Taking family photos for friends is always something I enjoy, but this one was a little *extra* fun. Shot at a family property in Shafter, this session went so well! The sun set beautifully over the orchard trees and vineyard, but the real standout was getting to watch Seth and Elizabeth interact with one another, […]

It’s time for some previews for my dear friends, the Harmans. The Harman family are some of the most genuine people I’ve met. They’re hospitable, kind, generous, and fun. They make time for countless people in the community and their church. Rossely has become a dear friend since we both have boys around the same […]

I have to say that I’m quite nervous about today’s post. It’ll either be a hit, or a flop, haha. Addy is the absolute SWEETEST senior, and she specially requested a glowy edit to her photos. It was really fun pushing my creative limits to edit these for her. The sunset at Hart Park that […]

Sophie and Andrew are the best people, and it’s obvious that they’re the reason their children are the wonderful people they are. To the Taylor family, I hope you love your pictures this […]

Seeing two people become parents for the first time is one of the many special parts of life. The exhaustion and daze of it all melts when that baby […]

Hart Park for Mother’s Day photos? Yes pleaseee! Have you ever thought of booking a photoshoot with your family as a gift for your mom? It is SUCH a good idea. Moms are constantly taking photos but rarely get to be in them. It’s a stereotype that is all too true. When one of these […]

One of my favorite parts of this job is the variety of things I get to shoot. When Maggie reached out to me to ask if I could take photos of her daughter playing piano, I got so excited! If you know me, you know my dad owns a music store, and I’ve grown up […]

Lifestyle newborn sessions are always so sweet. There’s nothing quite like a scrunchy and adorable little one who commands all the attention. Sweet little Asa was born to his parents, Suhaytie and Tim, and he and mama certainly went through a lot to get him here. Because of a difficult and unexpected birth journey, this […]

If you look at all my blog posts, you might remember that last year I did a wedding for the sweeetessstttt couple–Jami and Derric. Their son Caleb is now a senior, and having known him since we were both kids, it’s surreal thinking of him being so mature now. Caleb has big aspirations of being […]

I’ve taken photos for the Force family a couple of times now, and this session was quite a bit sweeter than the previous ones. This session, after all, was with their newest addition–Avella Kay. She is the tiniest bundle of adorable baby goodness. From her toes to all the folds of her skin, she is […]
