The funny thing is that most of motherhood changes gradually.
No big announcement.
No clear ending.
Just one season quietly becoming the next.

A photo session doesn’t stop time.
But twenty minutes together in beautiful light in a special garden can preserve the details you’ll miss most.

The reach of your hand when she needs safety. 
The way she still fits perfectly in your arms

My own two kids are about to have birthdays, so I am thinking a lot now about how this age doesn’t announce when it’s leaving.

What’s one thing that your child does today that you wish you could freeze forever?

Currently booking motherhood, family, and maternity portrait sessions throughout Sacramento, Roseville, Davis, Napa Valley, and Northern California.

🌷The rose garden is still going strong, so reach out to reserve your session there or at other blooming flower farms this summer.🌸

Graduation photos aren’t really about graduation.
They’re about the years and dedication it took to get here. 


The early mornings.
The difficult exams.
The friendships that see you through. 

The discovery of the person you’ve become along the way.

That’s what I see when I photograph seniors.

Congratulations to Grace on her graduation from . She’s kind, ambitious, and it is obvious that she is the kind of person who makes everyone around her feel welcome.

Class of 2027, my calendar for next spring will open before you know it. Join my mailing list to be the first to hear when senior portrait dates are released. ✉️

Strength. If there was only one word I could use to tell the story of this mama and her beautiful girl.

In the early days of motherhood, oftentimes uncertainty weighs equally to delight. The tenderness of holding a child who was born a fighter. I am in awe of the strength of the bond that tethered this new family. It was palpable when I met them.

Sometimes a session is more than beautiful pictures, and this was certainly one of those times that I feel immense gratitude to be let into a family’s story.

Klara this spring with her baby girl, medium format film and digital capture.

There’s so many beautiful photos from this spring family session I just wanted to share a couple more.

I always tell clients that it’s better to coordinate colors vs. match outfits for family photos. I love how these colors and floral patterns play so well together with a backdrop of wildflowers and spring grass.

When you book a session with me, you will be sent my seasonal style guide that shows you ideas for outfits in various color schemes. It’s one less thing to worry about when you’re preparing for a family session. ✨

One thing I wish I could tell every parent thinking about booking their first photography session is this:

Invest in memories that matter. Be in the photos now— even if you feel like it’s not the right time, you want to wait until things calm down, when you feel more put together.

I promise you that catching life as it is now will feel so much more valuable to you than waiting for the right moment.

You don’t have to know how to do anything in front of the camera except show up as yourself. I will guide you to make you feel comfortable, and let your kids reveal their real personalities for the camera. So many times, the words I hear at the end of a session are:

That was actually so fun!

We forgot we were making pictures and we were just being ourselves.

You managed to catch the in-between times that we didn’t even realize were happening.

Why did I wait?

I’m not going to lie, golden hour in spring with a glowing, brilliant family is nothing short of spectacular. I am so grateful this beautiful family trusted me to show who they are and reveal the magic in their connections to each other.
