Mason was 2 weeks old in this image. It's hard to believe that this handsome little man is one now! We wanted to go for a clean classic look throughout his session. His mama did fantastic job on his wardrobe.

About Lisa

I am a lucky Mommy of one boy and two girls. Their names are Carter, (6) Cambria, (3) and Caia, (pronounced Kai-a who is almost 2) My life is busy, but it’s the way I like it. I always wanted to be a Mommy. I grew up imagining a large dinner table during the holidays with my grown children with families of their own. Family is super important to me and has always brought a lot of joy into my life. ​I enjoy time on any lake ( really any body of water) , spending time with people, and putting back a bottle or two of wine with my friends. My husband Christian calls me his social butterfly. Christian and I met in Sacramento while we were in college and have now been married for 12 years. He is my best friend and an incredible father. In 2010 I begun my attendance at the Academy of Art University, San Francisco. I studied under some of the industries top talent . It was there that I discovered my love for portraiture.

The love between siblings runs deep...I got so lucky to capture this moment of my two boys as they strolled to another spot to take some more photos. They may fight like crazy at times but times like these make it all worth it.
This photo of my boys was taken this past fall. Photographing your own children isn't the easiest because they tend to be silly and uncooperative but I got a few good ones including this one. I love capturing their fun spirits and love for one another. I hope they stay this close forever.
Gone fishing! Being a fishing fan myself I was thrilled when mom and dad brought out these props to incorporate into the photo shoot.
Sisters - a bond that is unbreakable!
This picture was a special request from mom as she is the Yankee fan in the family. I love the he is awake :)
I love this prop for baby girls! Mom requested this set up as part of the newborn session so how could I resist!

We feel blessed to portray innocence and sweetness in each photo.<br /> "I think that what is called beauty, resides only in the smile."<br /> --Leon Tolstoi--<br /> If we can draw a smile through a photo we are happy!

It was very important for baby's parents to have a few images of their new little one with his big sister. Fortunately, this adorable little girl was the sweetest and proudest big sister I have ever met, so we were able to capture some really precious moments between her and her little brother.
As I am based in the Washington, D.C metropolitan area in the United States, which is famous for, among other things, the pink cherry blossom trees that bloom around the national monuments in the spring, this little sweetheart's mom and I couldn't resist the idea of a cherry blossom wreath for her session. As this little girl was about 6 weeks old at the time, we thought that perhaps she might be awake and alert for the photos but, as soon as I wrapped her up, she fell right asleep and started flashing me beautiful, gigantic smiles like the one you see in this image!

This little sweetheart was a dream at seven days new. Her skin tone was perfect and her cheeks so pleasantly plump, I knew I had to photograph her in the potato sack pose. She did not disappoint!
She just adores her older brother! Taken at a recent family session, this image is one of my favorites. You can feel the affection they have for each other. I love being able to capture these candid moments for families.
Adorable Asher and Bexley are not twins, but actually cousins born to sisters just 30 hours apart. While we conducted individual newborn sessions for each of them, we wanted to have a few of them together for the family to document their closeness at birth.
This image was a surprise for the family who are Star Wars fans. Little Ben's nursery is decorated in the same motif, so when Mom indicated she was bringing this outfit, I knew exactly what I wanted to create. I just love this composite and the family is over the moon.
Hazel is the daughter of a good friend so I wanted to make sure to capture an image that she would love. It was Spring and I had ordered this bunny bonnet specifically for Hazel's session and I could not wait to use it. When I put it on her, it was perfect! She was just adorable and the session was a dream.
This little sweetheart's mother wanted to incorporate her wedding gown into an image for her newborn session. As she may never actually wear the gown in the future, this image is a precious memory for her parents.
I love the simplicity of this image. Sometimes I need to remind myself to step back and enjoy the session. Baby was getting fussy, so I just let him relax and fall into a deeper sleep. The result is a gorgeous image.
This pose is my favorite for the new Dad. It really shows the contrast of just how small baby is. Safe and secure in Dad's hands.
Jayedis is in one of my favorite props to use. There are a variety of ways to style this little tub. For little girls, I love the floral arrangement and her parents loved it as well.
This little sweetheart has the perfect complexion for these lovely pastel colors. I have been photographing her since she was a newborn and she is a doll.

This Little Forest Fairy image was created for a contest named "The Magic World". I wanted everything to seem real, that's why even the wings were made of organza. The contest ended long ago, but the image is still liked by many parents who often choose it for their girls' photo opportunities. In this photo you can see Baby Vika as a little forest fairy.
I've known Baby Milena from her birth. Last March she became the first model I photographed on my own. The photo opportunity photo shoot took us a long time, but it was really lively and natural. In this photo you can see three-month-old Milena.

