Welcome!

Remember Miss Sydney?  Well she has a little brother and sister.  Payton and Andrew are twins.  They are 6 years old and I’ve known them since before they were born.  I’m a little mad that they’re growing up so fast because that makes me feel old! Check out these sassy little ones. No question…. ALL. […]

The Millers are another special family with some special challenges.  I’ve known them for many years.  I met Laura through work years ago and have had the opportunity to photograph them a few times.  I can’t believe how big the boys have gotten! Laura is an amazing artist.  You can see more of her work […]

Not all of you know this, but my older brother was born with Spina Bifida and is in a wheelchair.  People sometimes ask me what that was like growing up, but I never know how to answer that.  It’s definitely a different way to grow up, but I didn’t know any different. So, kids with […]

I’ve known Syndey… well… really since before she was born!  I think I took my first photo of her when she was about 9 months old.  Her mom, Caroline is the one I work on beach towels with. Sydney faces a lot of challenges.  She is blind and autistic.  I know, quite a combo.  But […]

The first time I met Tessa, she was in her mama’s belly.  The second time, she was only a few days old and just as cute as a button! It’s hard to believe she’s already a year old!  I was so excited to get to photograph her 1st Birthday party. Here’s the Birthday girl!   […]

The other day I posted the photos of the Williams family at Disneyland.  At the time they were excitedly waiting for the arrival of little Tessa.  Well she’s here!!!!! Now can you imagine how much fun it was for a mom of 3 boys, who’s favorite color is pink, to decorate a nursery for a […]

When Jennifer called me about doing a family photo shoot at Disneyland, she said it would either be a ton of fun or a complete disaster!  Fortunately it was a blast!  I don’t know how these parents do it.  And if chasing after 6 year old triplets and running a bakery wasn’t enough, they’re adding one […]

Kids grow so quickly.  That’s why I’m sure this little one is probably a foot taller since we did this shoot a few months ago! This family was such a blessing to photograph.  The daddy of this little peanut is one great husband!  He gave his wife a gift certificate for a family shoot with […]

Have you ever noticed that people (OK mostly women) just seem to stand around and stare at a newborn baby sleep?  It’s like we’re mesmerized and can’t take our eyes off, both in wonder and in anticipation that she might yawn or move a little.  Even the slightest movement gets oohs and ahs.  Last week […]
