I had the opportunity to shoot a spring spread for Active Family Magazine last month. My favorite part of commercial photography is collaborating with a team to create a concept. This mother and daughter duo was fabulous all day despite numerous wardrobe changes and unseasonably warm weather here in the Bay Area. Stylist: Jeneffer Jones Punjani …

I wrote this article for The Bloom Forum blog last month. I feel very passionate about it and wanted to post it here on my own blog as well. Older kids and Mom’s camera don’t always coexist peacefully but I’m here to tell you that you can foster a peaceful relationship between them … and you should! Read …

The older my kids get, the less I photograph them. Sad, isn’t it? I don’t do it on purpose but we seem to get busier and busier every year and I just don’t think to bring my camera every we go like I used to. This lifestyle project has been one of the only things …

It’s been such a long time since I participated in this project and I’ve missed it. I’m so happy to be able to jump in this month and join these extremely talented women in this beautiful monthly project. My husband and I have been talking about taking our kids to Europe for almost 20 years to …

It seems like ages since I posted for this lifestyle project that began several years ago. But it’s a project that’s close to my heart because sometimes it’s the only thing that motivates me to pull out the big camera and shoot my own family and our little life story. Sometimes my family only gets …

More from this fabulously fun session with my sister and her family… My very favorite:
We just got home from an action packed July 4th week with my mom and my sister, Jennifer and her family in Utah. As I do every year, I took their family portraits. What I love most about them is their willingness to be creative and do something out of the ordinary. Last year, you may …
I’ve been fortunate to have had amazing clients through the years. Dads are notorious for shunning the family portrait session but I can honestly say that I haven’t had a single father who fit that stereotype. So to all the dads out there that have been in front of my lens at one time or …

What Spring Break Looks Like is this month’s theme. We spent our break in Maui this year, our favorite spot to vacation. It might have been our last spring break together as the six of us. I’m posting far too many photos this month and believe it or not, this is just a smidgen …

One of my favorite parts of vacation is sleeping in late. We all enjoyed a few extra hours of sleep last week in Maui. Here’s a peek at what life looked like in the morning toward the end of our trip.
I love this photograph of my husband’s grandfather and his family. This was the beginning of World War I. When I look at their faces, it makes me wonder what life was like for them back then. What were their thoughts, their worries, their plans? What would they have thought of the world today? …
This week’s Throw Back Thursday post is the oldest photograph in the bunch. It’s dated back to 1895 (the year the world’s very first movie theater opened in Paris). I love it not only because it’s old but because the look on these kids’ faces are similar to my kids when I ask them for a …
