San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, New York, Modern Baby, Kids & Family Photographer. Commercial & Editorial Kids Photographer.
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 to the world. I can’t wait to share more!
So adorable, no surprises!
love at first sight with that luggage photo!!!
Thanks, Edyta! The luggage was already in Lezlie’s living room. They’ve had those great suitcases for years. I love finding existing props rather than sourcing them for family shoots in particular. 
Thanks, Kristen! It’s not hard to photograph that family! Great to see you in Chicago!
Sarah your endless energy, boundless creativity and fantastic artistry never cease to amaze us. You went above and beyond to capture the sweetest pictures of Whistler. His worn out parents can not thank you enough!
I found you in a brazilian blog (I’m brazilian)… so cool work! congratulations, a lot of inspiration. I would like to photograph children, I’m just starting to learn how. Nice to meet you! (sorry about my English, a little bit horrible):)
Karla thanks so much for the comment! I’m glad you found me! It’s been so busy over here I wish I could share more on the blog. Hopefully, my time will start to free up a bit. Please stay in touch and thanks again!! S.
I’m playing catch-up today after being out of the studio for five days but I had to share a few images from our shoot with Dwell Magazine at DwellonDesign, Los Angeles, 2010. We were a part of the Modern Family Zone and photographed close to 200 kids and families. Enjoy a few of my favorites....

Hi there!
It’s been a busy week. I’m in LA photographing kids in the Modern Family Zone of the Dwell on Design conference. If you’re headed to the event, please stop by! My friend Stephanie Howard and I are photographing kids all weekend long. We’re lucky to be next to great companies such as Paul Frank...

Sarah! This is so awesome!! Congrats and enjoy your weekend in LA. 
Greetings Modern Kids Photography,
My family and I were at the 2010 Dwell on Design conference at the Los Angeles Convention Center on Saturday and were photographed. Where would we be able to see our pictures?
Thank you,
Javier Sáenz
Thanks for taking my son’s photo at the Dwell on Design! It was really fun and nice to see you. The event was awesome! so inspiring and beautiful.
Hi Kiko!
Thank you for participating! We had such a fantastic time. We’ll have images available early next week. Please stay tuned!
Thanks, Javier! It was great to meet you and your family. We’ll have images early next week!
Hey Anna! I’ll be in Chicago at the end of this month. I’m not shooting much on that trip, however. I’d love to say hello!
I’m off to Southern California for a few shoots and a visit with friends. I’ll be back online Monday afternoon. Enjoy a few images from yesterday’s family shoot in Kentfield. What a wonderful family, beautiful home, great kids, and chickens! Thank you to Jessica and Kai and the rest of the family.

Awesome! We have a few family friends who are raising chickens this year as well. The kids love to help out! How fun for you to capture this time in their lives.
Thanks for the comment, Chelsey! It does seem like a fun way to involve kids AND get delicious fresh eggs all the time. I’m working on my husband to get a few chickens when we finally finish our house…we’ll see. ;]
I had so much fun shooting in New York. I photographed a bunch of wonderful families (more images to come) and met with a soon-to-be associate photographer for Modern Kids. Her name is Kara and she is so utterly fantastic! A perfect match for our company. More on Kara soon…
