Lifestyle Newborn Photos in Chico California - Baby Kaizen
Meet baby Kaizen! He’s the sweetest, most beautiful baby boy. Marsil and his wife Kinana are a part of our Rainmakers Academy and the email they sent my way inquiring about newborn photography brought me to tears.
Marsil explained that Rainmakers has been such an incredible opportunity for his family. He was so inspired by our story and what we believe in at Rainmakers that they named their son after our own Kaizen. I was completely speechless and so honored!
Best Mother's Day Gift Idea - Chico Family Photographer
I totally get it mamma, we seem to always be the ones behind the camera, capturing our little ones as they are always growing.
We often forget to get in front of the camera, get pretty, celebrate motherhood and how powerful we are.
I wanted to create an experience that was different, I want you to not only have an experience with you and your littles but I wanted to take it a step further. I want you to have tangible images.
Northern California Winter Outdoor Maternity Session - Comer Family
It is always such a pleasure meeting people for a maternity session and then months or weeks later seeing them with a beautiful baby in their arms. We hiked all throughout Bidwell Park and had the most amazing sunny weather for their session.
Ranch Family Newborn Lifestyle Session in Northern California - Andreini Family
I love this family so much. They are near and dear to our hearts for so many reasons. Nicole and Adam were one of our TréCreative wedding couples. They had a beautiful wedding in the Spring out at Nicole’s family cattle ranch several years ago. Since then, I have had the privilege of photographing them over the years as their family has grown. In between their three babies, we’ve seen them go through career transitions and blossom together as a family.
Pacifica California Overcast Beach Motherhood Film Session - Brooks Family
Since having my son Kaizen, I have fallen in love with motherhood sessions. Don’t get me wrong, family lifestyle sessions are such a joy too but I specially love capturing the connection between a momma and her kiddos. I believe us mommas are warriors and the beauty each of us have inside and outside is so worth celebrating. We can all learn from each others strengths and champion each other even if we choose to parent our kids differently.
Chico Lifestyle Farmhouse Family Photo Session
My approach to photography is to always make my families feel comfortable and at ease. I want to capture the raw and tender moments a family has for one another. This might look like a cuddle on the couch together or silly faces between a baby and their parents. Whatever that is, I want my images to bring my families back to those precious moments to the feelings in the photo.
Baby Boy Newborn Photos Chico - Rauch Family
Those first few weeks of the newborn stage can feel like forever while going by so fast. Between the late night feeds, schedule changes and adjusting to getting to know your baby outside the womb, there is beauty to be seen everywhere if you’re looking for it. My heart in these lifestyle newborn sessions is to capture those sweet moments that parents experience with their brand new baby. I love that images can evoke emotions of love and connection. And that when the baby is older, they’ll see these images as a family heirloom their parents invested in.
Motherhood Neutral Farmhouse Photography Session Chico
I wanted to capture a motherhood session and so my beautiful friend Mayela and her sweet baby boy agreed to be in front of my camera. As momma’s were often the ones behind the camera creating the moments on camera. I wanted to capture the connection and deep love us moms have for our babies.
