I’m so beyond excited for all of the weddings I’ve got scheduled for 2014. It is SUCH a privilege to photograph weddings and I feel so honored whenever a couple asks me to be a part of their big day; I truly love this part of my job. One of the couple’s I’m working with- […]
I’ve said it a million times before, and I’m sure I’ll say it again and again… I love photographing couples. There’s something so much fun about capturing those little moments and little expressions of love between two people. Often times I’m photographing love that is still in it’s early stages; an engaged couple or their […]
Ok. So It’s time for a confession… Before this last August, the last time I paid a photographer to photograph my husband and I was our wedding in 2006. Terrible right? 🙁 I have always intended to have our portraits taken, but good intentions alone rarely yield results. And as supportive as he is in […]
Every summer for the past several years I have hosted a contest for a free session here on my blog. Summer is one of my favorite times of year and the annual contest is just one more thing to love about it! It’s always fun to see who will win and create beautiful images for […]

Recently I met up with Steven and Laila in Fullerton for their Love Story portrait session. While I truly feel that all of the sessions and people I photograph are special, this one has a particular place in my heart. Unlike most of the couples I photograph, Steven and Laila have been together for a […]
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again- I love working with past clients! It’s truly so much fun to photograph these families as they grow! Last month I got to work with the Torres family again. I met them in Huntington Beach at the Central Park & Library to take their family portraits. […]
If you’re a regular reader of my blog, you’ll recall that about a year ago I joined a small Facebook group called Shoot and Meet. Shoot and Meet is a group that organizes events for local photographers every few months to network and photograph each other. At first I was really shy about getting to […]
