I had an interaction yesterday at my job at the frame shop with a gallery in San Francisco. They represent photographers - some fabulous current artists and a whole slew of others as the gallery has been open since the 70s. It got me thinking as many of the artists had catalogues of their work … Continue reading TOO MANY IDEAS!

Good golly, it’s April?
Why do my blog posts always seem to happen with shock that it's been ages since I last wrote? Time flies when you're having fun? Or time flies when there's a million and one things to do at all times and you can't ever seem to catch a break? Anyway, spring photography is off and … Continue reading Good golly, it’s April?
A tiny pivot
As I've been contemplating things and how I want this business to progress, I think I want to do less events* and more portraits. Like family portraits, but also just portrait portraits. Seniors, kids, headshots, theatrical headshots...Also? I want to focus more on families and clients who aren't "normal." Which means the people that are … Continue reading A tiny pivot
Many New Adventures Afoot…
You guys, I've applied for a muggle job. It's CRAZY. Kind of landed in my lap and started a whole soul searching and job searching push to see if this is really something I can do.

It's a new year! Lots to juggle in the every evolving life of a work at home small business owner and parent.
A few thoughts…
I haven't really cared too much about my web search presence - I prefer to pick up my clients by word of mouth but holy crap, my google analytics POPPED in September! A whole 52 new searches ended up at my site! I got a handful of folks to fill out my interest form which … Continue reading A few thoughts…
Wrapping up 2021
Phew! 2021 was the most busy I think I've ever been and that's even with a pandemic and delayed scheduling of some big events and such. I'll have the numbers soon as I'm finishing up the books but for now, I'm at over 50 family shoots, a couple of graduates, a b'mitzvah, an elopement, some … Continue reading Wrapping up 2021
Perfectionists Unite!
In setting up this website I’ve had to go through THOUSANDS of images from all the years I’ve been shooting professionally. And by professionally I mean when kind friends agreed to pay me $50 back in 2009 to let me take their family pics to help “build my portfolio.” Bless them, I look back now and … Continue reading Perfectionists Unite!
