  • Another Cute One…

    I am back in South Carolina for the week and have been catching up with old friends and their new little humans. This is my friend Katie’s son, Mac, with the cutest blue eyes and absolutely no fear. He continuously tests his mom’s reflexes as he hucks himself down the slide, the stairs and whatever…

  • Ann and her girls….

    This is one of my best friends from high school, Ann, and all her girls… First came Susie…. and you can see her several times on my websites… And then came Allie…. We wanted to make sure Allie, the second child, has as many baby photos as her well documented big sister… so when Susie…

  • Looking East…

    Hello All, I am about to embark on another adventure… this time I am heading East. First I will be in Greenville, South Carolina, then over to the North Carolina coast, then up to Philadelphia, and finally to New York. I would love to add some cute families or fun portraits to my itinerary, so…

  • Expect the Unexpected….

    This is an example of the kind of unexpectedness to expect from the Rollei, which I talked about in the last entry. Not sure what happened, but there is not much photoshop can do for this… so hopefully you like large alien blobs across the only three photos I took on my Rollei of this…

  • Two Midwesterners and Their New California Boy….

    It’s baby time! Seems like everyone we know is multiplying… which is fun for me. Meet Michael, the son of two amazingly talented and loving people. When he gets a little bigger he will no doubt: play music, grow vegetables, go to Antarctica, love hiking, and have cute dimples just like his parents. But for…

  • Expecting….

    I wasn’t able to make it to my friend Tauni’s baby shower a couple of months ago, but earlier she had mentioned she wanted some pregnancy photos, so as a present, I promised we would make it happen. And tonight, three weeks away from her due date, we had our pregnancy photo session with her…

  • We are submitting this week…

    Jude and I met yesterday and picked our top 15 photos to submit to the stock agency in order to hopefully get accepted and hopefully start getting paid for all the fun photo shoots we have been having. Here are 5 of our favorites that have not been posted yet… to see some of the…

  • 15 minutes of Cute Baby Faces…

    Congratulations to our friends Susannah and Rich on making a super cute baby. Elena was born on May 16th and has been keeping them busy and entertained ever since. We invaded their get-away to the Bay this week and arrived just in time for chocolate cake, the sunset, and Elena’s 15 minutes of awake time…

  • The Difference Three Years Can Make….

    When I took this photo of my friend Juliet, almost exactly three years ago, it was hard to even imagine how much all of our lives were going to change. We had no idea who that little human inside her belly was going to be, let alone who the the next one was going to…

  • What does stock photography mean?

    Another Petaluma photographer, Jude Mooney, and I are working on building a library of images to join a stock photography agency (click here to see related posts.) So we have been asking everyone we know to help us by modeling for us so we can have enough photos to join… but some people are hesitant…
