Krysta + James

Posted in Portraits

After a tasty cuppa joe waiting for the rain to let up, we braved the chilly May day to grab some publicity head shots for James’ new business (more on that later). I couldn’t resist some couple shots afterwards with his lovely wife Krysta in her stylin’ new coat. Thanks for a fun time, you two!

One of my photos is being featured today on a fine art website! Go to wozofoto to take a look and purchase a print of your own.

I took this while I was in Miami last summer. We were hanging on by the waterfront when this sweet thundercloud started rolling in. It was quite a sight to behold!

Harry + Stefanie | Seattle Portraits

Posted in Portraits

Harry and Stefanie are a Swiss couple I met through a mutual friend last fall and I’m so glad I did! Stefanie and I have been able to meet regularly for coffee and help get each other through Seattle winter as well as ringing in the New Year together.

In Europe, it’s standard for resumes to include a head shot, and they asked me to help them get some creative shots to help them stand out and get new jobs once they go back to Switzerland. It just so happened to be their second wedding anniversary that day, and we couldn’t resist these fun shots as well! Oh, Stefanie makes super cute kids clothing- check out Stefanie’s website here.

35 Years After the War | Hà Nội, Việt Nam

If I mention I went to Vietnam last month then, at least in this country, I’ll get quite the quizzical look from most people. Words like “Hanoi” and “Saigon” cause people conjure up images of war and soldiers dying. In contrast, it now boasts a thriving tourist industry, giving foreigners a chance to see a very different Vietnam compared to 35 years ago.

Very exotic, and always an adventure, Vietnam is a place that will challenge and inspire. I must say, not too many Americans take them up on the offer, but the Vietnamese harbor no hard feelings, and you’ll bump elbows with many a French, German, Aussie, or Kiwi soul, plus get the chance to get your very own “Asian tatoo” from the hot muffler of a motorbike taxi (think blister, not ink)! Hint: a cold can of Coca Cola will do the trick as ice is hard to come by. Thank goodness I learned my lesson the first time I was there, but I did manage to drink loads of the sugar-not-corn-syrup version of “Coca,” as they say. Yum.
