Daniel & Lucie were my first engagement session of the new year.  They decided on downtown San Jose as their location and came to the session looking downtown chic!  We wandered around for a bit and ended up on the 18th floor lounge of their building.  I can’t wait to hear all about the wedding!  

A very special princess turned four a few weeks ago and I was there to photograph it all!  The party was complete with amazing decorations, yummy food, a cake fit for a princess and even a visit from a very special magical princess.  Have a look at the photos!  

Once a week I try to network with someone in the industry.  It can be a model, makeup artist, stylist or another photographer.  This week I met with Kriti, a filmmaker who also wants to try her hand at modeling.  This was her first time in front of the camera and I think these photos came out great, what do you think? 

I met the sweetest twins Miyah & Milah on a rooftop in downtown San Jose.  We danced, wore floral crowns and got silly!  Here are a few of my favorite photos from their session! 

Khalil, my son, six years old and full of personality.  These are his holiday portraits!

It’s always great seeing the Bethel family.  This year they decided to switch things up and do holiday portraits at their beautiful home.  After some formal photos we took Brooklyn outside and captured her true personality.  You should always consider your home for holiday portraits its a great alternative! 

I absolutely love photographing couples!  Evan and Karen are engaged and getting married in December.  They met in China while Evan was on business there.  They say that their love works because they are so similar.  They enjoy wining and dining, traveling and laughing together.  I can’t wait until their wedding in December!  We wandered all over Chrissy Field and the Palace of Fine Art and got amazing photos.  Enjoy!

I LOVE the So family!  When I get to photograph other parts of my client’s life they become friends!  Not only do I photograph their family portrait I also get to photograph their events.  It was their annual holiday portrait and we met at the Almaden Mining Museum for photos.  Here are a few of my favorites!  Enjoy!