This is little Martina. She is half Ecuadorian, half Ukrainian. I met her when her parents came to my studio for a newborn session and they came back exactly 6 months later. She's one of the prettiest little girls I've ever met and the owner of a smile as bright as the sun. This picture was printed on canvas as a gift for her Ukrainian grandparents who met her for the first time 2 weeks after this photo shoot. I'm so happy for being part of such a tender moment.
Matias came to my studio for his Newborn photo shoot with his mom and grandmother. He was so peaceful and sleepy! His mom calls him Teddy Bear, that's why I tried to give her this special picture of his newborn son.
Domenica is a niece of my heart. Her mom and dad are two of my best friends and they brought her to my studio for a Newborn session when she was 12 days old. This little lady was just the best! She went into this perfect froggy pose so easily that I couldn't believe it. Just beautiful to me!
Baby Antonia was 15 days new in this pic. His uncle is one of my colleagues, a fine wedding photographer. He asked me to take his niece's newborn pictures as a gift for his brother and sister in law. The result made us both very happy. She is one of the sweetest baby girls I've ever photographed, simply beautiful!
This boy's picture was a true challenge. He doesn't like photographers at all, but his mom wanted to keep a memory of him at this age. I had to play a clown, become his friend and give him confidence before getting this image, after two hours of hard work. Of course, the environment helped a lot: the beautiful train station in Quito. The final image is one of my finest pictures ever.
This sweet baby girl is one of the most beautiful newborns I've had in my studio lately. She is very paceful and pretty. Mom and dad were delighted with her photoshoot. Mom is Ecuadorian, dad is Colombian, so this particular pics are going to her grandparents in Bogotá. I feel honored and grateful they chose me to keep these tender memories.
Sweet little Emma was 13 days new when she came to my studio for her newborn photoshoot. Mom and dad asked me to try a froggy pose with her. Luckily, she was very sleepy and dad helped all the time to get this beautiful image. I'm very happy with the final result.
Baby Thiago, 13 days new. I took his sister's newborn pictures almost two years ago. His parents decided to come back and we made a wonderful photo shoot. I loved this beautiful baby! He is sleepy, charming and also a very handsome little guy. This time I wanted to try something darker, with shadows and light to increase interest on the baby. I only have to say thank you to his family for choosing my studio again.
Baby Olivia came to my studio for her Cake Smash photoshoot. Charming little girl, she smiled at my camera all the time. Her parents are two of the finest jewelry artists of the country, and they were looking for a simple and beautiful session. We all are very happy with the results.

I was going for a vintage theme and baby Londyn at 14 days old was the perfect baby for it. Totally sweet and easy to photograph she dreamed away in her perfect little bed of fire tipped orange roses.
I was so excited when momma came to me a few months ago wanting me to photograph her new baby boy. She requested that I do something for daddy because he was a career lineman. I had one of my best vendors whip up an outfit and I intended to just put baby in daddy's work belt like so many other photographers before me but then something clicked during his newborn session and I quickly grabbed up props I had and captured this darling photograph. Who would have thought that it would have be as popular and unique as it is!
Oh this cute baby was a treat! Momma requested nautical theme to match baby's nursery and he slept away in his little comfy dream boat.
Oh the beautiful baby Aivlee! She's one of my hello baby milestone planners and this was a custom set up for her 6 month photoshoot. She's totally gorgeous in this soft pink set up.
This is the beautiful Baby Juliana, nestled sweetly amongst the flowers, butterflies, and jewels. A portrait fit for a princess.
Sweet girl came in and was like a dream wrapped up wearing a vintage inspired bonnet in the potato sack pose. I can tell she's going to be a great beauty someday like her mom.
Baby girl is the smallest baby I have photographed to date over the years at 5lbs and this is one of my favorite portraits to date. Sweet girl is in a simple knit bonnet with a purple princess flower set up and vintage ivory bed.
I'm a sucker for fun theme inspired sets. When daddy is StarWars biggest fan then you just can't help but dress baby up as the famous Princess Leia.

Photography for me is a way of looking at the world and see the beauty and aesthetics in it , I learned to develop a special look and make details and unrepeatable gestures. Over time, my passion was forged in what is now my profession. All my sessions are different and enjoy a very special way to each of them for giving me the opportunity to leave a unique memory of those children.

