Meet the Photographer
Hello I'm Cherie
Im thrilled to have you here. As a wife and mother of two wonderful girls, family means the world to me.
📷 Based in beautiful California, specifically the Sacramento area, I have a passion for photography that began with a DIY spirit and a desire to make family portraits more affordable. After countless attempts to take our own family photos with just my camera and a tripod, I realized how challenging—and stressful—it can be to capture those perfect moments while running back and forth for the right angle.
Let me take the stress out of your photography experience! And capture your families, true love and laughter from behind the lens.


What inspired me to start Love and Laughter Lens? What is my why?
My mom, our “walking circus,” filled our lives with endless energy, love, and whimsical playtime with my children. We unexpectedly lost her, and the thought of my kids growing up without her is heartbreaking. I wish I had captured more moments with her, and it’s made me even more passionate about helping families preserve their precious memories through photography.

How do I ensure each client's unique story is captured?
At Love and Laughter Lens, I capture real, joyful moments that tell your family’s story. Before your session, I send a quick survey to learn your kids’ likes and your family’s style, so we can create photos that truly feel like you.
