Happy Thanksgiving from my family to yours! Wishin Happy Thanksgiving from my family to yours! Wishing you and your family a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with joy, gratitude, and moments of togetherness. I extend my heartfelt thanks to all my return and new clients for supporting my small creative business. Your trust and collaboration mean the world to me.

It's been an honor being a part of your moments, and I look forward to creating more memories together in the future.

This year has been marked by many ‘firsts’ for This year has been marked by many ‘firsts’ for me, and one of these significant moments was being entrusted with the task of photographing Maya’s senior portraits. She’s a beautiful young girl who, in many ways, brought back memories of my own youth. Admittedly, the concept of senior portraits as a niche is somewhat unfamiliar to me, having not experienced high school in the States, and I won’t pretend otherwise. What I am certain of, however, was my intention to capture the essence of Maya—her youth and innocence, the nuanced maturity of adolescence, her strength and confidence, and her passion for soccer. My intention was to craft memories that, when Maya wakes up one day, will serve as a poignant reminder of these carefree days—when everything in life seems possible, and the pursuit of dreams is paramount. Maya, I extend my heartfelt thanks for inspiring me and igniting a desire within me to create more senior portraits. . . . . . . . . . . . #rivercityhighschool #westsacramentophotographer #sacramentoseniorphotographer #seniorportraits #seniorportraitphotographer #sacramentoportraitphotographer #sacramentobrandingphotographer #sacramentophotographer #soccerportraits #fineartphotography #fineartphotographer #portraitphotographer #editorialportrait #editorialportraits #firstofthefirst #rosevilleseniorphotographer #folsomseniorphotographer #eldoradohillsseniorphotographer #granitbayseniorphotography #classof2024 #youthportraits #foreveryoung #davisphotographer #davisportraitphotographer #soccerphotos #highschoolportraits #highschoolphotographer #highschoolphotos
In the two years since I relocated to West Sacrame In the two years since I relocated to West Sacramento, I've come to the realization almost daily that this is the community I've been searching for to both work and live in. A few weeks back, I had the joy of capturing the Stevens Family's annual fall portraits at the local @killdeer_farms. What began as a mini-session booking ended up being rescheduled into a full session, and I'm grateful for that because 20 minutes simply wouldn't have been enough to capture all the creative ideas this family brought to the table. As a family portrait photographer, there's no greater reward than being hired by people who radiate passion and enthusiasm for being in front of the camera. A key goal of mine is consistently to discover a unique experience and location for my clients—one where they can feel entirely at ease, free from distractions. I'm absolutely grateful for the collaboration with Killdeer Farms and giving me the opportunity and access to photograph in that charming country location. Check out their website where you may find some cool things to buy for the holidays. https://killdeerfarms.co/ . . .. . .k . . #killdeerfarms #farmportraits #westsacramentophotographer #westsacbestsac #westsacramentofamilyphotographer #sacramentophotographer #sacramentofamilyphotographer #familyphotos #photoideas #elkgrovephotographer #elkgrovefamilyphotographer #sacramentoportraitphotographer #fineartphotographer #creativephotoshoot #davisphotographer #davisfamilyphotographer #yolocountyphotographer #visityolo #flowerfarm #yolofarms #westsacfarms #birdphotos #localfarm #familyportrait #familyphotographer #lifestylefamilyphotographer #folsomfamilyphotographer #rosevillefamilyphotographer

It’s about appreciation of the amazing images I created for her family. It’s a reminder that the art I create has the power to evoke joy and gratitude in others.

There it is – that picturesque white fence again There it is – that picturesque white fence against the stunning backdrop of autumn, just as I had envisioned for capturing family portraits. If you read the book ‘The Secret” by Rhonda Byrne you will know what I am talking about 🙂. On a windy day at the edge of West Sac, where the urban bustle meets the serene farmlands, I had the pleasure of meeting the wonderful Houser Family. Together, we crafted memories that are as timeless as the changing leaves in October. 🍁💫 Here’s to moments that last a lifetime! . . . . . .. . #westsacramentofamilyphotographer #westsacramentophotographer #sacramentophotographer #sacramentoportraitphotographer #sacramentofamilyphotographer #clarksburgphotographer #visityolo #sacmoms # #countrylife #countrylifestyle #farmland #fall #folliage #autumn #sacramentominisessions #familyportrait #whitecountryfence #davisphotographer #davisfamilyphotographer #elkgrovefamilyphotographer #folsomfamilyphotographer #rosevillefamilyphotographer #capturingmemories #916photoshoot #916photos #familyphotographerinsacramento #familysession #lookslikefilm #parenthood_moments
Mini Sessions are already in full swing! I've capt Mini Sessions are already in full swing! I've captured so many beautiful shots and families that I'm having a tough time choosing which one to share with you first. So, let's start with something as fresh and promising as a new beginning, just like this maternity portrait symbolizes. When you schedule a mini-session, with just 20 minutes of photo coverage, this is what happens when your 20 min happens to be in that golden hour time of the day. Isn't the light magical in these photos? But there's a catch when you're amidst the Redwoods - the day turns to dusk earlier, creating a unique ambiance. Oh, and let's not forget the charming company of mosquitoes from the nearby creek! 😉 later in the day! Thank you Dee and Max for trusting me to capture this important milestone of your life and relationship.

