Two baby boys, twice the love! Please join me in welcoming nine month-old brothers Sebastian and Christian and their family to the blog. With “big brother” Sunny the Dachshund, not only did I get my baby boy fix, but my doggie fix, too. Many thanks to Jennifer and Horst for the pleasure. Big hugs to […]

The Jackson Family - December 2006

I rarely use the blog to publish personal appeals, but I think you’ll agree that this one is worthy, and is very close to my heart. Our friends Garry and Suzy Jackson, along with children Wesley (age four) and Molly (age 3), are looking to expand their family with an […]

Perhaps I should have titled this post “The Dillinger and Daniel Show.” Daniel’s big “brother” Dillinger nearly stole the show at our family portrait session today. He is an incredibly loving, well-mannered dog. He definitely added character, but don’t worry, Matt and Joy - it was a well-rounded portrait session and there are some non-Dillinger […]

Heidi and Greg - thanks for a wonderful […]

Please join me in welcoming baby Isabelle and her family to the blog! This was a very special visit; not only did she come down from Los Angeles with her parents, but this was her very first trip to the beach. How cool is that?! It was such a pleasure to meet her and parents […]

What a beautiful, ripe belly! I am so excited that Kyle and Birsen are expecting another child. I photographed their family unit a year ago - time flies! Now that Berlin is about to become a big sister, we’ll have another family portrait session when their newest arrives.
