Spring sessions have quietly become some of my favorite sessions of the entire year. Not because of flowers or trends or perfect weather… but because this is often the last season before everything feels full again. It’s one of the few times when families allow themselves to slow down and be taken care of instead of rushing from one thing to the next.

Inside my natural-light studio in Folsom, I’ve created a space where families can simply arrive, breathe, and be held in this season. A place where you don’t have to worry about tidying your home, packing everything perfectly, or feeling rushed. Just a calm environment where your story can unfold naturally

When someone asks me what I love about photographing families, I tell them it’s witnessing the small, beautiful pieces of your story continuously unfold.

There’s something incredibly powerful about photographing parents who have walked through loss. Every maternity image carried a story. A reminder that love persists, even in the most fragile moments. As we captured the soft glow of evening light and the gentle curve of her belly, it was clear that this baby was already deeply loved.

Over the years, I’ve had the honor of walking alongside so many families as they grow from that quiet season of expectancy to the hazy, love-filled newborn days. And the more I witness these chapters unfold, the more deeply I believe in documenting both. There’s something profoundly meaningful about preserving the whole story, not just the moment baby arrives, but the months leading up to it, the way your love expands before your arms are even full.

It’s that time of year again when the soft, golden light of fall makes every moment feel extra magical. I am so happy to officially open my calendar for fall family photo sessions in Sacramento and Roseville. This year, I am offering full-length sessions along with a very limited number of petite Christmas sessions as a little holiday surprise.

Choosing a photographer is more than finding someone who takes beautiful pictures.

It’s about finding someone you trust to hold your story with care—someone who will see you fully, guide you gently, and help you feel at ease in front of the camera. Especially when you’re documenting moments as meaningful as motherhood, a new baby, or family milestones, the experience matters just as much as the final images.

If you're located in Sacramento, Roseville, or anywhere nearby, and you're wondering how to choose the right photographer for your session, here are a few thoughtful tips to help you decide

As a mother, I often find myself holding on to fleeting moments with my little ones—the laughter, the cuddles, and the quiet moments we share. I know how quickly time passes, and the thought of those moments slipping away can be bittersweet. That's why capturing them in photos feels so important to me. It's not just about freezing a moment in time; it's about preserving a memory that you'll cherish forever.

As you embark on the remarkable journey of motherhood, filled with endless wonder and boundless love, I want to extend my heartfelt greetings and assure you that you're in the gentlest of hands. Preparing for your newborn photography session isn't merely about logistics; it's about creating a sanctuary of warmth, love, and cherished moments that will be etched into your heart forever.

Today, I was hoping to share with you a glimpse into my world—the world of capturing moments, emotions, and the raw beauty of life through my lens.

Each session I have the privilege of shooting holds a special place in my heart, but there are a few that stand out, each for their own unique reasons.

As you already know, my brand-new STUDIO IS NOW OPEN! I have just finished editing the sessions from my studio and I cannot wait to share them with you.this first session in the studio was truly magical, and we were so happy we were able to finish renovating the studio in time to welcome her newborn baby girl. 

I’ve always aimed to provide an exceptional photography experience that captures the essence of your family’s love and connection. To take this vision to the next level, I am delighted to introduce my new studio in Northern California, serving families from Sacramento to Roseville to El Dorado Hills.
