welcome to my blog and website!

I love what I do - I'm a mother to my 2 year-old baby girl named Gemma, wife to my amazing husband Scott, sister (youngest of 6) to my wonderful brothers and sisters, and daughter to my supportive and sweet mother and father (may he rest in peace). I am also a photographer in the Bay Area with passion for people and telling stories.

For 15 years I produced video games, focusing mainly on art, animation and story. Now I'm applying those artistic and story-telling skills to my photography and having so much fun!

Thanks so much for stopping by and checking out my site. Drop me a comment and let me know what you think - I love hearing from folks! :)

Enjoy life! Enjoy my site! Gracias!

Little Alex & the McCullough Family | Bay Area Family Photography

May 30, 2013 ~ family stories

A natural extension of being a wedding photographer is becoming a family photographer when your couples start having babies. Well I am finding that I love family photography just as much as I love wedding photography. I love all the tiny wonderful and often messy details of family life and love that happen on a daily basis and are yet so fleeting – so many stories to tell, both big and small. Please contact me if you would like a family session, I’d LOVE to do it. 🙂

I had a super wonderful time with the McCullough family enjoying 10-month old Alexandra and their very patience and laid-back dog Bo who is still getting used to no longer being the only ‘child’. Alex is so full of joy and wonder. She will forever be known as the girl with the photoshopped eyes – her eyes are so naturally gorgeously blue and bright in person and they just popped in the light. Please enjoy some of my favorites from my time with the McCullough family.

She’s learning to walk! I’m sure the next time I see her she’ll be running around and being unstoppable. I love this little moment with her father guiding her first steps.
