Today I want to do something fun. Kind of like those fun little surveys that we used to pass around on Myspace (remember that place?) back in the day.

Ask me. Anything. You can ask me about my style, my equipment, my history of how I got into photography, editing, or just about me in general. I will choose some of the questions and share the answers on my blog. Don’t be shy….my feelings will be hurt if I hear crickets in my inbox haha

Email them to me!

I have been in Riverside for nearly 3 weeks now, and while still very busy, not actually shooting much. I’ve been behind the computer editing wedding photos, a couple of portrait sessions and designing albums. We really only know one family down here and bless their hearts, they’ve been doing a great job of entertaining us! So, when my photography itch got especially bad, I emailed my friend and asked to do a few photos of her 2 year old daughter, Cambria. We went to Irvine Park in Orange and Amy insisted that I bring my son (who, while adorable, is a hindrance to my photo taking. haha) I felt bad keeping Reid away from a zoo and park, so I brought him with me. It was a hot day, the kids were hungry and only interested in playing on the jungle gym. I managed to pull Cambria aside for a few moments and snagged these shots. I’m not kidding, I had her for maybe 3 minutes before it was back to the playground and we called it a day. I was pleasantly surprised with what I came up with in such a short time, and of course, major kudos to Cambria for being a willing subject! Talk about a successful “mini session”!

I am excited to offer a full day of portraits for all of my lovely Sacramento area clients! I will be at the Jensen Botanical Garden on Sunday, September 26th beginning at 12 noon. Sessions will be 1 hour and booked back to back, so please call or email ASAP to reserve your slot. The cost is a flat rate of $200 for the session, a disk of approximately 40-50 images, two 8×10 and two 5×7 prints, as well as 25 holiday cards with your choice of template! These templates are not your “usual” cards – they are geared specifically to showcase your photos. Additional sets of 25 cards can be purchased for $35.

Can’t wait to see you all!!

Marci was my last shoot before our move to Riverside. I warned her that it might take a me a bit longer than normal to get her photos back to her since we had to pack, move, un-pack….you know, all of the lovely things that come along with a 7 hour move. She assured me that it didn’t matter to her as long as we did her shoot! Marci is quite possibly the most patient person I’ve ever met. Thank you!

It was our last Sunday in Folsom and I decided to take them to Ancil Hoffman Park in Carmichael - a first for me. Enjoy your family portraits, Marci, and thank you for allowing me to be your photographer!

Do her boys look familiar? I did baby K’s newborn photos when he was just a few days old!
