You might remember the sweet Darty family from a few snowfalls sessions ago. They were getting ready for the arrival of their FIRST little girl, and we spent a VERY chilly afternoon documenting the special time in their lives in what might go down as the coldest session I’ve had to date! Still can’t believe […]

I am shamelessly smitten with my nieces and nephews. I can’t help it. They just melt my heart with their cuteness and little personalities. It’s like my love tank has a special compartment specifically designated for them!     It is for this reason I couldn’t be more excited for today’s post because I get […]

Meet the newest member of the Tharp family and my newest NEPHEW: Waylon Jean. I couldn’t be more excited for my sister Cari and Eli as they welcomed their third baby BOY to the world just a few short weeks ago. He is absolutely perfect with his round button nose and head full of hair […]

When your baby sister has a baby, something amazing happens! You see, Gina has always been my ‘little’ sister, but mostly just because of our seven year age difference. In actuality, Gina has always been strong and sure-footed in her own right, and over the years, been someone I’ve come to lean on. When I […]

There is a bit of a baby boom happening around here and its kind of amazing! To think, some of these little ones will grow up together, build forts, play tractors, go camping, and have all sorts of adventures with each other – how fun is that!?! Joining the pack and arriving to the world, […]

Welcome world sweet handsome Michael Alan. This precious little man is the FIRST born to his parents, Mike + Molly and man-oh-man, it is so darn sweet to see how crazy they are about the newest addition to their family.    This session was also a ‘first’ for me and my camera! Molly asked if […]

It’s Monday and my heart is full from this past weekend! Saturday, we celebrated a wedding for my cousin who married his beautiful bride at the Vizcaya in Sacramento and yesterday, we headed to Visalia for the baptism of my sweet niece, Emma. There was LOTS of miles on the road and little sleep in […]

Meet the newest darling of the Coelho family, Carys Diane. A few weeks ago, I had the honor of documenting her newborn portraits at their family’s home in Lemoore, and I loved every minute! Not only was Carys the sweetest sleepiest little darling for me, but she also continued to give sleepy smiles throughout the […]

I ended last week with a post on sweet Savannah, so it seemed fitting to begin this week with another cutie pie that has arrived to town!!!     Meet Ryder Maverick. This sweet little mister made his debut to the world just a few short weeks ago, and was welcomed by his proud new […]

This little guy is quite something. It just so happens he is the THIRD generation to the name Rocky, the SECOND son born to his proud parents Rocky and Lynae, and the FIRST brother to Jay. How sweet is that?!?    I was honored to spend a day capturing his sweetness. Meet Rocky here, weighing […]
