Hello again. I’m sitting in my sister-in-law’s house in Southern Illinois, having finally come up for air after an incredibly busy season. Thanks again to all of the amazing families and kids I worked with this year. I can’t believe the year went by so quickly. It was my first full year in business and it was way more exciting, challenging, chaotic, and fun than I could have ever imagined. I re-branded in the beginning of the year to Modern Kids Photography, got a tiny but totally sufficient studio of my own, worked with tons of great assistants, spent long nights in the studio (apologies to my husband), and had so much fun photographing all of the country. I can hardly wait for 2010.

Wow. It’s been a much busier season than I would have ever expected. I’m so grateful for all of the business this year and most importantly getting to spend time with so many amazing kids and famillies. This week I’m shooting in Chicago and St. Louis and then back to San Francisco for the a bunch more shoots before the end of the holiday season. Please stay tuned here for more info on holiday ordering, some unique gift certificates, and more!

It’s been so busy over here with non-stop shooting, placing orders, and bookmaking. In fact I’m headed out the door in a few moments to do a family session. We are starting in Noe Valley and jumping on the train and to the Ferry Building and Taylor’s Refresher…so very San Francisco and so very fun!

I hope you’re enjoying Halloween today by stuffing your face with some treats. I wanted to share a few frames from a recent East Bay shoot with Sasha and her little sister, Delaney.

A year ago I had the pleasure of photographing Sasha’s 2nd birthday; a fun, kid-filled event full of costumes and Halloween-inspired cupcakes. I was really excited to see the girls again and even though I see it all the time, I’m amazed how fast kids grow! Enjoy a few photos of these incredibly cute girls!

First, a very big thank you to everyone who came out to Crissy Field on Saturday for our picnic! We had such a perfect day for a party. I can’t think of a better way to spend a Saturday afternoon than giving back a little to all of my wonderful clients from the past year+. Thank you all very much for allowing me to do a job that I absolutely love!

Just a few frames from Lucian’s third shoot this year (as part of his Year in the Life Session). We had great weather, a cooperative little one, and blue bottle coffee (my absolute favorite coffee). Thanks so much to Julie, Matt, and Lucian for another great shoot. Oh and to Ms. Eugenia for assisting (Lucian...

If you’ve been following me on twitter, you’ll remember that I was super excited to be photographing the Great-granddaughter of the Gerber baby. I was so thrilled to finally meet little Cora Margarita on Labor Day. Cora and her family were so much fun during our walk on top of Bernal Hill and so incredibly helpful. Grandma took a few photos of me in action with the help of at least four assistants (1. baby talker 2. baby spotter 3. first assistant with light reflector 4. baby’s personal assistant). I will hopefully be sharing the full post soon including some shots of us in action.

Remember little Esme? I photographed her a few days after she was born (look up to my blog header, she’s in black and white and is adorable). She’s already six months old! I can hardly believe it. She’s as beautiful as ever.
