s theme was to feature a newborn. Newborns are the epitome …

Magical. That’s the word I would use to describe the work of Gina Maxine Oh of Gina Maxine Photography. I remember the first time I saw her work. It was an image of one of her ballerinas and it blew me away. I admired her “from afar” for a long time. I adore her stylized …
We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day for an engagement session. Sunny, warm, green hills, a perfect February evening in the Bay Area. Add to that these two who are obviously so in love and so excited for their August wedding and a little magic happened for us last weekend. These two have …

Rebekah Westover is one of my very favorite wedding photographers. Based out of Utah, where the marriage rate …

I’m slowly but surely working on editing our images from our Maui trip. I came across this one that we took with the self timer for our February Project 12 images. Here we are in the raw. No makeup. No hair done. No shoes on. Hardly any clothes on. But that’s how we spent everyday. …
We photographers are a strange bunch. There are quite a few of us these days, if you haven’t noticed. And we are all trying to “somehow stand out” and “find our unique style” and “rise above the masses”, and yadda, yadda, yadda. It’s not surprising then that for some of us, the instinct would be …
You can read more about our Fifty-two on Friday project HERE. Past themes: Self-Portrait, Black and White, & Joy There were so many things that came to mind when I was thinking about this week’s theme: Simple. But I knew this was ‘it’ when I saw it. We’ve been in Maui all week and I’ve …
One of my biggest regrets so far in life has been not getting newborn pictures taken of my four kids. Of course, they were all born before newborn photography really took hold the way it is today. And, they were born before photography became a passion of mine so I wouldn’t have been able to …
Meet Abigail She’s pretty and soft and so so new. I was thrilled when my first casting call client contacted me last night. Since her sweet newborn was a week old today, we decided to hold her session this morning. I ask all of my newborn clients to crank up the heat before I get …
