Yesterday I had the pleasure of photographing the lovely Edyta Szyszlo – a talented San Francisco based photographer. We had a fun afternoon shooting some updated bio photos for her company. Enjoy the sneak-peek and check back for more very soon. Thanks to Edyta, Lindsay, and Jenna!

p.s. I’m headed out of town for a photography conference in Las Vegas! If you’re another photographer headed to wppi, drop me an email I’d love to meet-up!

Sarah - I changed to the yellow last week (stole it from the new dwr or was it west elm palette), totally coincidental that it coordinated with your lovely set/wardrobe!

little miss Arabel, traveling sessions, Chicago | modern kids photographer

I have the wonderful opportunity of traveling to Chicago to shoot a few times per year. If it’s a wintertime shoot I am usually a little obsessed with the weather the week before I arrive as anyone who has lived there will tell you winter weather can be unpredictable. On my last trip in late November we lucked out with an unseasonably warm weekend. I have a bunch of shoots to share from that trip that I will intersperse with Bay area shoots over the next few weeks. I’ll be posting more frequently so please stay tuned.

Sarah, THANK YOU! we have had many compliments on the pictures. It goes without saying that Arabel warmed up to you so quickly because you are such a kind, approachable person. You have such a good rapport with children and a talented eye for taking unique, memorable photos. Please let us know when you plan on coming back… we have many interested friends.

on being a little sister, kiyomi + mia | modern family photographer, oakland

sister, -noun; a female offspring having both parents in common with another offspring; female sibling.

If this is a the technical definition of ‘sister’ then I would argue ‘little sister’ needs a definiton all its own. It might go something like this:

little sister, -noun; female offspring, prone to lifelong torment of older sister including profound levels of mimickry, stealing of prized possessions including clothing and jewelry, never-ending admiration and obsessive tendencies toward older sister, and last but not least dramatic personality traits which are known to cause great duress to older sister.

Kim - wow sarah! i love how you put the pix together on your blog and i especially love the ‘lil sis’ series and your sweet reflection on being a sister yourself ;) …i’m sure your personal experience had a lot to do with how well you were able to capture what is so precious and special about the girls’ relationship (that, and you are an amazing photographer!!) thanks again, for everything…we can’t wait to come visit you at your studio!

Faith in Sonoma, sneak peek | commercial kids photographer, san francisco

I couldn’t help but share a few quick selects from Faith’s shoot in Sonoma. Faith is a kids model for City Models, here in San Francisco and most recently was the cover image for the Crewcuts catalog this summer. She is such an awesome kid, mature beyond her years, and so fun and easy to work with.

don’t let his serious face fool you, this kid is all smiles | commercial kid photographer, san francisco

I had so much fun yesterday photographing a handsome young man named Ryan Nelson for a local modeling agency. We shot in three separate locations around the city but my favorite was outside of St. Francis Fountain in the Mission. Thanks again to the owners and staff of SFF for accommodating us and for making the excellent sundae! Thanks as well to Eugenia for assisting and to Megan and Annemarie for the incredible styling and wardrobe. Last but not least to Ryan and his mom for being so fun to work with! We hope you enjoyed the afternoon as much as we did!
