… in mother culture I am doing something that brings JOY into my life so that I can pour that joy and excitement back out onto my children, onto my husband and bring that spirit of HOPE back into my home.

Learning to See – La Mirada Family Photographer
Home is a privileged place to be. I have struggled with being content while being at home. I was constantly on the go when I had 1 little one, then I had 2 little ones and that didn’t slow me down one bit. Then I had 3 little ones and oh my! I barely left…
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…
Focusing on what’s Important this Holiday Season (Orange County Documentary Family Photography)
The forecast mentioned rain today… but I really didn’t believe it. Was I being pessimistic or a realist? I think a pessimist is someone who says “it’s not going to happen, or won’t happen” (when referring to something good or beneficial). As oppose to a realist who makes a judgement or has an opinion based…
Our School Year at a Glance – Morning Time (Homeschooling)
I have had numerous mamas ask me what our school day looks like and what we use as our curriculum. So I figured it would be easier if I wrote a few posts and walk you through it. Our school approach is a mix between Charlotte Mason, unit studies and unschooling. I know those don’t…

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…
Learning to See, a 2018 Project 52 (Southern California Documentary Family Photographer)
I’m finally saying yes to a Project 52 this year! I never committed to one before, I think it’s because in my head I already knew I wouldn’t be able to finish it, so I basically failed before I started. Maybe I have commitment issues… Maybe I just don’t want to be held accountable… Whatever…
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. I received a text in the early morning that labor had begun, but by mid morning the contractions became inconsistent and actually grew further apart. I kept my phone on me because you never know when they…
