It was a freezing cold morning to grab some shots for Sara & Ryan’s save-the-date card,  but you’d never know it from the bright sparkle in Sara’s eyes! I’m loving these opportunities to practice behind the camera, and learning so much more with every shoot!

Livermore Maternity Photographer

{As written August 2013} A year ago this ignited my passion for photography. It had long been a hobby of mine, but when my good friend Renee asked me to take a few photos for her I was flattered, and thought sure, why not? I started browsing Pinterest for ideas, we chatted about how she wanted to surprise the soon-to-be granparents with a card as the announcement. Pretty soon I was keeping myself up at night, jotting down ideas, trying out tricks for lighting, perspective, depth of field and getting to know my camera in a whole new way. I was hooked. Its hard to believe that was only a year ago.

And because people have asked- NO they do not make baby helmets!! That would kinda be awful. And no, they will not be putting their baby on their motorcycles. This tiny one is a display piece, but suited their style perfectly..
