pretty things, neatly organized, photo shoots with Boon, and more…

Hello out there. What a busy month. I’m currently in Phoenix shooting for a totally awesome kids company, Boon, Inc (more about these guys soon). It’s amazingly hot here but I’m actually enjoying the weather compared to a chilly San Francisco. I’ve been working with such great team at Boon, hanging with a bunch of adorable little ones, and photographing in some lovely, modern homes in Phoenix.

If you’re waiting to hear from me, don’t fret! I’ll be back in the studio soon.

In the meantime, have you stumbled upon Pinterest, yet? I’m so in love with this website because it helps me organize pretty reference imagery for all of my projects. Head over there, now. ;]

welcome baby Whistler, Chicago | modern family photographers

Hello there. I’ve been on the road for a little over a week (apologies if you’re waiting to hear from me). I’ve had a little family time mixed with a few really special shoots. One in particular was baby Whistler in Chicago. Whistler’s parents are dear friends of mine (and the husband) and we have been so happy to welcome him into the world. I can’t wait to share more!

Have a great weekend. I hope you’re enjoying Summer wherever you may be.

I have a mountain of processing to complete but thought I’d share this sweet diptych of Miss Isla. I adore this family and was so very happy to meet them last year to photograph, Sarah Louise. Stay tuned. I feel a flurry of blog posts coming in the next week – I’m finally catching up!

I couldn’t resist posting this image. An old friend of mine from my college days in Minneapolis makes the most incredible handmade bears. She has done so for years and is one of the most creative and talented people I know. She also has an adorable little one named, Claude. I love her blog and her website. Happy Friday!

pretty new landing page | modern family photographer, San Francisco, LA, New York

Hello there! We got a pretty new landing page courtesy of the talented Christine of Darling Studio. I had an idea to showcase some of our imagery as if it were part of a wall gallery. I think Christine did such a great job of translating my vision to the page. That’s always a great feeling when working with a graphic designer. If you haven’t already seen take a peek by clicking here and sign up for our newsletter! Enjoy your weekend!

Wesley, Russian Hill, San Francisco | Modern Baby Photographer San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York

Sarah — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 22:07:10 +0000

I just walked into the studio from a lovely shoot in Russian Hill with a seven month old named, Wesley. He had one of the most unique nurseries I’ve ever seen; full of vintage toys and books plus a lovely Peter Pan wall. He was adorable and such a good model for me. I couldn’t help but to share two images of Wesley and his Mum. Don’t worry I have plenty with Dad and Wesley’s smiling face.

Stay tuned for lots of shoots from the last few weeks.

Wesley and his mom, San Francisco

Last month I had the pleasure of photographing a group of talented, sophisticated, fun, and stylish 8th grade graduates from Black Pine Circle School in Berkeley. It was a lively graduation but we managed to do some graduation headshots and a few images in between. I don’t recall being this hip in the 8th grade. Enjoy!
