This January one my favorite clients, a family I have been photographing since 2007, contacted me to create a gallery from all of their sessions for their new playroom wall. I couldn’t wait to take on this project. I knew it would turn into a wall of joy because that is who they are as…

My baby’s all grown up! Ty turns eighteen today.

It was one crazy day, that day my first child was born. I was seventeen years old, I had no idea what I was doing. That first night at home, exhausted from my delivery, with him crying every thirty minutes, I wondered what on earth I was doing.  How on earth was I going to…

Gone to “The Lake”.

Growing up in Minnesota means summers at “the Lake”. We don’t say, “We’re going to Long Lake.” or “We’ve gone to Big Sand Lake.” We all say and understand “We’ve ‘Gone to the Lake’ ” One of my favorite photos of all time is of a big red barn, in the middle of being painted….

Photo of the Day: Super-Oliver in Milwaukee.

My brother has some seriously cute kids. We must just have good genes, eh? Mr. Oliver is a funny guy, reminds me of my eldest, Ty, when he was six. I love being able to capture my brother’s family every year in their annual family photo session; this year’s was in Milwaukee at the park…

Photo of the Day: On a wagon ride in Cupertino, CA

I love being a children’s photographer for many reasons. One of them is the spontaneous fun kids have just being, well, kids! These twin sisters in San Jose provide me with a whole session of crazy girly fun fun fun every single year. They are a constant crack-up.  

Photo of the day: A little boy’s dream fort.

One of my favorite families in San Jose, CA, I’ve been photographing this cutie since he was a baby. He now has a little brother and a little sister on the way. His daddy did some awesome research and got them the coolest swing set from Cedar Works, which is the playground company I dream…

Beautiful gallery of a beautiful boy.

When clients commission us for portraits they are not just hiring a photographer to capture some images of their kids and family, they are taking the first step toward beautiful art for their home. This lovely wall gallery was exactly what she was looking for when we began the process. Isn’t it sweet?

Pretty little ladies. Bay Area kid’s photography.

These sweet sisters sure made me smile. There was plenty of joy to capture! I think I have a photo somewhere of my sister and I playing piano; so classic. When I travel from Milwaukee to San Jose for photo sessions, I never know what kind of joy I am going to find, but I…

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…
