Dabny Art Photography: Seattle Children & Family Photographer

these are my friend elizabeth’s adorable kids.  they have squishy cheeks, and if i’m lucky i get to nibble on them.

i love sun setting light!  that’s why i schedule most of my sessions in the evening – especially in the summer.  we were so lucky to get the most gorgeous light for this session on what was most likely the last hot day of the summer.  i am so sad to see the summer come to an end!  i will soon be posting my CHRISTMAS session dates if you can believe it, so watch out for those!

sam is such a little charmer.  right when i met him he gave me the biggest smiles and didn’t stop looking at me.  he was so animated the whole first half of the session, and by the time we got outside he was so exhausted that he fell right to sleep in his mom’s arms.  he is such a sweetheart and has sweet parents who adore him like crazy.

usually i pass on wedding requests to my husband (who specializes in wedding photography!), but i grew up with chris and couldn’t pass up the opportunity to shoot his and laurin’s wedding.. plus i took josh along for back up.   chris and laurin are perfect for each other and it was so fun to photograph their wedding day.  it was a hot day.  like 95 degrees!  the reception was outdoors and started out in full sun, but once the sun went down it was absolutely perfect and made for a gorgeous sunset.  we stole the couple away for a few minutes and got some pictures of them right as the sun was setting.  there also happened to be a putting green right by us and the golfers let us borrow their clubs for minute.  it was very fitting since both chris and laurin love golf and chris actually proposed to laurin on a golf course.   

senior boys aren’t as difficult to photograph as i thought they would be, especially when they are as adorable as cody!

dallin graduated from kindergarten!!  now he spends his days building legos and riding his bike.  it’s a rough life!

saskia was such an alert one week old.  she fought sleep like crazy and had the cutest sneezes, hiccups, smiles and coos.  once she was asleep, she cuddled right into the blankie and continued smiling in her sleep!
