Seattle & Portland Children and Family Photographer
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.
i just got back from a week and a half trip to oregon. my family had a reunion as we welcomed my baby brother home from a two year mission. we also celebrated olive’s first birthday, went hiking to some beautiful waterfalls, went to the beach on a sunny day, plus i got to take pictures of this fun family!! if you follow me on facebook you know that i did a giveaway once i reached 100 fans. betsy won that giveaway and this is a sneak peek of her FREE session!
after a long winter, doesn’t 70 degrees feels hot?! this afternoon my kids put on their swimsuits and filled up their little pool. for hours they splashed around and played with water balloons, and they never got cold. it made me so excited for summer! we have had the best weather for sessions lately including the day i photographed this beautiful family. we did their session at luther burbank park on mercer island, and had a lot of fun walking along the water and finding great spots for pictures.
happy mother’s day!
violet was so fun. she is at that perfect stage (for a photographer) where she can sit up but can’t quite crawl yet. plus she was up for anything. sit on a hard rock? no problem! sit in wet sand? sure! sit in weeds? ok! do all that and still be happy? gladly! she was awesome.
i LOVED this session. the location was beautiful, the lighting was perfect, and the family was adorable.
this little girl was an absolute doll.
at the end of the session, she plopped down in the sand and play with it for a good 15 minutes. we took advantage of it and got some shots of mom and dad!
these kids have changed so much since i photographed them last. just take a look! they are just as cute and fun as ever, and even have a baby brother now!
we had OUR family pictures taken recently. you know what that means? we are going to have pictures with mom AND dad in them. i am so excited! i wanted an urban feel to our pictures, so i scoped out some new locations and found some great spots. i tried out some of the spots on this cute family. little rylee was a riot. she quickly got attached to me and i was THIS close to sticking her in my car and bringing her home. she is so much fun! (and so are her parents i might add!)
i LOVE this family. not only are they beautiful and fun to photograph, but they are the best neighbors ever. they let us borrow their van, gave us pumpkin bread, babysat our child, and brought us soup for dinner. and that was just today! i am so blessed.
