I get this question often: What colors work well with newborn photographs? For newborn photographs I believe generally, lighter solid colors are great. I love moms in neutral colors, white is always great, but anything in the light pastel range. Dads look great in button down shirts. Be mindful of shirts with logos, those can […]

I love family photography. This might be my favorite family photography session of all times. I am honestly not sure who is the cutest, the baby? The dog? All of them together? I really couldn’t tell you. I love that this family has so much zest, and so much personality. My favorite shots aren’t the […]

Oliver is a great example of why portraits at 8 months are so good. Besides the fact that he is so dang cute. Oliver is sitting up, but not running away just yet!! He could crawl towards me, he laid on his back and played with his toes. Basically all the baby goodness without the […]

Hollis is a really special baby to me. I’ve known her parents for a really long time and her mom is a good friend. I shot Maryam’s maternity pictures, which I’ll be posting a bit later, when she was about a week away from delivery. During our session she was asking what I thought about […]

My first time shooting floral double exposures with a maternity session and I was blown away!! Jacqueline was already coming over for a maternity session. I asked her if she would mind doing something a bit experimental and if we could add in some florals. I’m so glad we did, because this might be my […]

Just a reminder! Christmas is 3 months away!!! We still have Halloween, and Thanksgiving… but it is exactly the right time to schedule holiday photos. I know it is something that is so easy to put off, and not think about until the week before Christmas, BUT, GET THEM SCHEDULED EARLY!! View my previous post: […]

Really I should call this post “My love affair with film,” because that’s really what it is. I learned on film. I started shooting when I was 11, in the seventh grade (yes I was 11, and turned 12 in the 7th grade.) I spent hours in the dark room, it was my happy place. […]

After newborns, the eight month mark is my next favorite time to do portraits. It is right around that time that they can sit up, but they aren’t walking yet. They’ll play with their feet, wiggle their toes. At 8ish months, they definitely already have a personality, they’re laughing, trying to talk, and can read […]

Here’s another little girl I’ve known for all her five years! Ami Salami. She’s a gem. This girl brightens anyone’s day. She has the biggest heart and the biggest smile. She also has a very hard time choosing a wardrobe. Hahaha, there were about 6 outfits to pick from this day, and we landed on […]
