Capturing Craft: A Sonder Portrait with Zeli

I photographed the incredibly talented Zeli, a boutique nail artist with a gift for detail and color, for a recent environmental portrait session. 🌿💅


We shot in her creative space, surrounded by the tools of her craft. We also used the backyard with some lovely flowers.

At the end of the session, she told me, “You made me feel so relaxed and comfortable”. That’s exactly what I want every client to say and that’s what the Sonder Portrait Experience is all about; stepping into your world, learning what lights you up, and capturing it with care.


If you’re a small business owner or creative who wants portraits that feel like you in your element, doing what you love, I’d love to connect and help you build your brand.


Announcing New Services

The last couple of years have been difficult worldwide. I often think of what everyone is experiencing and the loss they may have had to endure. I am sorry we are all going through this. All throughout 2020 I had a lot of time to reflect on what’s important, what’s not, and how to deal with changes in life.

I’ve decided step away from photographing homes and go back to focusing on portraits for women and surrounding myself with beauty.

There are new portrait session options posted on the site under “Services”. I can’t wait to get started and meet some new people.

I will also be adding 35mm film photography options in the future

Afro Project

I had a great time photographing singer Dan'Nelle for my afro project. This is an ongoing portrait series because I love afros, natural hair is beautiful and I want to highlight folks who are not afraid to rock it. It's important to just be who your authentic self is and sometimes it's difficult, but that's what makes us unique.
We headed out to San Francisco and photographed in the Mission. They have some lovely murals in that area.


Model: Dan'Nelle
