For many years I photographed friends and their children as a hobby. I always enjoyed watching parents' faces light up when they saw a photo I had taken of their child. Then I became a mother myself. Now I truly understand how wonderful it feels to see a great photograph of the love of your life - one that captures his silly face or her look of deep concentration. And the ones that let you feel that hug all over again.

I have managed to preserve these memories of my daughter through the art of photography. And I want to do the same for you.

Along with motherhood for me came the opportunity of a lifetime. My husband's new job led us from Los Angeles to Manhattan, and I traded my career as a Deputy District Attorney for studies at New York's International Center of Photography.

Now I am able to turn my passion for photography and my love of preserving childhood memories into this amazing job.

My goal is to capture the personality of the child you see and love every day. No posing. And definitely no saying "cheese." Simply beautiful, natural photographs of your child that your family will cherish for generations.
