When Meetu asked me if I’d be interested in a shoot with a few designer pieces, of course I said yes. Meenu is a model, dancer, actress, and corporate employee! She absolutely killed it during this session. I had the best time working with all of these wonderful vendors! We shot the first set at […]

I get to work with seriously awesome ladies out there, and Hana is no exception! As an Emmy-nominated producer and director, she was looking for less-than-corporate headshots. We spent the afternoon hanging out around downtown Palo Alto, one of the most versatile places to shoot in Silicon Valley. We had fun, laughed a lot, and […]

“Invented at Stanford. Made in Italy.” Another #BossLady brand that I’ve had the joy of working with – Reclaim. Comfortable, professional, and versatile – literally everything I’ve ever wanted in workwear! I have a pair of the Perfect Pants myself, and I am not ashamed to admit that I’ve worn them the past 3 days […]

Ashley’s graduation session at Stanford was such a dream! She brought her parents, boyfriend, and best friend, and we had an absolute blast. We went to all of her favorite spots – the Oval, quad, one of the fountains, and the top of one of the student center buildings. My favorite part of her session? […]

Alana is a returning client, and I love working with her every time! She’s booked a portrait session (to get headshots for an award she won!), a gender reveal session, she attended my Boss Lady studio shoot, and now I’ve done a couple of content creation shoots for her company, Filmkik! The WeWork space in […]

If you’ve been following the blog for a while, you’ll know that I love working with small business owners and learning about what they do. Jocelyn is starting her own skincare line and needed photos for her social media and website! We decided to shoot in downtown Mountain View (one of my favorite places to […]

What a (trick or) TREAT it was to meet and work with these ladies! They recently hosted a fall gifting. When Sonia asked me if I’d be down to shoot at a pumpkin 🎃 patch, I couldn’t say no! We seriously had the best time running around the pumpkin patch (which was basically a fall […]

You’ve probably noticed that images with yourself in them perform better than images that you’re not in. People love to see what you’re doing and connect with YOU – your audience wants to get to know the person behind it all! That’s why I was so excited when Tenley reached out about a brand session. […]

Amidst all of her responsibilities and tasks as a solopreneur, Lara needed updated headshots for her rebrand of Pericus Ventures! Lara was looking for lifestyle branding headshots instead of your traditional, sitting in front of a gray backdrop headshots. I was so excited during her strategy call when she mentioned that her company has a […]

Fall graduation is coming up soon, so I thought I’d throw it back to Britainy’s grad session last spring! I got to know Stanford’s campus pretty well last season. The biggest takeaway? If you’re a Stanford grad, schedule your session for the morning! You know how badly it gets packed with tourists in the afternoon. […]
