MEET IRIS

East Bay Maternity, Newborn & Family Photographer

If someone asked me what I love most I would answer 'Looking at People!'. I love observing people. When I enter people's home, the first thing that draws me in is their family portraits on their walls. To me, this is the first thing that will create the homey feeling. I can spend hours looking at people's albums, even if I just met them. I will be this person who speaks to someone they just met in the park and asks them if they have pictures of their loved ones.

 

MY STORY

I was born in Israel, in a suburb outside of Tel-Aviv. I was the third child and therefore my parents were not running after me with a camera to capture every smile or a silly moment. They already did it with my two older sisters. Growing up, it did bother me. I really wanted to know who the two year old me looked like. When teachers in elementary school asked the class to bring baby/toddler pictures, I was always embarrassed to admit I had a hard time finding any.

Family is precious. I love being there with my camera to make sure that you can print that great shot and put it at your home to look back at it whenever you wish.

I love living in the Bay Area. When I am not photographing, I am hiking with my dog, Sunny, as I love the outdoors, especially the mountains. My favorite cuisine is Asian, my favorite cocktail? Sangria!

"I’ve had two sessions with Iris, and I’m always impressed with her work! She’s very professional, talented, and passionate about what she does! It’s always a fun experience during her photo sessions! It’s always difficult to choose which photos I want edited because the photos turn out beautiful! I’d highly recommend her to friends and family!"
