All this rain and gloomy weather is reminding me of Izaac’s senior photo session.I have known Izaac since his 7th grade days, and can’t believe he is going to be graduating South Fork High School soon!

Jose|Senior Portrait Session|Eureka High

I hear it over and over again. I meet with  potential clients and they start to tell me about how they do not feel comfortable in front of the camera and suck at being photographed.  “We don’t know how to pose, we get awkward.” Trust me guys, I get it. I feel the same way about […]

I shot Nick and Larissas engagement photos out on Paradise Ridge, near Shelter Cove.  I asked them where they were getting married and she said, Mount Shasta.  I assumed they were going to hire a photographer from that area, so I was so ecstatic when they asked me to photograph their destination wedding. Mount Shasta […]

Arbuthnot Wedding- Mt. Shasta Resort Golf Course

I was on the South Fork High School football field taking some action shots when Andrew’s dad approached me about taking Andrew’s senior portraits the following year.  I was super excited, because I love senior sports photos. They are my favorite! Flash ahead a year later where we made that happen. We started out on the […]
