While I specialize in weddings and elopements, I’m also a Sacramento family photographer when my schedule allows!! I absolutely love family photos and each fall I find my schedule full of incredible families looking to document their growing family for the holiday season!!!

As a wrap-up to this year, I wanted to share photos from some of my family, branding, and grad photo sessions!

Sacramento family photos

Each fall, I open mini sessions at a variety of locations on different dates so that families have a variety of options! This year, I had sessions at a small forest in Davis, an open field in Folsom, and the Capitol state park. Here are some of my absolute favorite images that remind me why I feel so incredibly lucky to be in touch with so many amazing people!!!

Grad Photos

While I took on several grad photo sessions this year, Haley’s was my last one of the year! She’s graduating from Sacramento State and wanted to have some photos taken on campus. I absolutely adore grad photos, there’s something extra exciting about celebrating this milestone! Plus it’s just so much FUN!!! The energy of grads is pretty much unmatched!!

Branding Photos

Similarly, I took on a few branding sessions, but here are two of my favorite and most recent photoshoots. These two women are KILLING it and I had to share them and their gorgeous work here!!

Julia launched her tablescape company this year and used her own home as the backdrop for her photos!! This worked perfectly since her home is already decorated in accordance with her design company!

Chelsea is launching her ayurvedic practice and decided to rent out a space for her photos! She brought tons of her own props that she will be using in her work often. We also headed to a nearby park so we could capture her outside as well!!
