I had the privilege of photographing a shoot for the very talented Amy Stoeckle. Amy is an amazing florist with many years of experience in the wedding industry. She creates true art out of flowers and her knowledge is extensive. Here’s what she has to say about flowers on a wedding day… When it comes […]
Six weeks ago, Evelyn Grace joined this sweet family. Three babies under five, is something amazing. Their hands are certainly full, but they’re busy with what they love most. The older two are just starting to realize that Evelyn is here to stay. I spent the morning with the five of them. It was a […]
It’s almost here. Seven is so close. Tomorrow he’ll no longer be six. We’ve been spending Monday afternoons together. Just the two of us. Yesterday, I took the opportunity to photograph him as six, one last time. I also asked him some questions. These were his responses… What’s your favorite color? “Black!” What’s your best […]
I just had the pleasure of photographing two faces that I absolutely adore. I cherish the couple of times each year, when my sister and nephew visit from Chicago. (we missed the Papa this time!) Her days are devoted to caring for her precious boy, and nurturing his extensive imagination. I couldn’t be more proud […]
We had an awesome year, despite the fact that it ended with all three kids in the ER on the same day. Yes, we did spend Christmas day in the hospital with our baby recovering from surgery. But, every experience teaches you something, and now I’m even more grateful for each day with my children. […]

Six, three, and one. Our one bath house is starting to feel a little too cozy. This may be the last Christmas in our first home, but we’ll take the memories with us in the form of photos. Lifestyle photography is my new love. This is how every morning starts for him. When the kids […]
In a couple of weeks, the Jamison family will be trading their home in Grass Valley, for a new one in the Philippines. It was a joy to capture smiles, giggles, and even some tears. But, the tears were forgotten once they began their cookie picnic, on a beautiful vineyard. Dan, Rachel, Ansel and Willow, we’ll […]
It’s so fun to see my first published shoot make the cover! I had a great time creating a Christmas inspired styled shoot, with Storybook Wedding Design & Management. I know it still feels like summer in Nevada County, but Christmas is in fact just around the corner. Stonehouse Brewery in Nevada City, provided the […]
Two years and two days apart. We have a lot to celebrate in September. The majority of each day is spent caring for these little ones. At one and three, most people think I have my hands full. I would have to agree. But how could I want it any other way? You’ll know what […]
