Joy is not something that finds us, but something that we create; and my 2018 couldn’t have been more truth to this statement. I am so grateful for your love and support (my readers, my clients, my friends). XOXO Now I will record some words of love for myself, to look for in the future: […]

Before I start writing, I change the music. I need to feel inspired. Paper Kites is now playing. I need the words to flow from my heart through my keyboard for you to read. I need to look at the pictures I created to be able to tell you my story about them. As a […]

Families come in different shapes and styles these days; but there is something quite special about the dynamics of growing up in a household with three boys. I admit, I am bias. I love having my boys. I love the never ending energy that more often than not, drives me nuts;  but then it all […]

My branding is now complete. I am so happy to share that I will be adding these beautiful 8 GB USB drives from USB Memory Direct to my new line of products.  I have offered USB drives in the past, but they always felt short for one reason or other. First of all, I loved […]

Even though I am an Almaden Valley based photographer, I travel almost on a yearly basis to Toronto, Canada; where I once grew roots. I lived, worked, had friends, and had family there.

The season has arrived, and I will be once more hosting mini-sessions this year. I have had families coming to me for over 7 years now, and I can’t wait to see them. Mini-sessions have almost become a “date” I get to have with families that have supported my business and my art since I […]

Another favorite San Jose At Home Session on the books, for this Almaden Valley Photographer. This gorgeous family’s first and only son was turning one year old, and to celebrate, they invited me into their home to photograph their family. When I asked the mom why she was hiring me, and she said… “I just […]

It’s official, I am declaring a campaign to get moms in the pictures. I think that after 7 years of being in business, I have found my purpose; and that is to bring mothers in front of the camera. I believe in what I preach, and I can’t stress enough the importance of capturing those […]

Quebec City will always hold a special place in my heart. Not only because my brother lives there, but also because it was the city that helped me heal from the deepest heartbreak I have ever experienced in my life. The streets in this beautiful city helped find myself. They made me realized I have […]
