  • Having your newborn baby photographed: Q&A

  • My thoughts – about my photography.

    Photographing for over two decades, my photography has been a living breathing thing that is sometimes very controlled and at times very out of control.    Sometimes my style is a mirror of how I’m feeling for the day, and at times it brings me back to my photograph with “rules.”  I know some photographers…

  • Always a great time for family portraits.

    From retro to classic, indoors and out – there really isn’t a bad time for family portraits or portraits of your children.  Each session can be custom to whatever you love most at the moment.  It’s ALWAYS a good thing to indulge in enjoyable recollection of past events. For some really special packages you don’t…

    This morning the Rosales family brought in their brand new baby girl Peyton and her big sister Makiah.  Peyton was 13 days old today, and although she was actually awake for most of the session – she hardly made a peep.  Finally – right at the end of the session she relaxed off to dreamland…

  • Maternity and Newborn Portraits

    It doesn’t matter if you’re shy or outgoing, I create a warm, comfortable environment where you may wear as much or as little clothing as you like. Children, husbands, partners and pets are optional. I love photographing them all. Plan your maternity session between 6 and 10 weeks before your due date. If you’re closer,…
