San Francisco Bay Area Newborn Photographer: Welcome Baby Emi!

Exactly 10 days ago on July 18, 2011, it was the day I held my sweet and precious girl in my arms for the very first time! Meet Emi, she is the newest addition to our family and she is super sweet and so loved! Months before my due date, I was already looking forward to her newborn session :) It's nice to have a personal baby model, and here are my favorite images!

My precious angel :)



















And here's big brother Tyler who's super proud to have a younger sister! It's so sweet that he always wants to hold and kiss her :)

San Francisco Bay Area Newborn Photographer: Baby Ethan

I consider myself very fortunate to do what I love, and just the past week I had another opportunity to photograph a newborn session with a colleague/friend/past bride and groom of mine who welcomed a beautiful baby boy :) Meet Ethan, he was born on June 29th and was 8 days young when I met him, he was an absolute dream to work with! Ethan slept soundly and we were able to use different props. Congratulations and enjoy the sneak previews!!!

My favorite image of the day, such peaceful slumber :)













I was looking through the viewfinder of the camera when I noticed Ethan's smile, and then realized he just sprinkled on daddy! I couldn't resist posting dad's reaction:)

Family Portraits

Timing couldn't have been more perfect when I received an email from Mona a week ago during my last few days of being on bed rest. We scheduled a family session just over the weekend and I got to meet her wonderful family for the first time :) Thank you for inviting me to your new home, hope you enjoy your sneak previews!

Meet Selma, she's 3 and super adorable :)


Baby Layla is the newest addition to the family, here she is sleeping soundly at just 25 weeks young...


...but not for long until she is awake again :)




It melts my heart to see how gentle and loving older siblings are :)
