I'm a boutique portrait & family photographer working in Sonoma County and surrounding area.

I'm a lifestyle photographer working in Sonoma County and surrounding areas. My focus is family portraits, personal/professional portraits, newborn photos, engagement and wedding photography. But I am an artist first and foremost, so if you have an idea for a unique photo shoot, please send me an email and we'll discuss the possibilities.

It's not business as usual. AI, specifically LLMs and generative AI is changing the landscape for all of us and we have to consider the safety of our loved ones.
In this wild west that we have been tossed into, without our consent, we have to figure out how best to navigate.
I'll be honest, I'm pretty pi**ed about it all. How do I market what I do in a digital world when my work can be taken without my scent and used for anything.
My client's safety comes first.
In many ways it has validated what I do: IRL prined artwork of your family that is yours and yours alone, in the privacy of your own home.
I don't know for sure if I will still have a space here. Time will tell.
But I'm doubling down on the printed photograph. No one can extract/scrape images of your kids from the walls of your own home like they can online.

I haven't posted much about my wee networking group...and I need to fix that! This is no time to be modest because this is an incredible (and growing) group of amazing women entrepreneurs/business ow wrs/solopreneurs!

I started this group two years ago, from the idea that women in community, sharing their struggles and wins in business, helps to shore us all up!
At the same time, every time we gather we bring $10 so that collectively we can make a difference!
I am proud to say that today we managed to bring our total amount collected, and we just passed the $500 mark. We are raising money as a collective this year to donate to Art Escape in Sonoma! An incredible non-profit dedicated to bringing art and creativity in an accessible to the community. My kind of people!❤️

The power of a collective working towards a goal is energizing, to say the least.

So, no more modesty, it's here out in the open! I am so proud to know all my CCCers! Powerhouse women!

I love it when my awesome clients catch me in the process!
Install is the scariest part for me. I don't want to mess it up! I would rather my hubs do it, to be honest. But I take it seriously.
When I say I take you by the hand and lead you through a fun and easy process to create artwork of your family for the walls of your home...I frickin' mean it
If there is one sticking point (there are so many) along the way, I know the final install can be the hardest part. There is no way I am leaving you inches from the finish line.❤️

Delivery/install day gets me excited but nervous. Sunday, I got to deliver one of my favorite sessions of this year...and they loved it and it made me so happy. A confirmation of why I do what I do❤️
