something beautiful.
I waited 36 years to hear the word
Mama
"it was all happening just as fast as everyone had promised."
Of course, I posted that proud moment online as soon as it happened.
It was all happening just as fast as everyone had promised.
A friend from across the country replied: "Just wait until she says,
"I love you."
In that moment, my heart stopped.
I realized that in a few short months, this beautiful moment would be ancient history.
It was all happening just as fast as everyone had promised.
As a mother and a formally trained professional photographer, I believe that life's milestones deserve to be honored, treasured, and preserved...not only for you, but for your children to share with their children.
she was my first
The studio is located at The Arsenal, a bohemian artist's enclave in Benicia, California. Rich in history and artistic inspiration, The Arsenal is best described as a photographer's dream. The studio and gallery boast 30-foot ceilings, with huge windows throughout. A selection of well-curated props and furnishings are used within the luminous space but photographic possibilities extend beyond the walls of the primary studio, providing endless variations in photographic styling. Simply put...there is no single place in the San Francisco Bay Area where you can go for a photo session and get so much variety in one session.
Go to ONE location, get TONS of looks. Indoors and out.
Any time of year.
This is definitely NOT your average photography studio.
A photo DESTINATION and EXPERIENCE in one.
I am able to offer my clients a HUGE variety of looks simply because of my location. There is no other place in the Bay Area where you can get so much variety in ONE session.
30-foot ceilings, huge windows, exposed brick, an ivy-covered courtyard, seasonal flowers, arched hallways...should I go on?
Winter. Spring. Summer. Fall.
There is something beautiful and memorable for each season.
It's simple
the studio
the value lies in the end result
I help you figure out the best way to preserve and display your images BEFORE even picking up a camera.
It's no secret, printed art of your family members provides more lasting emotional connection to your loved ones than swiping through electronic images on a device.
No two families are the same, and the goal is to create something that is just right for YOU and your home that will stand the test of time. The information gathered during the consultation will determine how we shoot your session.
The Design Consultation is optional and can happen in person or online.
why hire a professional?
we only knew we were HAVING FUN
we didn't know we were making memories
My goal is to make your session a FUN and RELAXED experience.
At the end of the process, you will have at least one tangible art piece, great memories, and no regrets. Read my reviews and you will see that most families who have done this...want to do it again!
when you see your images for the first time
The ordering appointment is the most exciting and emotional part of your entire experience.
We want you to know exactly what your images are going to look like in your home, in our products, and in your life.