I did not expected the dog to come to the shooting, but when I saw it I knew it would be a great opportunity to have something different, something special. The only thing I had to do was to wait... Wait for the perfect moment to come. This is one of the most important aspect of this art: patience. <br /> Capturing that single moment when they looked at each other it was magical; without saying nothing, their eyes connected so perfectly like they were talking to each other... saying everything without words... like two friends who trust and believe in the connection between them. An image that say more than a thousand words....
I remember the day of Baptist's shooting like if it was yesterday. I came from a bad week, those bad weeks you have once in a while... But when I got to Baptist's home, everything changed. The good family vibes and the calm mood made everything perfect from the beginning.<br /> It was a grey day outside with heavy rains, but it was inside that I met a little ray of light who lit all around. He was a little disturbed about the noise outside, and I had to find the way to make my thing, but making him felt good too. And like I heard somebody sad once: "baby wrapped and warm, is a quiet baby", and that was my photo result.<br /> The colors where chosen to represent calm, and to have inside a blue sky for us, to make complete the scene inside: the sun and the sky together.
Vicente is the main protagonist of a story full of wishes and so much love... A very special baby who gave to his mother the most important gift: the gift of feeling magical sensations impossible to forget... the gift of enjoying her beautiful present time with all the senses. When she thought she could never have a treasure like him in her life, the destiny transformed her in a mother. The miracle was done. For me, as a photographer, it was a wonderful experience. A photo shooting full of love and emotion which left a mark on me.
This beautiful little girl, Manuela, let me to keep telling her story. I met her when she was just 11 days old, when we experienced a beautiful photoshooting session; and now, after 9 month, I have the pleasure to meet her again to capture with my camera her movements again. For me, to have the privilege of watching her to grows and being part of her story is one of the biggest satisfactions for me and my profession.<br /><br /> A new session, with a bigger girl but with the same sweetness of her first days…
It was a sunny day when we first met Maria.<br /> During the photoshoot, she gave us the most beautiful poses. We loved the angry faces she had secretly prepared for us, and which gave the session a funny and unique touch.<br /> In her world, she did not imagine the special moment that we were living... A session full of tenderness, magic and joy, ideal ingredients for the most beautiful result.

These twins made us dreaming in a session in which everything was perfect. Quiet and beautiful, this little boys made ​​us enjoy every single moment.<br /> They also enjoyed the photoshooting, I know it, I could see it in their faces ... <br /> It was easy to see that special and unique bond between them; that such an immense force that grows with every day they share... <br /> Accomplices, brothers ... Each one is for the other the reflection of his own soul. <br /> It was certainly a super special newborn session, where the connection between them was felt in the air; a beautiful connection that exists from the very first time between them.

The sweet baby Sofia was 7 days old and she was lovely during the session. In attendance were the young mother and father as well as both grandmothers. The joy and excitement from all were priceless! This photo utilized an assistant to produce a composite, because as always, Baby Safety First!
This beautiful baby is Lorenzo, who, by being premature, arrived at my Studio over 30 days old. Although older than my normal newborns he was super quiet and captured me with all his sweetness. What completed this image was his grandmothers’ request to take a photo of Lorenzo with his aunt. I said sure! She sent someone to pick her up and when I saw this beautiful girl and took the picture of them I fell in love.
This image of Snow White was made at the request of baby Sofia's mother. With the help of my friend Sandra Cascais, we added elements to resemble the character without losing the main focus of the adorable baby and was able to capture this lovely image.
This special image of baby Guilherme was made at the request of the Mother and Grandmother. Although just a puppy Belinha is already acting as the guardian of this beautiful and beloved baby.

This photo of Andrew was taken to honor his father, a retired United States Marine who has returned safely after a couple of tours of duty. When his mother and I were planning Andrew's session, I had a special US Marine inspired diaper cover made while his mom gathered her husband's uniform and accessories. It was truly a humbling and emotional session on a very hot summer day in my studio.
This is Logan and this photo is one of many from his first birthday cake smash session. We love to pair a bubble bath photo session following a cake smash photo session because, not only do we get adorable photos, we also get the child all cleaned up. <br /> <br /> Logan here has discovered that cake and bubble baths can be done in his own backyard. Most of our photography sessions take place in our clients' home to add sentiment and comfort.
Baby Hana and older canine brother, Buddy, have a unique relationship. Buddy lights up Hana and Hana keeps it interesting for Buddy. Just look at her cute facetious little smile! It was such a joy to work with these two adorable kids!
Baby Brandon's parents expressed to us how much this book meant to them when they first booked their maternity session. So it was only fitting to ensure that we got at least one photo with this book.
One of the greatest assets of living in Southern California, USA, is having great beach photography opportunities all throughout the day and during every season. This photo of Emily was part of her family's holiday photo session at the beach!!!! It was wonderful to capture such a magical moment!
When these two cuties' mommy, come to us with the goal of capturing her two sons' personalities for their family holiday cards; we suggested to just let them roll on the grass of a local park while we snapped away with our camera. Everyone was happy with the results of the photo session and the boys were especially pleased to have gotten a free day at the park!

