Redwood City, CA Mini Session Photographer: The fun guys

Oh boy! Where do I start with these guys? I mean, really – whenever L and family are around I know there will be laughter, and sarcasm, and silly faces. Our last photo session didn’t fail to deliver. M was awesome with his Star Wars bow-tie and Converse. And that raised eye-brow. Boy means business!

Redwood City, CA Mini Session Photographer: Ready for #2

You might remember J and her family from a long, long time ago. M was one of the first kids I ever photographed. I won’t share that post with you, but you’ll get extra points if you find it yourself 🙂

I was super excited to hear from J and family again. She’s expecting, and I loved spending some time photographing the belly.

Redwood City, CA Mini Session Photographer: Oh boy, boy, boy

J and I used to work together. He is one of my favorite lunch buddies, and karaoke entertainers. I was super excited to photograph his family this holiday season, because his boys are awesome. And look at little K – tell me you don’t want to snuggle those baby cheeks.

Bay Area Photographer: October In My Corner of the World

C’mon, it’s October. Can you possibly be surprised that my post this month will be about pumpkins? Of course not!

In all honesty, this month has been an amazing month. There’s been a bit of change for us, on a personal front with me starting a new job, but I took two me-cation weeks and it was incredible! I spent days alone, reconnecting with… well… me, doing activities I’ve wanted to for years, and even doing some of those pesky chores around the house you want some peace and quiet for. I feel accomplished, and exercises, and enriched. Did I take photos of those events? Eh — not really, but trust me. It was remarkable, and if I can pull you into my brain right now, I bet you’d feel relaxed too. And this is in a month when I have 18 client sessions on the books!

But like I said… this circle post, is not about that “me” time. It’s about my family time to our annual pumpkin patch visit. Well, really it was our annual photoshoot at the pumpkin patch visit ;p
Turns out the boys couldn’t care less about pumpkins this year. Last year we had to impose a “You can only buy what you can carry” limit (as to not allow our sons to give themselves a hernia). This year? Yeah — they picked ones the size of their fists. So we paid our $1, at the front and enjoyed our trip. Cheap dates, they turned out to be this year.

Foster City, CA Engagement Photographer: Wedding bells

My baby sister is getting married!!! Next year I’ll play doting maid of honor, and stupid-exited big sis, but for now, I get the honor of playing photographer to these two. I don’t get a chance to do engagement portraits often, so when I get this chance, with two hotties, I mean how can I say no?
