Sunset Skate Session

We’re starting a new tradition..Family Friday Skate Night! Last Friday we took our longboard skateboards to “The Strand” (a stretch of boardwalk by the Oceanside Pier) and played while the sun set. Back in the day, B.K. (before Kiddos), I used to run here while Sam surfed on Saturday mornings. Now that our family is […]

Summer Styles + The Jumper You’ll Want To Live In

I never want to forget that Memorial Day is a day to celebrate those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country, but I also like to think it symbolizes the start of summer. Growing up my family would invite our whole church over for a swim party BBQ and I looked forward to it […]

Teaching our kids to Love the earth

It’s no secret that children are highly digitalized in our day and age. I’m not even going to say that that’s bad because there is no stopping technology and progression; it’s just part of our world now. By age 4 Waylon already knows how to use a laptop, iPad, and iPhone. Instead of feeling like a […]

Summer Mini Sessions + Other Bay Area Adventures

While on vacation in Santa Cruz I drove to Marin County with my mom, niece, and Zeke to shoot portraits at Neve and Hawk’s flagship store in San Anselmo, CA. This beautiful brand is family owned and operated and aligns so closely with the things that I love. Bob and Kris opened their doors about a month ago and […]

San Onofre Beach Photoshoot

Summer is in full swing! So much so that I actually have started to think about Fall and chunky sweaters and pumpkin lattes and…okay okay I’ll stop and enjoy the sun more. I can’t tell you how much I love photographing children. Children are easy to capture when you let them be themselves. I just […]

Malibu “Mini Market” Photoshoot

I am a lover of Nancy Meyers’ movies. Nancy Meyers has a way of making you want to live in her movies. I have nothing but love for her elegant yet whimsical aesthetic. I mention all this because the Malibu Zuma Barn home (which you can rent on Kid + Coe)…is very much Nancy Meyers and very much my dream […]

Spring Memories

The last 4 weeks have been a month of celebrations. I turned 33, My grandmother turned 90, Waylon turned 3, we celebrated Easter with family and friends, and we found out we’re having another boy!  We celebrated Waylon turning 3 years old by having a few friends and family members over. I have to be […]

Tink & Key

A morning with Waylon and Tink & Key… This “Train em Up” pullover is one of my favorites; every time I pull it over my son’s head and feed his arms through the proper holes it reminds me of the great task I have to teach him and guide him in the right way. Sometimes this […]
