TWINS! Dante + Makena

Photographing toddlers is fun enough, but twins? Double the fun! Twins Dante and Makena were great models-in-training (they're only 18-months old). There were a few meltdowns durning the two hours of shooting but you'd never be able to tell with the photos below. The secret weapon of photographing twins is definitely a combination of juice boxes and goldfish crackers!  Thank you Heather and Tony for sharing your beautiful children!!!

Luke Henry + Baby Sophie = 4!

Andrew and Dokelida Kawaja didn't waste any time starting their beautiful family after their wedding, which I photographed in October of 2007. While I was supposed to photograph the birth of their first baby, Luchie, he arrived early—and on the only weekend I was out-of-town! Luckily, I was there to photograph their second baby, Sophie's amazing arrival to this world! Again, seeing my photos all over the home of Dokleida and Andrew make me thrilled to do what I do!

Baby Olivia looks so pretty in pink!

This is Olivia - or more commonly known as Livi.  Look at those chubby cheeks!  These were taken at her home in Oakland.  It's her first professional photo shoot - just in time for a secret Fathers Day Gift!
