Welcome Hey there, thanks for stopping by! Welcome to my little corner of the internet, my place to share my voice and photography. In case you don't know me, I am Sara (that's me to the left, the one without a big white furry coat). I am a photographer based in the San Francisco Bay area, California. I LOVE my work, and you will see a bit of that sneaking in here. I also use this as a place to share other parts of my life. You will find adventures, food and little tidbits about my life with my darling husband and our two fat cats.  Please feel free to have a look around and even leave me a note. I would love to hear from you!

Several months ago I received an email from an organization called the Littlest Heros Project. Littlest Heros is an organization that provides photo sessions (via volunteer photographers) for families with children who have or have had a serious illness. This is a great opportunity to provide a family with some beautiful images that may have otherwise missed. My family has a munchkin with trisomy 21. I had waited so long to meet them, when the day finally arrived I could hardly stand it.

This is Malea. She is a cute little bundle. She is two years old and walking walking walking! We decided to head to the beach for the first half of our session. You can see Malea's reaction here as we made our way to the waves.

The relationship between Malea and her parents is full of love. They are an amazing family.

Malea is so full of smiles, it is contagious.

After playing at the beach we decided to head over to Dennis the Menace Park. Malea L.O.V.E.S the swings. She had so much fun with mom and dad pushing her.

Thank you to the Smith Family for a wonderful day in Monterey! Malea, you are a joy and a treasure. You can read more about the Smith Family journey at their blog, One More, More Than One.
