This week I received an email from Redfin asking if I would like to be featured on their site with a small blurb about my favorite area of Santa Rosa. I have lived here for about 95% of my life, so Santa Rosa is a very special place to me. In my adult years, I […]

We had such a wonderful evening connecting with other local photographers at our Sonoma County Shootout! For the first time we chose to do a Motherhood shoot…and we are so glad we did! Amy and Everette were such gorgeous subjects! I mean, seriously…little Everette’s perfect baby faces. So sweet. This time of year in Sonoma […]
