One of the things I love about this great thing we call the interweb is the way you can discover amazing, indie cuteness in totally viral ways…case in point, the fabulous Gemmielou (discovered via Tara Whitney) who made some custom little-bee hair clippies for the little bee…so so sweet!!! This is a snapshot, through the window of one of our fave coffee shops with her hair all ruffled after a full day of running around, but I still love it!!



I love my job…

Today is one of those days when I am just tremendously grateful to the universe that I have this gift, and tremendously grateful to my clients that I have the opportunity to witness times of change in their lives in very intimate ways.

This image is simple, but it just makes my heart want to pop. So I’m sharing it with you.

xoxo,

And what an amazing weekend it was…

Wherein yours truly takes a quick break from editing my recent sessions at my favorite cafe in Mountain View to share a few images from the workshop I attended in San Francisco this past weekend (now that I’ve confirmed that it’s kosher to blog the images). I learned soooo much, and had such an amazing time meeting other local silicon valley and bay area photographers (as well as new friends from as far away as Germany! :-) . I am inspired and empowered, and I am so grateful to have found a calling that brings me (and my clients) such joy!
