Kara is a high school senior this year – Getchell High School Class of 2018. I was excited for her session because I’ve worked with her mom before, and I knew how much fun they were to be around. We decided to hit up the Everett Legion Park Arboretum, because it’s so pretty this time…
Smoke is an interesting thing. If you live in the general Puget Sound area, you know that for the last week and a half, we were socked in by the wildfire smoke coming down from Vancouver B.C. The air has finally cleared up for the most part, which is lovely. However, during the midst of…
Darla and I have been friends for over a decade now. I took photos at her bridal shower, and played the role of the dreaded Uncle Bob at her wedding (yes, I admit it). When she got pregnant with her first little girl, we did maternity photos and later family photos. Throughout her journey into…
Caroline and Walt got married in January on a cruise ship. The pair loves to travel, and it was a fitting location for them to share their special day together. However, they also wanted to celebrate with their family and friends. So, they planned a vow renewal and wine-soaked party to follow six months later.…
Maggie and Jason are getting married this summer out of Woodland Meadow Farms. When we met, I instantly knew that they were going to be a fun couple to work with, and turns out my gut was right! Maggie suggested we hit up the Bob Heirman Wildlife Preserve in Snohomish for their engagement session. With…
Taffy and Jim got hitched at Red Barn Farm in Redmond. They even had a hitching post made up just for the occasion. It was a super hot day, but that didn’t stop everyone from donning their boots and dancing after the ceremony. Taffy and Jim have been taking country dance lessons for a while…
I met Jenn and Chad back in 2015 as they were starting to plan their wedding. We had a totally fun engagement session on the campus of UW, and you could just see how much they were in love. To top it off, they wanted to use their engagement photos to make a special announcement…
Lindsey and Nathan met through a mutual friend at a party (who this weekend got to serve as maid of honor at their wedding). Despite living a few states apart, they knew that there was something there. They bounced back and forth between visits in Colorado and Washington before Nathan finally decided to move for…
My daughter’s name may be Aurora, but this last weekend she put on the shoes and dress of another beloved Disney princess for a fun shoot with her friend, Charlie. With a dress copying the look of the live-action movie, and a prince costume to match, we set out for the campus of UW for…
If there’s one thing I can unequivocally say makes every portrait better – it would be makeup. It brightens the eyes, softens the skin, evens tone and adds definition. It’s a miracle worker. It’s like Photoshop for the face – only better. That being said, I know that there are a lot of people in this…
