Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. “A”. I have known this groom and his family for years. I was so excited when he asked me to photograph his wedding. I love being able to preserve a moment not seen by everyone or that maybe forgotten in time.

Olson Family Session
Had the privilege of capturing this family session last weekend. It was a nice spring day in a beautiful little garden.
Christopher’s Senior Session
Last weekend I had the privilege to photograph Christopher’s graduation portraits. It was a beautiful day for portraits in Old Sacramento.
Mr. & Mrs. Taylor
It is always an honor to be apart of a wedding but, this wedding was extra special because I was hired by the maid of honor as her gift to the bride and groom. Rick and Mioshi expected to just show up and say “I do”.
The maid of honor wasn’t the only one with a surprise. The church planned a reception meal after the wedding. It was a great celebration! Afterwards we went to a park for a few portraits.
Caleb & Kendra’s Wedding
Caleb & Kendra were married outside on a ranch in Capay. The willow trees made the perfect backdrop to this outdoor wedding. Kendra looked amazing in her blush pink dress and pink converses. I am so grateful that I was able to capture their big day. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for these two.
Introducing baby Hayden
Earlier this year I did a maternity session for Mommy. At that time Mom and Dad were deciding between two names. They revealed their choice after she was born.
On Thursday March 31st Hayden Marcelina was born. She was a healthy baby weighing in at 11 lbs. 6 oz. 22 1/2 inches long. Mommy and baby are doing good.
Ethan Turns 1!
In March Ethan celebrated his 1st birthday . He is such a happy, loving, and care free little boy. His big brother carries him around everywhere and his older sister loves making him laugh. He just started taking steps and saying his first words (da, yeah, no, and mamma).
The weather was beautiful and the lighting was great. Such a fun day to take pictures and be outside in the sun. During this shoot he loved looking at his reflection in the mirror and pulling his hat off. He also loved squishing his cake between his toes.
