    Conga Dance
    • Oct 28, 2019

    Conga Dance

    Life is like a Conga dance.  It is rhythmic.  It moves in a direction — can be right or wrong, and sometimes moves erratically.  You’re part of a larger group, made up of family and friends.  Even when you’re not in the mood for it, it always turns out alright. Jennifer and Jonathan and their J-kids are first-time clients, and they arrived with THE best attitude:  willing to try anything! This is what I sounded like throughout their shoot:  “Ooh ooh, I have an idea!”  And som

    All The Feels

    Jeff and Louisa’s shoot this weekend with their 6-year old talkative charmer and 3-year old living doll (heehee) had all the feels. There was loud laughter, running and playing, a few tears, some fearful hesitation of bugs and grass, and lots and lots of joy.  Or was it snacks?  Lots and lots of snacks.  😉 My favorite things that happened were: 1.  Jacob told me he “loves mommy and you”.  That’s ME!  Me!  How adorable is that?!! 2.  Little Kate gave me a long gentle hug to

    The Way They Are

    I had another fun playdate, I mean, photoshoot with my little buddies, Rory and Dex!  🙂 This time, it was at their mom’s workplace, which was truly the coolest office building ever.  It’s like workplace-meets-Disneyland, a place where innovation and productivity can blossom.  Get this:  there was a Library, gardens, a gym, Laundry Room, THE coolest chairs everywhere, gorgeous artwork, and even a Game Room!  Danny and I had to pick our jaws off the ground and ran around like

    Endearing

    [ENDEARING:  adjective.  Manifesting or evoking affection. To give rise to love.  Beloved.] That is the word that perfectly sums up Joe and Yolanda’s family. I’ve photographed this endearing family for 11 years, and there have been many changes — but one thing that has remained a constant, and that is the strength of their bond. For their shoot this year, we brainstormed all week and ended up at a location that was pretty much in their backyard!  What a little gem, and at gol

    Sunshine and Cacti

    Sunshine and Cacti

    Roberta and Alex wanted to have their shoot in Arizona where they’d be around cacti and the warm sun. Except we didn’t go to Arizona, and it wasn’t very warm.  🙂 We did, however, find cacti, and it was SO COOL.  It looked like we walked into a page of a Dr. Seuss book.  Oh, two out of five of us got pricked though.  (This story has taken a turn.)  One was to a child’s finger and drew blood, and one was on an old lady (ehem!) who thought the long leaf would bend when she walk
