I'm so glad you found me! I'm a San Francisco photographer, and this blog charts my journey in the ever-evolving world of photography. One of the things I love about photography is that it's a journey, not a destination. I'm constantly learning and meeting wonderful people. Please peruse the blog to your heart's content, then check out my website and feel free to contact me! (I love hearing from you.)

Yes, YOU Are Beautiful


So here's the deal. You're beautiful.

You're beautiful and I want to take your picture. All of you. Any of you. Without exception.

I don't care if you think you're not photogenic. You're wrong.

And I'd love to have the chance to prove it to you.

Wordless Weekend - Cyclist


Wordless Weekend - Coastal Fog


Toothsome Thursday


The new s'mores cupcake from our friends at OvenLovin. Um, it's seriously heaven. Way better than a real s'mores. And I don't even know why I'm posting about it, because it just makes me want one.

Now, I doubt it's going to be as good, but here's a recent recipe from SpoonForkBacon for s'mores cupcakes. Looks like it's missing out on all the delicious layered magic of this one, though. Graham cracker, chocolate, some magic, mmmmmm . . .

Camp Royaneh - Our Wedding Location

So THIS is where we're getting married.

Aren't you excited? I'm really excited. It's kind of perfect. Not too formal, with plenty of gorgeous trees and nature around, places for guests to bunk should they choose to spend the night, and it's not too far away. I can't wait, personally.

I just wish the wedding would plan itself. Little chance of that, though.

Yes, it's a Boy Scout camp. Isn't that cute? Evan even went here as a boy scout a couple of times. 

Here's the visitor center. At least I think that's what it's called.


The dining hall. 

Some of the local foliage.
I love all the wooden signs scattered about. They add such a great touch to the place. 

So, you could sleep here! You might want to bring a sleeping bag, though. 

And this is the "chapel." 

Other possible sleeping arrangements. Not the Hilton, that's for sure. 



We will NOT be using the shotgun range. I think that's a wise decision. 





Isn't it great? Where did you get married? Or where do you want to get married if you haven't tied the knot yet?

Animal Love!

More adoptable cuties from the ACC! This is Tayto. He's a love bundle. Really.


And this is Tony. Isn't he gorgeous?




The ACC is the only shelter in San Francisco that also accepts small animals, like rats. These two were super sweet and pretty brave, considering they were meeting me for the first time.
