Watching our kids growing up in this virtual world of tech and sophisticated communication I am reminded of a simpler time; a time when schedules ended with the school bell at 2:30, music was played on records and telephones only existed in a house.  The simplicity of times past has become a great inspiration to my portrait photography and from this inspiration I’ve created my American Vintage portrait series. I’ve had the recent privilege of photographing Bella and Maverick- – whose parents are the amazing owners/designers at Plumbed Elegance in Santa Cruz. Maverick’s got his dog and his hat and Bella has her chic, complete with a pink cast to heal a broken arm. Enjoy our portrait moments. We will have this American Vintage set available for the month of September. Contact me and we can collaborate on clothing, styling and a beautiful American Vintage portrait—perfect for a holiday gift!
