Creating a Playful Nursery

As a newborn photographer, I LOVE getting the opportunity to see so many different nursery styles. It's so beautiful the way that parents choose to put personal touches in their baby's room. Every nursery I've seen has its own personality and uniqueness. My sweet friend...

A Mothers Experience with IVF

Before beginning IVF, Tina and her husband were so anxious to start a family that they actually decided to start trying to have a baby two months before they got married. Why not get a jump start, right? Little did they know they were headed...

Follow your heart.

From life happenings to babies to coffee and beyond, itโ€™s just a tiny peek into the daily life of a Bay Area newborn photographer.

Obligatory family photo for turkey day ๐Ÿฆƒ๐Ÿ I Obligatory family photo for turkey day ๐Ÿฆƒ๐Ÿ

I am cooking dinner tonight for a small but lovely crowd. Our family wishes yours a happy thanksgiving. I hope you are taking the day to spend with family and friends.

To give myself a little breather- Iโ€™m only accepting two more new bookings for the remainder of this year. If youโ€™re already booked with me and waiting for your session date then youโ€™re all set- but if youโ€™re still looking for a photographer before 2024 then now is the time to reach out. โค๏ธโ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹

If Iโ€™m not available for your session this year donโ€™t panic. I have a handful of photographers that I will happily refer you to, so donโ€™t hesitate to reach out even if Iโ€™m fully booked for that referral list!

My Riley Wren being wild as ever. Confession: I My Riley Wren being wild as ever. 

Confession: I may be a photographer but I ALWAYS prefer to hire out for our family portraits. Why? Because as a mom I know itโ€™s next to impossible to get the entire family smiling for a photo. Because wrangling my kids is sheer exhaustion. Because the kids would never want to look at a camera on a timer. Because it feels nice to be the client and not the photographer. Because I deeply value those photos where we can be in the moment together, unforced and candid, and that I can treasure for forever. 

So take it from the photographer- donโ€™t just have grandma snap the photo or set a selfie timer. I mean, do that too, but also, hire the dang photographer. You will never regret the peace of mind that comes when you hire a professional.

For some the pressure to to publicly respond to global events may feel overwhelming. For me, itโ€™s never really been a choice I had to waiver much on. I stand up and will always show up for humanity today and every day. I have no shame in sharing that I am a imperfect human who doesnโ€™t always know it all, but what I will never waiver on are my beliefs and humanity. As a mother and as a business owner that works with parents daily, and just as a human, I am heartbroken and deeply disturbed by the news and public responses to the war in Israel. Iโ€™ve personally been stuck in consuming the misinformation, construed responses, everything from selfish to downright hateful rhetoric, and then deafening silence. If you too are stuck in this- I feel you, I see you, and my heart aches for you too. ๐Ÿ’”

I was suppose to release my mini sessions sign-up at the start of this week but instead Iโ€™ve waited a little longer. Asking people to sign up for family photos felt like it could take the back seat for a few days while we all grieve. If youโ€™re like me, youโ€™ve been holding your babies real close and could use something positive to look forward to- so Iโ€™ll be emailing out the sign-ups tomorrow morning โœจ

Wednesday we flew into Texas, dropped the kiddos off with their grandparents, and hit the road for a weekend without the kids. We woke up this morning in Fayetteville, Arkansas (our college alma mater town) with a house full of friends. Excited for a weekend with a little nostalgia as we head to a football game and enjoy some child free time. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿˆ๐Ÿ—
