I’ve been dying to blog this session for a few weeks now!!!  This young lady is amazingly talented and at fifteen years-old,  knows just what she wants.  Writing and performing her own music is her passion and she is a natural at both.  She reminds me of Taylor Swift or a young Mindy Gledhill.  She just finished recording her first song, Peter Pan,  and it debuts on itunes today!  It has been swimming around in my head ever since I heard it about a month ago.  We went out a few weeks ago to shoot some images for her album and had so much fun.  This girl was either smiling or busting out laughing the entire time despite the wind and chill.  She is so sweet and  I can’t wait to watch her succeed in music and in life.  Congratulations, Kira Stone!

Be sure to watch the slideshow at the end set to her very own song.

 

 

Peter Pan is available on itunes!

 

Last week I had the opportunity to take pictures during Danville Children’s Guild‘s Annual Fall Event at the beautiful Diablo Country Club.  The event benefited CASA of Contra Costa County.  I was impressed by the number of women from my community who came out to support the Guild as well as CASA.  With the crazy schedules we have, many of us moms of multiple kids, to spend an entire school day at an event supporting other local children, instead of doing our usual grocery shopping, laundry, errands, and random daily minutia, was wonderful.

I was thrilled to meet and photograph Kristi Yamaguchi who emceed the fashion show.  She was a fabulous addition to the day which also consisted of a silent auction, holiday bazaar and luncheon.  I enjoyed meeting and photographing old and new friends.

If you’re local and would like to volunteer with an amazing group of women in supporting local needs in our community, consider joining Danville Children’s Guild.
