Nature Girl ~Davis, California Senior Photography
February 8, 2010Yesterday afternoon the clouds parted and the lighting became magic for my senior session. She wanted lots of nature, so we headed to the redwoods section of the arboretum. First order of business was a few shots with the boyfriend.

And then the sisters. You may recognize the sister on the left from her senior session a few months ago.

Maybe I still have my recent cruise on the mind where I was bombarded with Titanic references, but doesn’t she look just like a young Kate Winslet? Gorgeous!



Gorgeous–she’s just gorgeous! Love that last one:).
These are just stunning, Megan! Gorgeous girl, great light and colors!
Gorgeous girl and gorgeous shots Megan! The lighting is fantastic!

The winners and a “see you soon”!
January 30, 2010Wow! Thats all I can say about the blog contest. It was intense and I was worried for a while there about a 4 way tie! Votes were almost double what they’ve been in the past coming in at 467. Number 6 was the grand prize winner getting herself a free session and $100 print credit. Rounding out the winners circle are number 4 and number 3. Congrats guys!! Now its the time many of you have been waiting for. Using random.org I picked one lucky commenter to win a free session. The lucky winner is….commenter 1! I’ll be in touch soon Naomi!
Now comes the “see you later” part. I am currently posting from the balcony of my stateroom on the Oasis of the Seas. That’s right, I’m taking a cruise baby! We’ll be happily soaking up rays for an entire week. Please bear with me if I dont respond to emails and calls until after the 6th. And because what is a post without a picture…here is my view. We haven’t left port yet.

Best of 2009 contest!
January 22, 2010Wow, where did the year go? I went through the blog and picked some of my favorite images from 2009. There were so many great shots that I wasn’t able to include all my clients. Never fear however…if you don’t see yours your didn’t have the chance to book a session in 2009 with me I have something for you too. Thats, right, I’m shaking things up this year. Instead of one winner there will be four! Thats right…four! The top three images with the most votes will win a free session with me (a $100 value!). To keep things interesting the one picture with the most votes overall will also get a $100 print credit. Where does the fourth winner come it? If you are local leave a comment on the blog. I’ll randomly draw one winner for a free session as well. I’ve picked favorite images, now it is time to vote for YOURS! To vote just scroll down past the pictures and click on the box next to the number of the picture you choose.
The contest will run through January 28th and will end at 11:59pm. To keep things fair, only one vote per household please! And don’t be tempted to vote more because I can check IP addresses. Sending your family and friends on over is totally legit though. Have fun and get voting!

Goodbye 2009! ~Sacramento, CA family photographer
January 2, 2010I normally blog my sessions the same evening or day after they are done…so I’m sure this family has been anxiously waiting for these! For my last session of 2009, we started in Old Sac for some fun relaxed pictures around town, and then went back to their place for more formal portraits.
