As a Q***r wedding photographer I notice subtle hints of homophobia everywhere in the wedding industry. This past week, I have seen two not-so-subtle cases to the flavor of “We don’t work with LGBTQ couples because of our religion” gained a lot of attention. Both posts that have been widely sh...

Do you know Betty Reid Soskin, the nation’s oldest active park ranger working for the National Park Service? She’s a true inspiration who shares a constant example of grit, determination, and social justice. (She was also a Woman of the Year in 2018!!)

Hoping to see this dynamic 98-year-old role model at the Rosie the Riveter Historic Park very soon. 💗
(Sometimes I get to photograph very, very cool things at my day job. This portrait is one of my very favorites.)

Big, colorful, joyful love!
After a sweet intimate ceremony at this 2019 wedding, we set off to take romantic couple photos. It was incredibly hot (pretty rare at NorCal beaches TBH), so of course it seemed like EVERYONE was out.

I thought about making a pretty flat lay, but I like seeing other people’s lives since I can’t see them face to face. So this is every morning: dashing to my desk with super milky tea, some sort of breakfast (lucked out on PopTarts during my last grocery shop), grabbing headphones and a pen for the next Zoom call. Show me yours? ☕️ 🥯 🌸

This little corner and I are getting really cozy these days. Can you spot: lip balm, face spray, and the Animaniacs pencil holder I bought in middle school? 😂
