Chelsea and Tony had the quintessential pandemic wedding experience - they got engaged right at the start of the pandemic and had their online ceremony a year in. Now they’re expecting a baby this fall and wanted to get some photos to capture their lives in this season of their relationship as they anticipate a whole new chapter...
Read MoreSan Francisco Maternity Session | Amanda + Chris
I recently had the pleasure of photographing Chris and Amanda for their maternity session in San Francisco! We met on a windy afternoon in the iconic Lovers Lane - you know it’s a hot spot when there are several other sessions going on at the same time :D These two were absolutely naturals in front of the camera - laughing to themselves, whispering jokes to make each other laugh as I set up shots, and even sneaking in a kiss or two without my prompting ;)

Gosh do I love it when I get to photograph the same couple through different seasons of life! I was privileged enough to photograph my dear friends Jackie and Alex for their engagement session a few years ago, and now they are expecting their first baby!! 🥲 We managed to find a morning in the middle of the stormy weather that has been hitting the Bay Area recently to go out and commemorate this precious season…
Read MorePalo Alto Cactus Garden Maternity | Elaine + Gene
During this COVID season, I’ve been honored to work with multiple families who have little ones on the way (since those babies won’t wait for SIP to be over to make their arrival ;) ) and I loved the excuse to come back to the Stanford Cactus Garden in Palo Alto for another maternity session! Elaine and Gene are expecting their first child in the next few weeks…
Read MoreSan Jose Rose Garden Maternity | Christine + JP
Christine, JP, and I actually went to high school together (#gowildcats hahaha) so it was nice to reconnect and catch up at the San Jose Municipal Rose Garden years later. These two are expecting their first baby this month, so amidst all the craziness of the global pandemic, we got together for a socially distanced maternity session. Christine was absolutely glowing in her floor-length blue gown from Rent the Runway!
Read MoreCupertino Maternity Mini Session | Jennifer + Adam
You may remember Jennifer and Adam from past appearances on this blog - I had so much fun with them at their Windy Hill engagement session (psst - does that pink dress look familiar? ;) ) and their Quadrus Conference Center wedding back in 2018. So when Jennifer messaged me about doing a maternity session in the fall, I couldn’t wait to see them again!
The timing worked out so that they were able to join my second annual round of mini sessions in early winter! I always love the opportunity to serve multiple families during the busy holiday season and to get them some updated photos for their holiday cards. Congrats Jennifer and Adam on the beautiful new addition to your family :)
