I’m very thankful for my clients who teach me new things every time I photograph. Jolene is person I am very thankful for. I photographed her 3 months pregnant during a Carlos Baez workshop at WPPI this past February or March.
I had the opportunity to photograph her 8 months pregnant yesterday morning as I succumbed [...]
One of the great things about where I live and where I hope to never have to move away, is the fact that when I do come back to Tahoe, I feel completely at peace with the elevation, the scenery, the lifestyle. As it is, it is a 2 hour drive to the Sacramento airport [...]
Back in March I think it was I attended Wedding Portrait Photographers International annual gathering in Vegas. During this time I attended a workshop with Carlos Baez on Nudeoir. See previous photographs captured here and lucky me (no, seriously!), I avoided the video camera during the workshop. Amazing workshop, as there were only about 12 [...]
Saturday, May 29th, I didn’t have a wedding to photograph, as Sunday the 30th I did down in Foresthill. I thought as I gazed out into my backyard that I needed to play with the Holga. I needed to photograph Something (!). Back in the day when I lived in Livermore or even in Lafayette [...]

Client meet in San Francisco early Friday, wedding in San Ramon Friday night, Wedding in Rancho Murieta on Saturday, amazing crepes from Betsy Hite’s Elegant & Easy Gourmet, Client meet at Plumpjack’s Farm in Napa on Sunday and finished my glorious [...]
When I first met up at Sand Harbor a couple weeks ago with Reinee and Seth for their engagement session, I knew instantly they were going to be my creative fun couple that would allow me to go outside-the-box with them for their photography. We met up at dusk on the Lake Tahoe’s west shore [...]
Sometimes, just because I can, and because of friends’ influences, I take a break and just go PLAY. Yesterday was one rarity of day when my friend Ingrid and I went to explore a ghost town in Plumas County. I love ghost towns. I really need to get out to Bodie again and soon. I [...]
Alex has the coolest doors to his closet in his loft. They have these awesome pegs and with tied rope, which totally makes me think sadomasochistic photographs. Alex and Monica were married at the Claremont Resort and Spa in Berkeley back in November. She their wedding photographs here. I was lucky enough today to visit [...]
I came down to Oakland yesterday to visit my friend, Amy, as well as photograph a wedding in Santa Clara. The wedding was awesome, I’ll have images to post soon, but also was looking for some creative time with my friend, who is also a photographer. The weather is seriously rainy today, and I’m always [...]
Last week I attended WPPI (Wedding Portrait Photographers International) in Las Vegas. I’ve never been a huge fan of Vegas, and usually can only handle about 48 hours of the cigarette smoke and slot machines, but since my move to the Reno area, I’ve become a lot more accustomed to the environment. This year’s conference [...]
