She’s spent years celebrating her kids in front of my camera, so this time, we celebrated her. ❤️

For her 35th birthday, Rosie came into the studio for a portrait session all her own — red silk, red lipstick, and the sweetest old-fashioned birthday cake.

Because your birthday deserves more than a cake and a candle. It deserves to be remembered. ✨

Happy 35th to this beautiful mama and returning friend. I’m so glad you let me celebrate you this time. 🥂

One year of sweetness 🤍🎂

There’s something about a first birthday cake smash — tiny hands, messy little smiles, and the “how did you get so big?” feeling. 🥹

My cozy studio is perfect for simple, beautiful birthday portraits without the stress of getting everyone out for a big production.

Now booking cake smash sessions in the Bay Area ✨

A little time with friends, captured in the studio 🤍

My sweet friend came to visit from out of town with her kids, and of course we had to make some photos while they were here. I love getting to photograph the people I love in a way that feels natural, simple, and true to them.

These are the moments I’ll always want to remember. ✨

I donated a photo session to the school auction committee and have loved meeting new families who bought the session with me. I love capturing peoples portraits and going to scenic locations like these rolling Hills in Martinez. It’s a wonderful opportunity to support the school while making Photoshoot accessible to more people at the same time.

I highly recommend getting your family photos taken with me or supporting your school auction by donating a session! I have short mini sessions coming up soon. Check out my bio to book the Petite session with me!

Hi, I’m Athena 🤍

Photographer, mom, and lover of beautiful locations.

Based near Martinez and Pleasant Hill, I photograph families, couples, maternity, newborns, milestones, weddings, and elopements throughout the Bay Area.

Give me a coastline, redwood grove, rolling hills, or a cute San Francisco street and I’m happy.

You don’t need to know how to pose—I’ve got you.

She thought the proposal wasn’t happening.

After years together, they returned to San Francisco—the city where their story began—for a weekend anniversary trip. She was convinced the proposal would happen at lunch. When it didn’t, she quietly accepted that it probably wasn’t happening that day.

Instead, he led her through one of San Francisco’s most beautiful hidden spots beneath the cypress trees.

A few moments later, he was down on one knee!

The best part wasn’t the proposal itself. It was watching the realization wash over her face that this was the moment she’d been waiting for.

Congratulations to these two. 🤍

Planning a proposal in San Francisco? I’d love to help you create and capture the moment.
