Photography – Sacramento

I am a self taught, nature loving Portrait Photographer who loves candid shots. I grew up on the East Coast, moved to sunny California in 1989, and went to San Jose State University to study art. After graduating, I moved to the Sacramento are with my husband. Two kids and 2 dogs later, we now live in Rancho Cordova. A social introvert, I do my best work when I am invisible - that is, I prefer it if people forget that I am around. I capture a lot of \"true moments\" that way. I am a good listener (at least that\'s what people tell me) and I find that this skill helps me in my profession. I started out as a nature photographer because the beauty near my home was something that I could not ignore. The photos you will find here are some that my muse inspired me to capture. When I am not out shooting photos, I am volunteering at my children\'s school, going on adventures with my family, or goofing off with my friends.
