I really love doing family sessions but I will be honest, sometimes I get myself all worked up before doing them. I always stress about whether or not I will be able to win them over, if it’s just going to be chaos. I don’t know why because it always turns out great but I […]

Never would I have thought I would be taking these photos for Marc and Melanie, but not for the reason you think. I first met Marc in middle school. We had a few classes together and honestly at the time, I couldn’t stand him, haha! He bugged me all the time in class, I couldn’t […]

This is the Garcia Family. They are the cutest people ever I have decided. I took their family photos back in 2018 and they were some of my favorite family photos ever and I was worried how I would top those, totally ridiculous! These guys were serious troopers! We met in a canyon close by […]

‘Lavenders blue dilly dilly, lavenders green”. I know if you’re a Cinderella fan you sang that in your head as you read it! This session was of my friend Lauren, she is cooler than cool and I just adore her. We were good friends in high school and kind of lost touch with each other […]