🏔Embracing the open sky, listening to the gentl 🏔Embracing the open sky, listening to the gentle whispers of the Sacramento Delta breeze, and witnessing the golden light of the sunset embracing the vibrant colors of the blooming flowers, on a hot summer day in August I happened to find inspiration in a place I often drive by – Killdeer Farms. ✈As an artist, my role is to discover inspiration from various sources, including people and locations. One of the most fulfilling aspects of my creative journey is the opportunity to collaborate with fellow creative professionals and small businesses like me who not only uplift my spirit but also propel my work to new heights. 💐📸I had the pleasure of meeting Christine and Scott, two remarkable individuals deeply committed to the art of sustainable flower farming in West Sacramento. Their passion and dedication shine through in everything they do. Hopefully, through my photography, I can showcase the value this place holds for the community.

How do you picture your ideal family portrait sess How do you picture your ideal family portrait session? In nature or in the city? During fall, winter, spring, or summer? No matter where and when your family portraits take place the most important is to just have fun and enjoy your day and time with your family together . This is a special time for family bonding, letting go of rigid expectations and just be you! This is when the enchantment unfolds. Real, unscripted moments infused with emotions surface naturally when everyone is at ease. And indeed, when you are relaxed, the whole family feels the same. . .
One of the aspects I truly cherish about my work i One of the aspects I truly cherish about my work is the constant learning of new things. Photography is a constantly evolving medium, both from a technical and creative standpoint. It's like an ongoing journey of discovery. 📸✨ Starting from the basics of operating a camera, then, you learn more about what the camera can do and how to align it with your artistic vision - it's a continuous learning curve. And that's not all; mastering image processing is another layer. My journey began in the traditional darkroom and then transitioned to the digital realm, with tools like "Lightroom," and beyond, adapting to emerging trends, technology, and strategies for promoting and showcasing work effectively. My BFA in Photography has undoubtedly played a part, but it's just a fraction of this lifelong learning process. It's kind of like life - as we get older, our work does too. Each step we take, each new technique we learn, brings depth and maturity to our creations, preventing us from stagnation and pushing us toward perfecting ourselves.. 🌱📷 **Images done for @salon.hanover @renee_ludlow_beauty @milapeshunova . .
This summer, our family embarked on a remarkable a This summer, our family embarked on a remarkable adventure – a road trip to Glacier National Park in Montana. And let me tell you, it was truly the wildest experience we've ever had together. 🏞️We saw two times grizzly bears. We embarked on a challenging 10-mile hike to Iceberg Lake, a place where real icebergs gently float. The entire landscape was enchanting, and every view was a breathtaking masterpiece. However, I confess, I took only a handful of photos with my professional camera during this trip. My intention was different. I wanted to truly immerse myself in the surroundings, hike, climb, connect with my children, and embrace the natural wonders around us. Yes, I did snap a few shots with my phone, but in reality, you face a choice – you can either be fully present and enjoy the journey or focus on capturing every moment through your lens. Throughout my years as a professional photographer who also adores traveling, I've come to a realization. You can't always have both – relishing a trip and working simultaneously unless you're not bound by time constraints Yet, in my heart, I know I'll return to this magical place someday, armed with my camera, to capture all that I missed. Believe me, I witnessed countless scenes on the road that beckoned me to stop and capture their beauty. But alas, that journey would stretch not for two weeks, but perhaps two months. In that image, you see my husband and my older son enjoying the warm waters of Lake MacDonald. It was the freshest and cleanest lake water I have ever seen. . . . . . . #lakemcdonald #lakemcdonaldmontana #lakemcdonaldglaciernationalpark #loutdoorfamilyphotography #glaciernp #familyvacation2023 #familypicture #outsidephotography #sacramentofamilyphotographer #sacramentofamilyportraits #momofinstagram #folsomfamilyphotographer #westsacramentofamilyphotographer #myfamilyiswild #livinginmontana #rosevillefamilyphotographer #davisfamilyphotographer #familypics #sacramentophotographers #travelphotographylovers #travelshot #familylifestylephotography #capturingmemories #adventurephotographer #localphotographer #laketahoephotographer #eldoradohillsfamilyphotographer #elkgrovefamilyphotographer
