Birth Stories and Postpartum Recovery (Orange County Birth Photographer)
I’ve been a professional photographer since 2010 but didn’t start documenting birth stories until 2013. My friends were always pregnant right at the end of my pregnancies or just after I had a baby. So when they had their babies I was ready with my camera! I focused on maternity and posed In Home Newborn…
Woodland Themed Baby Shower (La Mirada Maternity, Birth and Newborn Photographer)
I just love the woodland theme! You can dress it up, dress it down, make it for a girl or for a boy. It’s just so versatile! The nice part is a lot of the decorations were things that were gathered from different households (Grandma, sisters, mama) or foraged from a nature walk. I love…
Featured – A Birth Story & Fresh 48 (Southern California Birth Photographer)
Sweet girl was born just before midnight.
She was so aware and wanting to see what was going on. She even was checking out me and my camera, but she especially wanted to stare at her mama who she had heard and already knew for so long already.

My Photography Journey (Southern California Documentary Family Photographer)
When I was a little girl I would take pictures of my cats. I would pose them on this little wicker end table and use almost a whole roll of film just on them. Then when I was a little older I always took pictures of clouds. Those big fluffy clouds that had pictures in…
Featured Story – Amelia’s Home Birth Story (Orange County Birth Photographer)
I love documenting the birth day of the a precious babe. It’s always surrounded by so much love.

Belly Stories and Big Sister Cuddles – Southern California Maternity Photographer
Jen contacted me when she was already in her last month of pregnancy. She was going to forgo maternity pictures this time (2nd baby) and just focus on the newborn session but she started to feel guilty that she wouldn’t have pictures to look back on during her pregnancy with her son. She said she…
