I ? this family! What a fun session!! We laughed a lot. I got embarrassed so we laughed some more. You can see the love this family has for each other. It just pours out of them. Mom and Dad have worked for years to raise their family and have two beautiful grandchildren now too! You can see their session here. I loved how these pictures came out. If only every session was as fun and easy as this! Stay tuned for another post with this family and the evolution of a large family picture! It is hysterical!
Been doing lots of siblings as of late…. fun but also difficult! But these two cuties were so sweet and camera happy!
More like wild wild boys! This session was one of my favorite from last year. These boys and dad were so much fun. We laughed a lot and jump around, climbed barbed wire and played on train tracks! What more can you ask for? Oh yeah- they were REALLY REALLY funny too. Here is a little glimpse of our great day!
WoW Wow Wow. Busy Busy Busy. No time to say all the wonderful things that I want to about this amazing family!! Just look at how precious he is! Remember him from this session? Take a look at him now!

I am a firm believer that belly pictures are to be treasured and remembered. It is something so fleeting, though it feels so long during the 9 months,you really NEED to capture the moments!
When I was pregnant with my son I started the “You know you are REALLY pregnant when….” jokes.
My fav:
“You know you are really pregnant when you spit out the tooth paste extra far to miss your shirt… but don’t.”
” You know you are really pregnant when you yell for your 3 year old and they quietly answer from somewhere below you.”
“You know you are really pregnant when the ice cream man stops at your house and waits for you to notice him…”
The great thing about these… most come from personal experience! I have loads more but that is another post all together!!
On to this amazing mama! The 411: They met in Guatemala where she worked as a dietitian and he a Physicians Assistant. Many many attempts later they dated and fell in love. Fast forward 5 years and hello Amador County.
I can not wait to take this baby’s pictures. His mama is stunning and daddy is a surfer so the combo is perfect o, No? I’m thinking a tan- dark- haired -fair -skinned surfer! Love it!
I have to say that I really love where I live (minus my mother not living here). Everywhere you look there are beautiful views and we actually have seasons! Yes, in California! Right now all the trees are almost done changing colors and it’s getting a little barren. But as soon as the rain starts it will be green where I live and snow just 15 min up the mountain! It’s fun. Well, actually I really hate the cold. I think that 78* year round is pretty much ideal. What can I say? You can take the girl out of Southern California but you can’t take the Southern California out of the girl!
That being said- when I moved here I found this fantastic neighbor and her family. At the time her “baby” was just 3 months old! Now that baby is so grown up and about to be a big sister this summer! So easy going and fun. I can’t wait for the belly session, the birth session, the newborn session…. etc! I can’t wait for it all!!
In Amador County we are blessed to have a wide range of activities to do. We have the wine country, the back country, up country and the country country. Yesterday we visited the wine country and the Amador Flower Farm where we took Maverick to the pumpkin patch for the first time. What fun! I love pictures of my kids with pumpkins. I don’t know what it is but they just look so sweet and earthy! Maverick is such a stud too. He loves to have his picture taken. Which is NOT normal for a photographers kids. Most photographers will tell you that their children hate loath can’t stand to have their picture taken really prefer not to have mom taking their picture a lot. My kids happen to really like it… when they are not crying.
The Lady Killer
What a great night out in the city. My husband Steve and this guy work for Sac City Fire. This is his soon to be wife, a ER nurse at UC Davis. Yes- a firefighter and a nurse. Perfect right?
Well they are! So so fun and so so sweet. If only every session was this easy and every couple this hot sweet for each other. Good thing the wedding is on a tropical island!
So here ya go soon to be Mr. and Mrs. R. I had a really hard time picking just a few teasers so there are more than usual!
I love it when my friends have babies and I get to photographer them! It is so special to hear them say how much they love this picture or that picture. It is rare to truly give someone something that touches them. And I know how a wonderful shot that captures my child’s spirit moves me so I love doing that for others!
Photography is such a rewarding craft. People are always thanking me for taking their pictures and I almost always reply with “No- Thank YOU!” It is a creative out for me and really makes me feel great too. So really I am a photographer for very selfish reasons!
So here is my dear friend of 20 years (YES I SAID 20 YEARS!!) and her amazingly beautiful family. Are they really THAT gorgeous you ask? Yes. Yes they are.
Did I mention that when this baby was 2 weeks old, his big sister who is not yet 2 BROKE her LEG!! Yep. Broke. In a big hot pink cast… yep. Here it is Mama: Your life when Baby C was 2 weeks. A Newborn and a toddler lugging around a cast to her thigh… YOU ARE AMAZING MOTHER.
