Kristen and Nassim work in the oil industry and travel the world for their jobs. So they decided that they would drop into San Francisco for the weekend and have an engagement session. It was such a treat to hear their story and about their lives - not to mention getting out of the valley to the shining city by the bay for a great session. This one goes way back to last summer, but better late than never! Enjoy!
For Jill and Ryan's engagement session we headed to downtown Fresno after a quick stop at San Joaquin Country Club. I love working with people who are so quick to laugh, to have fun and totally let loose. Enjoy my favorites!
I cruised on up to San Francisco for Megan and Josh's engagement session a few weeks ago and was greeted by an amazing day! We started out on their rooftop garden before heading on to the Ferry Building and Baker Beach for a finish just before sunset. Such a blast hanging out with these two, I can hardly wait for their wedding at the Tank 18 Winery in a little over a month.
This is quite possibly the most fun family portrait session I photographed all of last year. You mix two crazy, nuts, spirited boys with a mom who has totally given in to the fact her boys are what they are, and you get some serious hilarity. Just a ton of boys being boys with a nice little family portrait in the middle. Apparently in this family, when mom says hug your brother, that means knock him down and drag him across the ground. It made the perfect Christmas card! More than anything, I love when I can capture kids this age, acting exactly like kids this age. You only get one chance at it, make it count!
After 4 years, I finally sat down and went through 100,000+ or so wedding pictures I've taken over the last 8 years and pared it down to 76 or so of my absolute favorites - the images that I feel define my style and how I photograph weddings. True to nature it's heavy on moments, heavy on joy, heavy on the quirky little kids, with a dash of dynamic portraits thrown in for good measure. I hope it brings a smile to your face, and I really hope it inspires you to get in touch with me about shooting your wedding. Enjoy!
Here is a senior session from downtown Fresno. Kylee graduates from Central this year - go Grizzlies! So, as life gets busy for the seniors around the valley, with finals, prom, and graduation, I hope you take a little break to peek at a selection of my favorites from an evening spent enjoying the textures and colors downtown!

This is Jessica and her session in downtown Fresno. The skies, the light, and Jessica were all amazing and I love the results. Here's a few of my favorites from her senior portrait session. FEATURED SENIOR PORTRAITS
Jodi and Steven got in touch with me to shoot their urban engagement session. And, I'm really ecstatic that they've now chosen me to work with them as their wedding photographer! Great couple. Cute dog. A fun evening! Here are a few of my favorites:
Calvin and Dmitri's parents are our long-time friends and I've gotten to know these boys well over the years. May a few of the shots from this session give you some insight into these smart, talented, and funny young men.
