find your way AROUND

There is so much I love about photography. Finding the right light, catching a moment, and I get to tell people’s stories. I always admired great writers and wished I could have been one. Someone like J.D. Salinger or Jack Kerouac. Catcher In The Rye and On The Road are two of my most favorite […]

Everyone has something they love and are passionate about. For me, it’s photography. For my very good friend Katie it is fashion. She has been considering starting a blog.

Thriving Discoveries is a party put on by Pleasanton’s independent T-shirt company Thriving Ink in their Backyard venue (The BackYard). On this particular Saturday I ended up enjoying a lovely night with great […]

NYC – so much can be said about this city. There is no place like it in the world. I was fortunate enough to go there for a little R&R and a little photo shooting. Joeleen is so sweet! One of those people who you can just tell is super genuine. She wanted some pictures […]

Jessica and Steve have been dating since high school. I think I have known Jessica just about as long as that too. It’s so cool it see someone growing up in front of your eyes-high school, college and now she is getting marred! I love photographing couples who seems so nervous to be in front […]
