So, this has been SUCH a busy few weeks for me. Fantastic, but busy!!!!!! Tonight, I slowly cleaned the house up, prepped for tomorrow, played with the kids (sort of), got them tucked into their respective dreamworlds, and FINALLY sat down to watch last night’s episode of Parenthood. Do you think I could find the […]

Last week I flew down to Cali to attend Jasmine Star’s workshop (insert image of me freaking out here). I am still searching for the words to describe my experience (as there are so many). But I will say this….Jasmine and JD (her husband, second shooter, partner in crime, nicest guy ever) are two of […]

A post-spooky hello to you all! I hope you are enjoying this dreary, cold, post sugar high Thursday with some quiet (thank goodness for the bus this morning) and a cup of warm tea!  I’m about to settle into some work, but felt the need to do a quick write up of our Halloween festivities.  […]

What a totally crazy, wacky weather weekend around here. Sunny, clear…then black-cloud takeover in 5 minutes, torrential downpours, hail, 30 minutes later…the sun’s back out. Welcome to October. This shoot was awesome. They called and are leaving Seattle….. I’m leaving my house. The skies are clear their way, I’m driving through town seeing these ominous, […]

My dear friend, Jami, has become such a fabulous source of support and camaraderie in the photography world. She’s absolutely amazing in her art (check out her website here), and I have just completely enjoyed getting to know her this past year! SO, when she asked if I’d take her family pictures I was so flattered! […]

So this is by far my most favorite time of the year. I adore fall with all my heart! This past weekend, we scooted out of town to our favorite hideaway! This is where I un-plug….we all do, really! Family time, games, cozy fires, homemade bread, baking, cuddling on the couch and watching movies, crafting….the […]

Ok. So where do I start with this gorgeous, loving, fun, silly, hilarious family?! It was nearly 20 years ago that I met this mom and dad. Thank you WWU! They are just as in love now as they were then. Well, and they’ve added a few kids to the mix!!! She is that friend […]

Oh this family – super sweet and fun and so special to us! This past weekend, we let the sun go down a bit and hit the local beach and had some great fun! There were so many I loved I had a hard time narrowing down images for this post !! Laynya – I hope […]

So this adorable 8 year old has found something she LOVES!!!! Something that she does twice a week and literally smiles the whole way through! Who knew a few years back that the little girl who HATED getting her face wet would be crawl stroking, backstroking, breaststroking and diving like its nobody’s business. She has […]

Well, this referral starts with my sister – so big thanks to Christina for sharing my photos of your family all over your Facebook! Karen, the completely beautiful mom in these pictures to follow, used to work with Christina! Such fun connections. This fall, gorgeous, Washington weather sure makes for some fabulous picture taking! We […]
