On Jan 31st, Chris and I left the country with his mom, Coco, to attend one of his cousin’s (Ale) weddings in Celaya, Mexico. I’ve never been to central Mexico so I was beyond excited to explore the towns and photograph some LIFE. Our first day was full of travel and we didn’t land until […]

Katie and San met me in Mill Valley where they showed me around one of their favorite parks, Old Mill Park. It’s where the trail head for the Dipsea Trail begins (one of their favorites). We then headed down the HWY to Slacker Hill for an epic hike up the mountain to grab the views […]

One of my favorite families returned to the bay area this fall and requested a Labor Day family adventure session IN A TREE HOUSE. No big deal. I’m not sure if you’ll remember this family from last year, but the Tsais met me in Bodega at sunrise to photograph them with their 8 month old […]

Back in October, I took a short break from mom life and traveled to Tahoe to learn from some of my favorite photographers. For 2 days, 20 students gathered in the living room of a giant vacation home in Kirkwood and absorbed as much as our little brains could handle. At the end of the […]

We enjoyed so many amazing adventures in Fallen Leaf Lake and we hope to get the opportunity to visit again soon. Thankfully, on our final night there, we were able spoiled with one of the most incredibly colorful sunsets I’ve ever seen. 

As I said last week, Fallen Leaf Lake holds an extremely special place in my heart. Our long weekend away was spent soaking up the sun in one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. It held me close, nurtured my soul, and left me yearning for more of its gentle grace.   If […]
