San Francisco and Marin Family Adventure Photographer
Photographic Experiences for Adventurous Families
I met the Wasim family last year when our children started pre-school together. Little Ayza is just about the cutest little girl you will ever meet. She has an adorable bubbly smile and beautiful eyes. I was super excited when they asked me to photograph her and her new twin baby sisters. … Continue Reading →
Every super hero has a secret lair - Batman has the Bat Cave, Superman has the Fortress of Solitude and even the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have their home in the sewer lines.

I really enjoy seeing a couple that is so connected as they are. Not only does it make a make a maternity … Continue Reading →
This portrait session goes down as one of the great lessons learned - always be ready and never give up. Saturday started off as crazy rainy day in San Francisco. Dark, blustery and definitely not a day for a family portrait session. The Laffan Family lives right in the middle of the Mission … Continue Reading →

But what I see in amid all that uncertainty is the love and tenderness from and for everyone involved. There is just nothing like … Continue Reading →
"It's the biggest dog park in the world" Tracy said when we were discussing options for her portrait session with her husband Scotty and their two dogs Ginger and Angus. Being relatively new to the dog world in San Francisco, I was a bit skeptical but I'm always up seeing new places so we agreed … Continue Reading →
