Growing up with creative parents, I was encouraged to express myself through art.  I got my first camera when I was 16 and quickly fell in love with photography.  I studied fine art and photography in college and have been fascinated with photographing people since my first formal photography course.  For about 15 years I continued to photograph friends and family and do small photography jobs. 

When I became a mother, my focus naturally shifted to children and families.  In 2004, I decided to turn my hobby into a business and launched Baby Steps Photography.

As a mother I understand how quickly children grow into little people.  When I photograph children, I see them through a parent’s adoring eyes - as extraordinary and beautiful individuals.

I love capturing the many facets of a child’s personality.  Children are so open, uninhibited and eager to show off their endless facial expressions.

It’s a gift when a family allows me to spend part of their day with them.  It’s especially rewarding when I get to take annual photographs and see the children and families grow.

I am a San Francisco based photographer and I travel through out the Bay Area for on location photo shoots.  I specialize in baby, children and family portraits.
