Tennessee Wedding – Whitney & Chris – Too Much Fun!

It was such a pleasure heading to my hometown in Tennessee to photograph Whitney and Chris’ wedding this summer! We lucked out and the weather wasn’t too hot (or humid) and it didn’t RAIN!  These 2 are so perfect together. Both true characters, funny as heck and always getting into something, usually FUN. Whitney played pro Softball in Europe a few years back and…

I’m thrilled to share that I’ve received this recognition again this year. I’ve got such great clients and I am truly blessed!

Studio Portraits with Nugget the Bulldog

What a ‘model’ pet!  Nugget was a ton of fun to photograph. This 4-year-old English Bulldog was perfectly content in front of the lens. Catherine, his incredibly talented owner, plans to publish a line of greeting cards. Here are a few of my favorites (bummer that I can’t post them all!)      

Lodi Family Keeps Growing!

I love this family! It’s been great watching them grow over the years. I photographed Jasmine and Ross’ wedding back in 2006 and then I can remember when she called me wanting maternity photos. How fun to photograph both girls as newborns and toddlers. Now they are expecting a little boy!  Congratulations to Jasmine and Ross and thank you for choosing me as your…

Senior Portraits – Mequila

What fun to photograph a former student of mine! I remember Mequila as a bright, ambitious and helpful young student at Wagner-Holt Elementary.  Now she’s a Senior at Lincoln High! She was also one heck of a runner and I was thrilled to find out that she’s running track. (She is nursing a broken bone in her foot, so we opted for studio photos). …

This young man is going places!

Last week I was thrilled to photograph a young man who is on the path to success.  Andrew is just starting his senior year at Tokay. He is smart, polite, fun and full of ambition. I love seeing his attitude toward the future and the way that he embraces life. He is wild about science, reads all the time and plays a great game…

Touchdown! Cheerleader and NFL Tight End – Married!

Stockton native and former Oakland Raiderette, Ashlee Marks married her best friend, Tampa Bay Buckaneer’s tight end Brandon Myers at the beautiful Viaggio Estate and Winery this past weekend. What a DARLING couple! Ashlee and Brandon met thru mutual friends when Brandon was playing his rookie year with the Oakland Raiders. Brandon proposed in March of last year on the steps of Union Square…

Turtles Hatch during Wedding Ceremony!

I love beach weddings anyway, but this one I must say, was da bomb! Shelby and Mark are two beautiful people, inside and out. And when two people like this find each other I just think it’s magical. They planned their wedding where Shelby spent her winters throughout her childhood, the small Mexican town of Los Barriles, about 90 minutes North of Cabo on…

Smokin Hot Football

I had a great time shooting some studio portraits of Tobi, one of Rio Vista’s exchange students from Austria. He brought the same intensity to the studio that he carries on the field and you can see that in his eyes. Very determined young man. Thank you Studio b in Rescue California, for showing me the technique on the flames! This was not done…
