Local & Based Here
A portrait photographer who knows this area
I’m Veronica, an El Dorado Hills based photographer with more than ten years of experience. Portrait sessions are personal by nature, and I know the quiet corners of this area that make for a relaxed, uncrowded setting.

Maternity, Milestones & More
For the moments that call for one person in front of the camera
Portrait sessions cover a lot of ground — a maternity session before a baby arrives, a milestone worth marking, or simply an updated, current photo of yourself. Most portrait sessions come down to one person (or a parent and child) rather than a full group, which usually makes for a more relaxed, unhurried afternoon.
Maternity sessions are typically planned for the third trimester, when there’s a full silhouette to work with and just enough energy left for an hour outside.
Relaxed Direction
Natural posing, whatever the occasion
Portrait sessions still get the same approach as everything else I photograph — real direction when it helps, room to just be yourself when it doesn’t. Session planning and location guidance are part of every booking, so wardrobe and setting are worked out ahead of time instead of decided on the spot.
A typical portrait session runs about 45 minutes — enough time to settle in and cover a couple of different looks without turning into an all-afternoon production.
