A friend of mine was joking with me that I should become the staff photographer at Sacramento Parent Magazine because, with the addition of the covers for April and May, I have published eight covers with them (as well as a feature story and an interview). For me, I’m just so honored to have the opportunity and I love to see my beautiful customers gracing the pages of one of Sacramento’s favorite parenting magazines. It gives me little butterflies to walk into my local ice cream shop and see my images on the rack.

Here are my latest covers for April and May. Did you see them around town?

April 2013 (cover, contents and feature):

This Folsom family was so fun to photograph! Do you remember their family portrait session from last year? After the magazine was published, they scooped up as many issues as they could get their hands on and brought them with them to Korea to share with their friends and family overseas – how fun!

May 2013 (cover, contents and article):

Vinita is the beautiful person you see below and she was just glowing for her maternity session in Folsom. My favorite part of their session was including their darling Boston Terrier in the pictures (you know I’m a sucker for those Bostons). I’m so glad they captured this moment in their lives — only to have it enjoyed by thousands of other people — who would’ve known?? Ha!

And another client, Katie, is pictured in the image above (to the right). We found the perfect river spot for her maternity session and caught the light just right. It’s so fun to see these images go from the blog to being published in a magazine!
