Imagine photographing your family at home, in an environment that feels familiar, cozy, and completely your own. Bare feet running around, afternoon light drifting through open windows, kids playing where they feel most themselves.

These sessions don’t have to take place at home, though they can. They can happen anywhere in California that feels meaningful and easy — a place your family frequents, loves, and knows well. And if you’re not sure where that might be, I’m always happy to help you choose.

I photograph family sessions on digital and film, documenting life as it unfolds naturally. No forced poses, no asking anyone to perform. I’m simply there — like a friend hanging out with a camera — quietly observing, making space, and letting the day be what it already is. But I will sit with you and help guide the session so don’t fret!

What you’re left with isn’t just photographs, but a memory of a beautiful day at home. A way to slow time when it feels like it’s moving too fast. A perfectly imperfect retelling of real life, captured honestly and with care.
