The sign has since changed but still advertises their yummy big PHAT pizza.The owner Mr. Singh and his family are good folks and let me stop for a […]

Laurie is a writer and teaches creative writing at University of Central Florida. The last time we saw each other my now husband […]

…jumping on the bed. I just found the jumping photos as I was prepping the blog post from this family’s portrait session. The six year old and I got to have a little hangout as my son would call it. He jumped on the bed when no one was looking. Nothing like letting off some […]

These are GREAT! I especially love the one of the little boy with his legos, I can totally relate to that one as my little guy is also a lover of Lego. Your black and white conversion is to die for 🙂

Abby’s mom had contacted me about a session over a year back. Finally, the stars aligned and we did their session on an overcast day back in November. Prior to our session, mom had told me a bit about Abby and her two sisters and I was excited to meet them. I was a bit […]
What a beautiful gift you were able to give this family!
Beautiful images! LOve that last one on the bottom right! 🙂
THIS is what it’s all about – this family makes the extra effort needed to capture their beautiful children and their relationship in these gorgeous images that they will love forever! There are many families that don’t have these extra challenges and don’t make the time to do something so meaningful and important.
Ohhh sweet Abby…. my own daughter suffered a traumatic brain injury two years ago as well, and spent nearly 2 months in the hospital – 19 days in a coma, 5 surgeries, and a new prosthetic skull later, we are blessed to have our daughter still in our lives. These images are SO important and beautiful. Remember how lucky Abby is to have such a loving and strong family. She is beautiful and this family makes me smile 🙂
Love the happy joyous moments you were able to capture in this session.
Beautiful work Alpana. I love the connection you have captured here. Such great memories created.

A few impromptu photos of the cousins with my little man during our recent visit to the Marin Headlands after a stop at Muir Woods. The kids spent a little time being silly, laughing, and letting me take a few photos in this lovely meadow. These photos are a mix of digital and film that […]
Oh WOW! You got an early present! What fantastic happy captures, every mom’s dream!
There was a lot of anticipation for this family photo session that mama booked months back scheduled to work around my New York trip in late September. Murphy’s law prevailed and it turned out to be a wet, cold week in the duration of my stay out there. I don’t think I have ever checked […]

I was really excited to work with this family for their signature album session.
