Mini Sessions! I announced mini sessions to my email list and they sold out in 24 hours! So much excitement for a taste of normalcy these days! I am so looking forward to them, so I added one more date! There are a few socially distant outdoor sessions available on November 7 at Temescal Gateway Park. There's more information and a booking calendar at the link in my bio. Take a look and I hope to see your face!

Mini Sessions! Also, mini sessions?! I know I say this every year, but this time around seems particularly mind boggling. Holiday minis. I'm still working out the details with myself, but will definitely be offering a limited selection of socially distant sessions this year. All outside, all masked up, all ready to document this difficult/beautiful time in your lives. For a moment, a bit of normalcy. I'm excited. I'll be shooting out emails early next week. If you want in, let me know!

Photographing people passionate about what they are doing with their lives will always bring me so much joy. And helping entrepreneurs represent their businesses with photographs that encapsulate the love behind their products, that is just overwhelming. Today I photographed @eclecticrelaxationla, a brand new company with enormous plans. I can't wait to watch it all unfold. Thank you FaTina!

These last few weeks have been ones of listening and reading for me. I've learned more about racism than I have in my lifetime. Things I knew on the surface, but didn't feel in my core. That being not racist is not enough, I must be anti-racist. I will learn and I will do better. Black Lives Matter. And representation matters. One of the posts I can't stop thinking about was from @claudehome, about Black business owners not showing their faces online for fear that people ...wouldn't support them if they knew the business was Black-owned. I was gut punched. If this is you, and you want to change that. If you just want some new imagery. Please shoot me an email ([email protected]) or a dm with your email address. I'll be offering these sessions complimentary. Either one-on-one or as a socially distant "event" if there's interest. To photograph people that are passionate about the things they are doing brings me so much joy. And if that can help you in your ventures, please let me know!
