I’m located in San Mateo, CA. I’ve been married 14 years and still prefer my husband’s company to anyone else. I’m a mom of four kids and I adore watching them grow into smart, funny, creative people. When I’m not with them, I’m photographing other families. It’s safe to say I have a thing for that unit of society that lives, loves, and laughs together.
In my life before kids I earned a Master’s degree in nutritional science and worked as a registered dietitian, dabbling in photography only as a hobby. When my first daughter was born, photographing her surpassed any interest I had in health food, and now I find myself in a second career. If I had a third career it would be performing in musical theater, but only if talent weren’t required. A few things…I’m drawn to anything with clean style and great design. Connecting with friends and family on a deep level—touchy, feely stuff—is absolutely necessary for me, as is laughing until it hurts. If an 80’s rock ballad happens to be playing I will not restrain myself from singing along. Peonies, libraries, new shoes, a hard workout, riding bikes, making music, a clean kitchen, baked goods, and chubby babies are among my favorite things … but enough about me. Let’s talk about you![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
