Go-Getter

This year kicked off with one of my dearest families as they welcomed Baby Grant to this world. Earth side at 3 weeks, this little go-getter arrived more than 6 weeks early and has already stolen the hearts of so many. His two big brothers in particular are his biggest fans and are fiercely protective […]

Welcome, Baby Rose

This is why I love documentary photography. It’s not only a visual journal for families, but it’s also a way of preserving all the emotions that come with it – even the ones found in the most vulnerable of moments. And to that, I’m incredibly thankful to be capturing this precious time as they welcome […]

Baby Kase

I’m so grateful to have not only captured those first tender days of Baby Kase, but of his older brother too. They were both born into a family full of warmth, love, and laughter.

It takes me back many moons ago when I was expecting my first child. I […]

Baker Beach

Two back-to-back family photo sessions. I’m thoroughly soaked with sand everywhere. I would say that’s a mark of a morning well spent, and I’m still smiling from it.

Live Ardently

My vision as a family photographer is to celebrate what it means to be a family. By that, I mean really embracing all aspects of it for better or worse and artfully documenting it. This is why newborn sessions are my favorite. Thanks to the likes of sleep deprivation, they’re honest and humbling, yet still […]

Sunday Morning with the M Family – Home Session, San Francisco

Homemade french toast, Moana songs, an impromptu CrossFit workout, a head collision on the bed, deep breaths, more Moana, sidesplitting laughter, and of course that itty bitty baby with the biggest brown eyes. Love is definitely overflowing here and I can’t imagine a better family to welcome me back into the swing of things. Thank […]
