It’s always great to capture 3 generations in one photo shoot, especially at a fun location like Seabright Beach in Santa Cruz. It’s no easy task to coordinate four families and their schedules for one shoot, especially when they don’t all live in the area. Luckily the stars were in alignment, the weather was gorgeous, […]

OK, so there’s a lot more photos in this post than is typical for a family portrait session, but Tom and Kristin have five photogenic, fun kids that made it really hard for me to narrow them down. They live near Seascape beach in Aptos, so it was a natural choice for their family photo […]

Julie is a fantastic local CMP (Certified Massage Practitioner) working in the Santa Cruz area. She needed some updated portraits/headshots to use for her business marketing material – plus all the online profiles there are today – Yelp, LinkedIn, Facebook, industry websites, etc. It’s always good to keep your official portraits up to date. Even […]

Verona and Paul’s wedding is coming up in a few weeks, so we couldn’t put off their engagement shoot any longer! Luckily the November weather cooperated, giving us a beautiful setting at Panther Beach (where it’s usually exceptionally windy). These two have a lot of chemistry, which makes my photo-taking job so much easier. The […]

Capitola Beach is one of my favorite locations for taking family photos – kids love the beach, and everything from the colorful beach-side houses to the wooden pier make for incredible backdrops for family portraits. I met this family of four under the pier for their session, getting some formal group shots of them before […]

Tonight’s restaurant photography session at Johnny’s Harborside Restaurant in Santa Cruz had a few goals: portraits of both the hostess and executive chef, some evening ambiance photos, and some customer photos. Unfortunately the fog rolled in right around sunset, so the timing didn’t work out when that evening’s diners started coming in, but it’s always […]

Ah, lovely food photography. Everyone seems to think it’s the toughest thing to shoot – but those people clearly haven’t tried photographing small children at the beach who want to look at anything but the camera. Food is so well behaved, I just want to eat it up. And I do. Regularly. Just another side benefit […]

Sometimes the wedding day just get a little too busy, too crazy, and there’s just not enough time to get those beautiful bride and groom portraits. Lauren’s dad has a beautiful property in the Santa Cruz mountains, replete with lush garden “rooms,” redwoods, vines and even an odd antique bed frame thrown in there. We […]

This is a fun, short family photography session taken at Capitola Beach. Michelle told me she really only wanted one photo, but of course you know this isn’t my style. Let’s have options, baby!

There are so many amazing locations in the Santa Cruz area to shoot, and Chandra and Jason found they really connect with Wilder Ranch, a collection of old houses, barns and fields comprising the farming property of the Wilder family. It’s now a historical preserve and part of the State Park system. Most people come […]

Monica and Danny found me online, and although I don’t shoot a ton of newborn portraits every year, I consider each job I take on a blessing.
