Ashley and Kyle have been in front of my camera many times. It all started with their wedding, and then evolved to maternity pics, baby pics, family pics, more maternity, more baby…. and now we have a new set of family photos. We took advantage of a blustery but dry weekend this fall to head…
Have you ever seen that meme that shows a picture of a lake with orange and yellow trees reflecting in the somewhat still surface, and it says “My favorite color is fall”? Well, my favorite color happens to be rainbow (or glitter, though my kid insists that glitter isn’t a color)…. but my favorite season…
We’ve known Mary and Josh for a few years now. We photographed their wedding a couple years ago out at Dairyland, and we’ve been in touch since. Last year, Mary brought a beautiful baby boy into the world, and asked me to do the honor of taking their family photos this fall. The plan was…
We met Erika and Jared at The 2016 Snohomish Wedding Tour. Erika was about ready to bring a beautiful little girl into the world, and they were somehow dealing with record-setting heat with smiles on their faces. We met again a few months later over dinner, and swapped stories of sleepless nights and other treats…
The Long Beach area of the Washington coast is my favorite. When I was younger, my family and I used to go there often. It was a 90 minute drive from our house, and the salty air called on a regular basis. It was so much a part of us, that my mom wanted to…
Anne and Jon got married a couple years ago at the Arboretum. When Anne found out she was expecting, we made a second trip out to take some maternity photos there as well. So it only seemed natural to visit again and get their first family photos done. Anne also brought along a family blanket…
Maggie and Jason aren’t the type to do a wedding the fussy way. They’re more the DIY Tie-Dyed flower girl dresses and groomsmen’s socks type. The ceremony in the round type. The taco truck type. And their wedding was awesome. The afternoon started out with some portrait fun, and then the entire crowd of guests…
Stephanie and Norman got married just as the summer was starting to turn into fall. The sun was out, but it wasn’t too hot. The leaves were starting to turn on a handful of trees, but hadn’t left anything bare. The sun set early enough to appreciate it, but not so early that the entire…
Jess and Sayer got married back in December, but they held a reception for their friends and family over the Labor Day weekend at a beautiful rental house on Lake Goodwin in Stanwood. They are both in the military, and Jess coordinated much of the event over emails and phone from Afganistan! I was so…
Kate and Garrett got married a couple weeks ago. The skies were smokey, and we were just coming down off the heat wave that swept the puget sound area. That didn’t put any dampers on their celebration, though. Their processional included a real ball and chain gag, the groom and groomsmen all wore crazy socks,…
