So, I’ve been saying, for some time now, that all of the “lucky” people who get free photos from me should start a “waiting forever” support group. No doubt, it’s a great deal to get photos from me without paying the full prices, but the price that gets paid is in waiting . . ….

Watching them grow. San Jose family photographer.
How cool is it, that in these fun photos of adorable boys, you can see the photos from a previous session up on the wall behind them? I love it! Of course, I’ll have to go back again to capture the new display they now have from THIS session. Maybe next year I can take…
Ooooh, pretty! Rolling out some awesome holiday cards.
One thing I really really love about my job is the Christmas card creation process. I plan and think and dream and just really put myself fully into the process of making my family’s card the best it can be. Just as fun (and not nearly as stressful) is the process of helping my wonderful…
Imperfect project: The changing seasons.
One of the things I most missed when we lived in California was the changing of the seasons. Oh, there was a little bit of that in the Bay Area; it got cooler, some of the leaves turned a drab brown and fell to the ground. In the winter, it rained some days and at…
Imperfect Project: I love soup season.
Anyone else just love “soup season” ? Lucky for me, it lasts for a looong time in the Midwest. Something like 9 months!! But after a hot, sticky, soup-free summer, I was beyond stoked to fire up my stock pot and whip up some Greek Avgolemono, or Greek Chicken Lemon soup. Yum yum yummy!! And one…
Time is running out for awesome holiday photos!
I cannot believe how fast this fall is whizzing by! We’re already down to the last handful of slots for custom sessions and only ONE short and sweet space left. Wow. You’ve been meaning to call?? Well, now is the time! ** Update** I told you they would start to book up!
Pure cuteness on the beach in Capitola, CA.
This session, just over the hill from San Jose, CA, was pure fun. This little man was pure fun. His parents were pure fun. Fun!! His mom brought along his milk “drink box” because, she says, he’s a milk kind of guy. I loved it. And the light on the lifeguard tower (I don’t see…
My bubbly-Bug. Underwater photography in Milwaukee.
One of my favorite “professional photographer perks” are the fun “tools” we get to own because, well, we NEED them. And the best of them all was my Ikelite underwater housing. I was lucky enough to buy one from another photographer, so it wasn’t TOO expensive, but it is quite the deal. Because I bought…
Oh, for heaven’s sake! Too stinking cute!! San Jose Children’s photographer.
Imagine my delight when these two little cuties walked up to me at our Short and Sweet at McClellan Ranch. Not only were they cute, but they were sweet little monkeys, too. I just loved them and their beautiful and lovely mama (who, unfortunately, wasn’t being photographed that day. Next time, right?).
The Imperfect Project. A caserole for my neighbor and friend.
Last Wednesday was a big day for my friend and neighbor, Jill. It was the day that nine months of waiting was rewarded with the arrival of sweet little Poppy, her fourth beautiful baby. Like most births, it really began the day before. I saw Jill that morning, when we swapped preschoolers for a playdate….
