Babies and toddlers.....





And after the delivery we have the wonderful, individual and all very different babies and then toddlers. It is so exciting to watch these little ones grow. They change soooo much the first year of life. Thank you to all who have trusted me with your precious little ones through the years.

Maternity.....




Maternity portraits are fairly new to the area in terms of photographic history. I don't remember any professional photographer in the area offering these types of portraits when I was expecting Josh 15 years ago. When Demi Moore posed for the cover of Vanity Fair very much expecting that probably kicked it off, but I have not researched it, just a guess. It is definitely a wonderful keepsake to have of a very, very special time.

Model session.....



Miss Sarah came in last week for a model session. We had fun with different outfits and settings.

Here are just a couple.

Easter Break 2008.....






The first two days of Easter Break we spent watching Josh and his team members of the Redwood Freshman baseball team playing in the Buchanan Baseball Tournament. Congratulations to the guys for winning second place. Off to Santa Barbara for the remainder of the break. Santa Barbara is such a beautiful place. We stayed in a wonderful hotel - Mar Monte.

We had scrumptious dinners and toured the Mission. You can see here they also have a restored, antique carousel in the park people ride all day long. And we went to one of the many orchid farms. Of course over here in the valley my orchids only do well inside. Very nice vacation.

A beautiful time of year.....








Oh it is so beautiful this Spring time. All the wonderful snow and rain this winter has made the hills and valley vibrant with color! A variety of backgrounds to create many choices for my portrait models. Here are the recent high school senior images. You all were so fun to work with. Thanks so very much!!!