I love making my clients happy! Mom wanted something different and loved purple. This wreath was perfect and probably my first baby of the year that slept through the entire session without a break! She was a dream.
This family was a long time client. This little boy was a tough guy, and you'd never know from this pose. What I love about this photo the most is the look of peace on the little guy's face. You'd never know he didn't want anything to do with me!
Baby was probably the smiliest baby I have ever had in my entire career! Wouldn't stop smiling for every single position I put her in! This one was my favorite.

This family was suggested to my studio by another client as they had just moved into the area. I was so thrilled to work with them. They were so energetic, especially their oldest son. He loved taking photos with his little brother. Landry was one of the most calm and happy babies I've been able to photograph. This set up came as a last minute idea that I had in my head and he was settled and happy and I'm beyond thrilled with the outcome. It's by far one of my favorite military themed photos I've taken.
Living in a military town, there are so many Sailors and Marines with new babies. This little girl had so much love surrounding her, they even named her Valentina! This sweet girl was so happy to be in her Father's arms and fell asleep perfectly and settled right into him. I truly love this photo as it represents all the protection and love that not only a Father has for their new child but the Military does in protecting our great Country.
I truly love being a Mom and a Photographer so when I get to combine my two loves, it just makes my heart feel full. This is my beautiful son; Michael. He wasn't having the greatest day but seemed to really enjoy running around a sunflower field as tall as he was. This is my absolute favorite photo I've ever taken of him. I'm so pleased I was able to capture his curiosity and love of Nature in one image.
This little one's mama messaged me in a panic because her daughter was already two weeks old and she was afraid that she couldn't get the beautiful shots she was hoping for. She came to her session full of ideas and I'm so happy I was able to capture this particular one for her. Her little Princess was an adorable addition to the babies I've been blessed to work with over the years.

The smirking photo was one of those once in a lifetime, split second, oh my gosh hurry up and get her in focus shots! I was so excited when I opened it to edit and it was actually in focus.
On this photo, mom informed me of her name and that she wanted to include as much purple as possible. I bought the flowers the morning of and had a vision in my mind the minute I got into my studio. Violet brought it to like with her sweet little face!

This is a magical place, i love photographing there & that is Jonathan :) The original intention of this photo shoot was a cake smash for Jonathan's little brother and sister (twins) - we even had the perfect owl cake which we carried walking in the river! But though the idea was beautiful, in real it went all wrong... The twins didn't want to get anywhere near the cake nor the river so Jonathan, who just came along as the 'big brother' ended up enjoying both :)<br />
I love using special accessories for new born sessions . Creating photos & capturing moments is creating memories for a family. I think using accessories that have special meaning for the family grant the photo that extra meaning. So the moment i walked into this baby girl's house & saw the amazing Matryeshka dolls collecton of her mama, i just knew i had to use it!
Nature & Babies, what a perfect combination 3> Baby Naomi was just a few days new... I love about this photo that it was taken outside, the garden is a favorite place for her mama - gladly for me :) especially since not many moms agree to take their newborns outside... Another thing i love about this photo that it's all natural, almost no photoshop or anything, just a bit of vibrance maybe, thats all...
Baby Samir was the sweetest! :) 16 days new at his photoshoot :)<br /> I love it when parents bring a personal item, i think it makes the photo even more special :)<br /> So when mommy told me that Samir's Aunty knitted the hat especialy for him i thought it was a very nice gesture and we happily used it in this photo 3>

Noortje, who's got the most amazing blue eyes, loves her dog and it shows. <br /> The two of them make a handsome pair.<br /> I love the unique connection between children and their pets.
I was so much looking forward to meeting these precious little girls.<br /> Flo & Nel arrived 8 weeks too early and they have come a long way since then.<br /> It was a great pleasure capturing these pictures that will last a lifetime.<br />
Loïs was one of the many baby girls I met in 2016 and she behaved like a perfect little princess.<br /> I love the simplicity and pureness of this picture<br />
