As They Are 

Before the holidays, I'm turning my camera toward the people who matter most to you: your children and grandchildren.

These are editorial-style studio portraits for the children in your life, without the pressure or formality of a traditional shoot. I gently direct each session in my private downtown Pleasanton studio, so they feel at ease and the portraits feel refined, natural and quietly elevated. Every image is hand-retouched and delivered in black and white, ready to frame.

For family portraits, wardrobe changes or more creative range, ask me about a scheduling private session.

This series is offered exclusively to my clients, newsletter community and the friends they refer.

15-minute Studio Session $650:

• Up to 2 children per session, siblings or cousins, ages 2 to 18

• 6 hand-retouched, high-resolution black and white images of your choice, ready to print and frame.

• Option to purchase the full gallery

• Images delivered before the holidays

• Full payment due at booking

• Only 10 sessions available, on select dates in October, November and early December. If none of the available times work for you, add yourself to the waitlist on the calendar below and I'll do my best to help.

Important info:

• All bookings are non-refundable. If you need to reschedule, please text or call the studio at least 48 hours before your session, and I'll move your booking to another available date in the series. Changes made less than 48 hours before your session are not eligible for rescheduling.

• Sessions begin and end on time. If you arrive late, your session will end at its scheduled time.

• Sessions are for children only. If you'd love a portrait with parents or grandparents, ask me about a private family session.

• If you have more than 2 children, please book back-to-back sessions, each at $650. If you don't see two open times together, text or call the studio.
