Then and Now

Jane and I are so lucky to have photographed these two siblings since they were wee tots--they are now maturing into mature and delightful children who love each other so much!  We have the best time in the studio whenever they stop by as their parents know that in the blink of an eye they will be teenagers.............

Home Sweet Home


This is Monty 'before' and 'after' his adoption at the RBARI shelter in Oakland.  His loving family has nurtured him to be the healthy and happy dog he is today and he has a best friend  Sami who plays and snuggles with him every day!

Loving Siblings

This sister and brother came to our studio when they were very young and we took immense pleasure, many years ago, in creating heirloom wall portraits for their mom and dad.  Now, they are back in the area, and posed once again--it was so wonderful to catch up and hear about their studies and careers.  Their parents are thrilled with the results and once again, the images will hang on the wall and this moment in time will always be remembered.

Puppy Love

This family came to the studio to have their children photographed with their pets.  We love that they chose to adopt rather than buy from a pet store (all that they sell are from puppy mills) or a disreputable breeder.  Because of their actions, two less dogs were put down because of over-crowding in the shelters.  We applaud them for their stand to love these pets!

Annual Photo Session!

We have been lucky to photograph the two younger children since they were tiny tots and big sister has always been a most mature and calming influence for us when we create images of the three siblings.  Mom brings them in every year to sit for portraits so that she will always have the memories of their childhood on her walls.

My Beautiful Grand-daughter

My grand-daughter has reached a milestone and we celebrated with portraits in the studio.  At the end of her first year, we will create a 'Yearbook' of the past 12 months and a beautiful slide show with original music and lyrics by her talented mama and papa!

Wonderful Family!

 This is one of our favorite families!  They came to us when their daughter was born and then when their second, a baby boy joined the trio, we were there to photograph each of their first years.  They have books and wall portraits of those most special moments--with grandparents and relatives from Korea included.  When the memories fade, they will always have these permanent and magical images as a reminder of the past.
