I am a wife and mother of 5 sweet boys. They are my fulltime commitment. My passion for photography compels me to spend a little time away from home capturing the beauty and love I see in other families. I have pursued photography since I got my first camera at eight years old. I feel so blessed to have opportunities to share my love of photography with others. My desire is to provide everday people with extraordinary portraits at a very reasonable price. Why shouldn't normal families be able to afford great photographs! davencathi@sbcglobal.net or 916.276.5156.

Note: As of January 2010 my prices will change. I will be offering different session/portrait packages for different needs. I will be publishing my price list on my website before the end of 2009. If you have already booked your sitting you will get my current pricing. Please call or email me to schedule your family or individual session.

My Best of 2008- Babies

I only did two infant/baby shoots this year and one of them was MY new baby Baron. I LOVE shooting babies, especially my own! :) Obviously, I'm a bit biased but you have to admit he's cute.
I have always done a shoot with my newborns when they are two weeks old. I have always dressed them in a simple white Onesie and set them on a blanket. Pretty simple. I'm not into the Anne Geddes stuff like dressing them up like bumble bees or putting them in flower pots or giving them wings. That's cute, but I want to remember them for how they really looked. I probably took 100 shots of Baron in this session but this was my favorite, he looks so peaceful and sweet. I love the close up.

Baby Baron
I was able to shoot baby Madelyn when she was a few months old. It was great fun because she was already smiling and had her eyes open the whole time. She looked like such a little princess in her dress and bow. She even had a little bracelet on. She spent a lot of time with her fists in her mouth, which I thought was so darling. That was part of the reason I loved this picture so much.
