2015 Year in Review

I have a really hard time picking my favorites from each shoot, but it’s a great exercise to review your work from time to time. This is the first installment of what I hope becomes an annual tradition – picking JUST ONE photo from each of my shoots from the past year, be it a business portrait […]

Morgan + Cliff (Engagement Photography) @ Natural Bridges Beach, Santa Cruz, California

Wow, there were so many keepers from this romantic and sexy engagement session, I had such a hard time picking my favorites. Cliff pulled some strings to get a last-minute photo permit to shoot at Natural Bridges, one of Santa Cruz’s most amazing natural parks; it’s got it all – fields, pine trees, sycamore groves, […]

Petrea + Shawn = Sasha > Cody (Family Photography, Natural Bridges, Santa Cruz)

The Brown family was a pleasure to shoot and hang out with at the ever popular Natural Bridges State Park Beach in Santa Cruz, California. The park has everything – green fields of grass (in the spring), huge trees, fallen dead wood, blossoming flowers, a marshy pond, monarch butterflies and of course the beach with […]

Mike + Fera = Madina > Mehdi > Rayhana (Family Portraits)

Mike and Fera own Arya Restaurant in Cupertino where I took pictures of their food and interiors last may. With a crazy busy restaurant schedule, we’ve been planning the family photo shoot for almost a year now! Well today we finally synchronized schedules and met up at Natural Bridges Beach in Santa Cruz. Their three […]

Robin + Robert = Riley (Family Photography)

When I met up with this great little fam at Natural Bridges, I knew this little girl, Riley, was gonna make me earn my money – she’s got spunk, a little firecracker – and I loved photographing her. She breathes life into the family, much to her parents’ frustration at times I’m sure – but […]

The Barca-Halls (Family Photography)

This is the most athletic family I’ve captured in quite some time – in fact, five of them are gymnasts! I’m thinking the whole family could go on the road with their own circus act with the talent they’ve got under one roof. With 14 people to capture, I had my work cut out for […]

Eleanor + Jeff = Romio > Gloria > Domonic (Family Photography)

I’ve been friends with Jeff and Eleanor since freshman year in college. Eleanor was one of my art major friends, and Jeff was one of my engineering major friends. It’s pretty cool that those two circles eventually merged to create this wonderful, dynamic family. They have three fantastic kids, and I really enjoyed spending some […]

Carrie + Steven = Maya > Ryan (Family Photography)

Carrie and Steven are good friends of recent family photography clients of mine here in Santa Cruz, so I was happy to capture some precious moments between them and their little rugrats, Maya and Ryan. It was chilly out, but we had blue skies and puffy white clouds floating above – and these guys really […]

Michelle + George = Wyland (Family Photography)

Wyland is such a cute little kid, and so well behaved during our one-hour family photography session at Natural Bridges beach in Santa Cruz. The weather has been rainy on and off, but we lucked out this evening with some dramatic clouds and almost no wind. Here’s some of my favorite photos below, there’s 89 […]

The Queen Family (Portraits)

The Queen family drove over from Gilroy to get their professional family photos done at the beach. They’d already had to take one rain check (literally, because of rain!), so Marcia was concerned about the weather as it was yucky in Gilroy. But as is often the case, the weather in Santa Cruz was the […]

The Thompsons (Family Portraits)

I first met David and his boys at Frederick Street Park by my house, and as dads will do, we got to talking. Actually, dads tend to ignore each other (and their kids), preferring the company of their smartphones – but in this case we struck up a conversation and found out we had a […]

Michael + Cindy (Portraits)

Michael lives and works here in the U.S., but he maintains a long distance relationship with his girlfriend, Cindy. It’s not a case of San Francisco vs. San Jose, either – she lives in Hong Kong! So to celebrate her visit (and probably so he remembers what she looks like after she’s gone!) Michael hired […]

The Day-Schell Family

After an extremely wet Santa Cruz weekend, I was dubious about this morning’s 9am session with the Day family. But when I spoke with Patti (resident Grandma), she sounded peppy and ready to go, so I figured if they could do it, I certainly could! Patti and her husband Paul moved to Santa Cruz a […]
