I look forward to Jared and Michelle‘s fall family session every year! Jared is Farmer J’s brother (also a farmer!), and it is so much fun to have their family all to myself. Whenever my children are around, it is hard to get any one-on-one time with my niece and two nephews. I love it […]

One of my favorite sessions of the year always goes to my brother-in-law, Jared, and his wife, Michelle.

The temperature was still warm, so pulling off fall clothes may have felt like a challenge, but everyone still had smiles on their faces.

Photography Sessions are always a highlight of my day. This may have something to do with the fact that I spend the majority of the day with a busy toddler.

California State University, Chico, is starting to look a lot like springtime! There were blossoms blooming and little signs of green that spring was not far away. Kelsey and Ryan met through a friend that worked with Ryan in the California State University, Chico, dining hall. They got married in San Diego on a rainy […]

It has been years since I had been to Marianne and Conway’s home in the Willows area. At the time, they only had two sons; and they had not moved into their gorgeous country home that looks like something Chip and Joanna would have created. Since then, Marianne and Conway have added a daughter and […]
