  • Welcome to my Blog!

    I am a wife.
    I am a mother.
    I am a sister.
    I am a photographer.

    I am passionate about preserving my family's memories and I would love to help you do the same.  I want you to have pictures that help you remember your child's smile, their laughter, their tears. I want you to have pictures so you can remember the tiny fingers and toes.   I want you to have pictures that show the special bond you have with one another.  I do my photo shoots in locations that are special to you like your neighborhood park, your backyard, your home or anywhere else that brings you joy and comfort.  There are no backdrops or studios.  I shoot lifestyle photography in a casual and relaxed way. 

    Life is too short!

Lindsey-Class of 2010 | Solano County Senior Photographer

I had the pleasure of meeting this young lady yesterday. She defines “beautiful, inside and out”. What a complete sweetie! We had a blast walking and talking while capturing these images. Thank you for a wonderful time! Enjoy your sneak peek!

The Purcell Family | Solano County Family Photographer

The Purcell Family…We braved the chilliness, the completely soaked grass and the crowds at Chrissy Field on Sunday to get these adorable images.   

Riley did not want much to do with the camera, so I constantly searched for good light to just get her in it and then let her do her own thing.  The light right here was magical!  BTW-I love eyelashes!

These of Lauren and Jason happened pretty quickly because I was shooting with Riley on my hip. I was to scared to let her down as we were pretty close to a street.  Yes, I usually am a “mama-bear” at a photosession also.

Bubbles, what would we have done without bubbles that day?!  Isn’t she perfect!  Thank you so much Lauren and Jason for allowing me to capture you family this year!

Jenny & Raed | Solano County Wedding Photographer

I had the fabulous opportunity to shoot with Zach Anderson in San Francisco late in October.  He is a great photographer and as a second shooter, made me feel completely comfortable that day.  I highly recommend him if you are in the San Fran area!  I, of course, started out with the groomsmen and then moved on to meet Zach and the girls/guys for some shots before heading to the ceremony/reception, which was held at the Golden Gate Club, in the Presidio.

 Jenny and Raed decided to do the “first look” which I love. We positioned Raed and with his back turned Jenny walked up to him. They turned to see each other for the first time on their wedding day and these are the shots I took from afar.

   First looks are so great because it gives the couple some “alone” time to soak it all in, with each other, not having to hurry to a reception or hurry to group photos. I love “First Looks”, but I also understand if my brides want to take the traditional route and wait for the first look as you are walking down the aisle.

 

I love this pic and was so excited when I saw it in my lineup.   I know that Jenny had a huge smile on her face as well.

The band was great… I feel awful that I can’t remember the name of them.  If anyone knows these guys, leave their name in my comment section.  Thank you!   I am totally diggin’ the lighting in the band images.

Congratulations Jenny and Raed!  Thank you again, Zach Anderson for allowing me to shoot with you.

Things I Love: January 2010

As part of my quest to be a more frequent blogger this year, this is my first installment of “Things I Love”.  Each month I will feature a few products that I couldn’t live without at this point in my life.  

1.  My new Old Gringo Cowboy Boots.  I bought them on my trip last weekend to Beverly Hills at Boot Star.  A lovely gal, named Chrissy, helped me find the perfect boot.

2.  ”That gal” brightening face primer by Benefit.  I am totally addicted to this stuff.

3.  Sushi…Enough said… Anywhere, anytime.

Kelsey - Going to have to look into number 2! Always love trying out new products!
