Sweet 16, continued. 🎈

Not only was cake involved — there were also balloons. Same day, second look: Anais switched into sequins and we went big with the numbers.

It's so fun working with people who are willing to collaborate and just make fun stuff. That's when the best images happen.

I'm always open to clients bringing me their fun, unique ideas — let's build something around it. That's what the studio is for.

I photograph milestone and creative portraits in Sacramento, CA — in the studio or on location.

Got a fun idea for a shoot? Tell me below — I'd love to hear it.

Finding genuinely authentic people is hard.

Making new friends after forty is harder.

I won’t lie. I don’t do photoshoots. They bring out every insecurity I own.

But this time I felt safe, supported, and ridiculous.

Usually it’s just the latter. 😂

Thank you @_Chady_ for making me feel beautiful while being completely ridiculous.

The TRUTH Shall Set You FREE.🌀

Free to choose, to decide.
Free to walk away.
Free to say YES when it feels right—and NO when it doesn’t.
Free to stop living by expectations, opinions, and the stories others have written for you.

Free to change your mind.
Free to follow your heart.♥️

And most importantly…

FREE TO BE…..
without apology, without permission, without fear.

Because when you finally choose truth over pretending, alignment over approval, and yourself over everyone else’s expectations…

✨ That’s when real FREEDOM begins.

💃She danced in front of the camera… and suddenly saw it — her shadow moving with her, like it had always been there, waiting to be noticed.

In that quiet moment, she didn’t just see herself… she felt herself. Not through old doubts or familiar stories, but through the eyes of those who truly saw her.

The Queen. 👑
The Goddess. ✨
The Sparkle. 💫
The Magic. 💖

And then it landed softly… like truth always does.

They weren’t witnessing someone new being born.

They were recognizing the woman who had always been there. Something shifted. The energy softened, then expanded. And suddenly, the music wasn’t just playing anymore — it was living through her. 🎵🧑‍🩰✨

Because the deepest truth is this:

You are not becoming what you dream of.
You are remembering that you already are it — and so much more.

Stay in your MORE era. Always. ✨

The ENERGY of Decision 💥🔥
The Glorious ERA

Do Less, BUT do the fewer things with increased intention. Let it run deep. With passion, intensity, fire 🔥 and purpose and watch it ignite. Do it …. Over, and over and over again until you never remember before you did the thing. It has built the new version of you. That’s where the magic lies. 👠👠

WHAT DREAM KEEPS YOU AWAKE AT NIGHT?

Don’t forget what you promised yourself that night. Your passion is going to chase you even when you’re running away from it.

We have dreams to chase. So we pivot, and we find a WAY, and we keep GOING.

In my era of perpetual bloom…🌱

I want more women to taste ambition until it ruins their appetite for mediocrity.

If you want to get anywhere, you’re gonna have to turn your audacity up a few notches babe. That’s just how it goes.

Breathe… and be brave 🩶
