Mad scientist theme kids birthday party

Just in time for Halloween... a mad scientist themed kids birthday party! It's starting to feel kinda spooky around here so I thought what better time than to share this creative bday party with you. This idea came together so well with all the awesome details that included a brain cake, dry ice beakers and eyeball piñata. The kids had a blast doing all sorts of science experiments.

It was super FUN!!

Fontan family | West Marin portrait photographer

I love these guys! During my trip to the Bay Area earlier this month I had the chance to catch up with old friends and photograph the 2 new additions to their family. Light was perfect... it was sunny (gasp, for anyone that's familiar with summers in West Marin this is very unusual) and the backdrop was absolutely amazing. My home is a beautiful place. Always great to see the Fontans. There is a lot of love here...

 

 

 

Baby Ella | San Diego family portraits

What do you get when you mix a beautiful and happy family with yummy afternoon light, wild spring grass and wildflowers? ... this family session! Everything aligned on this perfect day and wow this has got to be one of my favorite family sessions to date! You may remember these guys from their yoga maternity session at the beach. They are a joy to photograph! And look who arrived...
