Here lies a roundup of personal photographs I took in the month of September. Enjoy.
Every now and again, I add a new lens to my arsenal. I mainly shoot with prime lenses, which are fixed at one focal length (read: no zoom!). I was photographing a recital for Luna Dance Studio in Palo Alto, so I decided it was time to add a zoom to my growing collection. I’m […]
Soooo I was scheduling blog posts and realized I had never blogged this mini session from last fall which is a shame because this family was super nice! They had recently moved to Palo Alto from the midwest and were wanting to get family photos done for their holiday cards. We originally were going to […]
After I came back from The Family Narrative I really thought about where my heart was in terms of family photography and the work I do. At the very heart of it, I found that what I felt calling me was really telling the stories of families. While I do love doing one hour sessions, […]
I have a friend who’s a doula, Lauren Noble, that refers clients to me every once in a while. When she referred the W family and I spoke with Marjorie during our pre-session consult, I knew it was going to be a great session. The family is expecting a baby girl (right around now, actually!) […]
Last week I posted baby Liam’s Fresh 48 newborn session at Washington hospital. This week, I’m sharing his in-home newborn lifestyle session. This session was taken a couple of weeks after the first session and the family had some time to get used to each other a bit and settle into their new dynamic. I […]
Last month I posted a mini slideshow of an in-home session I did for a sweet family in Palo Alto. M & G’s parents wanted some great pictures of their girls that weren’t taken with an iPhone and really captured their personalities at this moment in their lives. I seriously love taking photos of children […]
I met Shannon through a local Fremont moms Facebook group. Her son Ripley was diagnosed with a congenital heart defect and needed surgery and she wanted to have some photos taken before and after the surgery to document such a huge event. We agreed that an in-home family lifestyle session sounded like the right setting […]
The more in-home sessions I do, the more I fall in love with them. There’s just something so intimate about photographing a family in the place they spend most of their time together. A place few people are invited into. The Jain family contacted me about doing a session with their new son in their […]
It’s kind of embarrassing how long it’s taken me to blog about this session. The truth is, this might be one of my absolutely favorite sessions ever. Because ice cream. And that yellow wall. I mean, amiright?! I’ve been photographing the Smith family for, oh, maybe 4 years now? Even though I’ve moved to the […]
