Expecting. Fresno Pregnancy Photographer

This was another memorable maternity session. Time flew by as we had fun joking around and finding fun poses with mommy's belly. Just one more month to go before meeting their little boy!
I constantly receive compliments on the mommy draped in the red cloth on my website, and many mothers have wanted to try it with their belly.  The cloth went missing back in February, and just yesterday I was able to obtain a replacement... so Mom's, the red cloth is back and open for all to try!

New Love. Clovis Newborn Photographer

Meet sweet little baby boy 'C'. He was a charm, and his two big sisters were so much fun to play with during the photo session. And boy is he loved! Sisters would not stop kissing him every chance they got.

An Amazing Mother. Fresno Maternity Photographer

I must say I am very lucky to have some of the best clients around, and this couple from yesterday was no exception.  This mother is pregnant with her 5th child and is as beautiful as ever. What a great belly she has as well as a wonderful disposition.  I enjoyed every moment we spent together and cannot wait to meet #5 next month.



Young Wisdom. Fresno Infant Photographer

This little 5 day old simply would not sleep for me... he was so calm and inquisitive making him a joy to photograph even awake. He seemed to not want to miss a moment of his big photo day. His awake images turned out wonderful, and he definitely holds the record for the best eye contact of a newborn I have ever photographed. 

Baby Skin

I photographed this little guy when he was only 2 weeks old... what seems like yesterday has actually been 7 months. He is now a crawling machine, making keeping up with this little explorer all the more challenging.  Mom wanted him to be photographed against black to show off is beautiful bare skin, and not only did we accomplish that, but we captured his sweet smile and sparkling eyes too.  

Here is baby boy with older brother and sister.  For all of you that have my business card, you should recognize big sister as the green eyed beauty smiling on the back. 


Mr. Curious

I have photographed this growing boy 3 times this past year. This time I was able to see a keen intelligence that I have never witnessed in a 1 year old.  There are big things in store for his future!


Children help us appreciate the small things in life, even a single blade a grass becomes interesting in a child's eyes.

A Carriage Full of Fun

Here is a sweetie pie that I photographed a few weeks back. I invited mom to bring miss Courtney back for a quick session in my antique baby carriage. I have had the opportunity to use this carriage a few times and am loving the images I get with it. 

A Wonderful Gift

This newborn session was gifted by Auntie and Uncle and I am sure they will be proud of our work with handsome little baby "C" who was only 9 days old. Thank you for sharing your family with me!

A Busy Woman

I have been a very busy bee since arriving back from the coast this last week... I had 4 photo sessions, booked 6 more, received the prints for 7 orders I just completed retouching, sent off 6 canvas orders, dealt with a hacker trying to mess with my website while I was gone, received my new Mac Pro computer system, (complete with a 30" screen) and have been trying to set it up... all while spending 3 afternoons training a new assistant. WHEW! And this is not even my "busy" season. Not to mention I have 5 photo sessions this week and lots more to do.
Because of all of this I am a bit behind with posting on the blog, but I will get there... Here are some of the orders I received in the last couple of days. Look at the large stack of birth announcements!
These are the deluxe 5x7 folded cards.  They are custom designed, come in sets of 24 and are genuine press printed cards.  A set comes standard with each newborn session! They are the most beautiful, and highest quality cards I could find out there. I have been truly impressed with each set I receive in.

We've all been waiting for these beach photos! Family Photographer Fresno

You may recognize this beautiful family if you have been following my blog. I had the pleasure of photographing them once again, this time at the beach. The images from our day together turned out fabulous! I especially LOVE the sunset silhouettes we were able to capture. Here is a sampling of what we accomplished.




These images look so beautiful and classic "aged".

We are Back!

Our past 7 days was heavenly on California's Central Coast. My husband and I enjoyed the cool ocean breezes, walks on the beach, and sleeping in every morning. The two of us have been going non-stop in our respective worlds for months now, so this was a well deserved retreat.

Even though I was on a "break", I could not get photography off my mind. I had some time to explore the antique shops on the coast and found a couple of goodies to use with my future newborn subjects. I also had one of my all time favorite families join us on Tuesday afternoon for photos on the beach, I will be posting a sneak peek of their session soon.

Below is our attempt to take a photo to remember our second anniversary with. Well, without a third person this is a tough task. Luckily I brought my trusty tripod! Running to get in position after clicking that timer is always an adventure... especially in the sand dunes.


Although he was Mr. Serious in this test shot, my husband has a way of looking great in almost any photo I take of him. Thats Morro Rock in the background.

Celebrating 2 Years of Marriage.

My husband and I are celebrating our 2 year wedding anniversary this week! Because my husband is beach man, I am taking him out of this hot valley to the cool breezes of the Central California Coast for a week. It will be a time of rejuvenation and fun. Stay tuned for the photos when we get back.

Below is my African King and I on our wedding day.


FYI: I will have limited to no access to the web during the next week. Any emails will be answered shortly after we get back on July 26th.

Another Big Boy

Yesterday I photographed my 3rd newborn boy in the last month or so that was over 10 lbs at birth. At only 5 days old, this little peanut gave me some of the biggest newborn smiles I have ever captured. Thank you baby "A" for an A+ performance!

BLESSED. Fresno Baby Photographer

This little man stole my heart. He has a very special story that has become an inspiration to me, making me long so much more for my future family. He is a blessing to every soul he comes in contact with. He has a big future ahead of him, I look forward to seeing him grow.

99 days

Mom's family has a tradition to photograph their babies at 99 days old... and this time it was little Jake's turn. He did wonderful during his big photo day with lots of smiles, and even took a little nap giving us the opportunity to add to his repertoire of sweet sleepy shots.

Are they twins?

Not quite... these two are cousins (and I am sure future best friends) at only 6 days apart. They are just over two months now, and it was a real gift to get them both asleep at the same time for such a precious shot. I photographed miss Amelia originally when she was only 4 days old, this time it was Olivia's turn.
And what an exquisite image of this little angel and her beautiful mommy!

My Biggest Little Star. Newborn Photographer Fresno

I photographed this lovable bundle at 11 days old and he is already topping 11 pounds. He was a delightful baby to photograph, letting me move him around as much as I wanted. I loved this first image so much it is now displayed as the "intro" photograph to my website.

Happy Independence Day everyone!
