greetings from sunny (and foggy) los angeles, ca


Hi, I'm heather. I like taking pictures. I take a lot of them. I stay up way too late. I wake up with my kids way too early (for me). Though slowly I'm learning that sleep is good.

I love photographing newborns, toddlers, kids (I've got two of my own), families, pets...you name it! Large groups and weddings make me way too nervous, but I'd be happy to refer you to other photographers in the area.

I love to hear your comments, so feel free to add to my blog by posting. Having a hard time remembering "umami?" Well, I wanted a name that would be easy to remember, spell and find, but apparently I did none of that, so if you'd like to get emails when I post, just add your email to the "subscribe here" box... you'll be the first to find out when I'll be offering mini sessions and other specials!

have a happy day... heather

a is for ava

I met up with another one of my "online friends" today. I can't even remember how I first met Adrena, but right away I was inspired by the amazingly creative and beautiful pictures she took of her daughter Ava. Besides being a mom and having a paid job, she's also recently begun to photograph lucky families (like us). Woohoo! Check out her site: http://www.adrenaatkins.com/.

So today we did a little photo swap... the goal was to get a family photo for each of our families... and she wanted hers on the ferris wheel! Did I forget to mention that carnival rides totally freak me out?! So I took Jack on the ride with me for moral support (and so I didn't like like a loser all by myself in the bucket thing). Turns out I spent all my time trying to get my camera settings right that I didn't even have time to think about earthquakes and what not.

Thanks again for the super fun meetup Adrena (and for the ride on the ferris wheel). It was great meeting Paul and Ava finally too!
