Royce Heating & Air Ad

Hi friends,
Last month I got an e.mail from the big guy at Royce Heating & Air for a job. They needed an updated portrait of their "guys in white" for an ad they were putting out in House 2 Home Showcase. I of course excitedly took the job. I hadn't done a big group of guys before but knew it wouldn't be too much of a challenge. Their vision was an image of the guys in their crisp white uniforms in front of the vans in front of a beautiful house. I met the guys bright and early at 8am and we went right to work moving vans in various amounts and positions. The guys were all such good sports and we all had a great time goofing off and getting a few different shots. I think they all turned out great and was so pleased with the ad! I'll post some images here and then post the final page with the ad so you can see it in action! :)

Farmer's Market with Chef Randall Selland

Hi friends!
So last month for House 2 Home Showcase, Betsy (the writer I work with) and I had the pleasure of being showed around at the Farmer's Market. (Downtown Sacramento Every Sunday 8:00 AM - Noon at 8th and W Streets) Chef Randall Selland is the owner of Selland's, Ella's and The Kitchen, all beautiful restaurants that serve fresh ingredients from the Farmer's Market! Today he was shopping for The Kitchen and for his own home as well. Along for the tour were his wife and grandchildren who are always interested in helping out with cooking (Last time Ella & Jackson made Betsy & I homemade Clam Chowder from scratch!), and eating of course (the kids shared a basket of blackberries while at the market). Here are some images from that morning. Enjoy!

Vandenberg Family Portraits

I had the great pleasure of photographing my boyfriend's sister and her family portraits. They are such a sweet, loving couple who have THE most Adorable little boy! We met at a park in Roseville and just had a relaxing time walking, talking and stopping here and there to snap portraits. Afterwards they treated us (the boyfriend & I) to some delish Chipotle for dinner! Enjoy these images!

Hi Friends!

It's been a pretty busy summer for me this 2010! It's been Wedding after wedding after wedding, followed by a family portrait session, then newborn portraits, headshots for a Private Chef and the usual work I do for House 2 Home Showcase magazine. And summer isn't over yet! Still ahead I have two more weddings to attend. (They'll be my 8th and 9th wedding this year!) To be fair to each photo session I will post individual posts dedicated to each session, following this one. Thanks so much for reading, now get on to the next post and enjoy the images!

Hello dear friends!

As usual I'm behind on my blogging! Here are a few photos from my latest works for House2Home Showcase (if you don't have a subscription to this magazine yet, you need to get one now!) First up we have Molly Hawks of Hawks Restaurant. ( http://www.hawksrestaurant.com/ ) She is not only a restaurant owner but also a chef, wife and mother! It was lovely to visit with her and her cutie and photograph them. I hope you enjoy these images as much as I do!





Next up we have Christine Wardlow of Wardlow Tile and Stone ( http://www.wardlowtileandstone.com/) This photo shoot was a little bit different than the work I normally do for the magazine. This time she was looking for more traditional portraits of not only herself but her staff as well. They were used in an ad and article. Here are a few from that day.




And last but not least we have Mr. Kuratomi. He owns an orchard out in Roseville. He was a wonderful tour guide and so much fun to listen to and photograph! You can really tell how much he loves and cares for the orchard and the customers that come in for his wonderful fruit. To read even more about his story check out the article in House2Home Showcase! Here are some of my favorite images from that day! Thanks again for reading!

This semester the photography class that I'm taking is called "Advance Photography" which is aka Studio Photography. We do however have one assignment using natural light. I called up my friend Betsy and asked if she'd pose for me. She took me to this lovely little green belt that she use to jog on and we had a great time just shooting away. Enjoy!

{Chef Tyler Stone}

Hi Friends,

Back in February (the 19th to be exact) I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing Chef Tyler Stone. http://www.cheftylerstone.com/ What is so unique about this Chef is not only his accomplishments but the age at which he made them. He started cooking at the young age of 4 and graduated with his degree from culinary academy with his degree in restaurant management and culinary arts at 13 1/2 and published his first book titled "The Kids Cooking" at 18! He's had the chance to cook for "big names" such as the Maloof's and the Sacramento Kings, John Tesh, The Doobie Brothers and Vice President and Mrs. Cheney. All this and he's still only 21 years old! But these aren't the things he wants to talk about, what he's excited about are children. Working with and educating them about not only cooking great foods but learning how to make healthy, fun meals. He enjoys volunteering his time at at risk schools and inviting the parents to his demonstrations as well so the whole family is getting together, learning and having fun in the kitchen. A great interview and a fun photoshoot. Hope you enjoy them!

ps. I almost forgot! He made us one of the best desserts I've ever had! Chocolate Angel Food Cake with Caramelized Banana Slices and a Cinnamon Foam. It was to die for and the Cinnamon Foam was a delightful light option for heavy whipped cream.
