Stacy + Andrew Engaged! | Seattle Engagement Photography

Posted in Engagement, Portraits

We lucked out with this session landing on one of the first feels-like-summer days in Seattle this June.  It’s a good thing, too, since I was starting to think winter would melt right back into fall and we’d miss summer altogether!

Stacy and Andrew are a great couple and to top it off, she proposed to him!  How cool!  I just love her no-nonsense, down-to-earth approach to life that is balanced just-so with his I’ll-snuggle-with-you-in-public-no-matter-who’s-looking take on their relationship.  They have great senses of humor and I just can’t wait for their wedding in October.  It’s going to be a blast!

They brought along their very photogenic canine Vincent to add to the fun of their session.  Any dog who’s people love him so much that they treat him to doggie ice cream is a lucky dog indeed!  Now on to a sneak peek at their engagement session before I wear out the hyphen key on my keyboard.

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!

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.

Elena + Eric | Seattle Engagement Photography

Posted in Engagement, Portraits

The first of the buds are appearing on the trees here in Seattle and with a happy sun shining, it made for a perfect day for an engagement session with a couple sooo in love! I had a great time with Elena and Eric- they are totally into each other and have so much fun together. They’re one of the lucky few who can say they’ve known each other since way back in high school, and much to the chagrin of many a high school boy, I’m sure, the rest is history and they are tying the knot this summer. Congrats, you two!

Baby Jamieson | Seattle Newborn Photography

Posted in Bumps and Babies, Portraits

It wasn’t all that long ago that I was photographing little Jamieson while still a bump in his mommy’s belly. As cute as that belly was, I have to say I think Jamieson’s cuteness trumps all. Just nine days old, he was alert and taking in everything during part of the session and sleeping sound the rest. Between new mom and dad, and grandmother who flew in just in time for his birth, Jamieson is one loved lil guy!

Oscar, the “other baby” | Pet Portraits, Seattle WA

Posted in Portraits, Puppies

It’s no secret I love puppies. Ask my boyfriend Jake, and he’ll tell you that I exclaim, “I want a puppy!” no fewer than 10 times a week. By the way, I call ALL dogs puppies, even if they’re old enough to have gray fur on their snouts. Oscar the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, is a people-loving, squirming, licking-every-face-that’s-close-enough, growling-at-nothing-in-particular, with a face that’s impossible not to love, kind of dog that feels tortured when forced to be more than 10 feet away from his people. During the maternity session with Jackie and Justin, he whined and whimpered until we included him. Given that he’s so dang cute, who could deny him that?! Photographing puppies is just so fun!

Jackie + Justin’s Baby Bump | Maternity Portrait Shoot, Seattle WA

Posted in Bumps and Babies, Portraits

I think women with pregnant bellies are just the cutest ever. Even though they may feel as big as a whale, they have the most beautiful glow and the best curves holding the most precious of treasures. I’ve always thought so; when I was a little girl, I’d play pregnant by stuffing a pillow up my shirt and waddle around the house. Peculiar childhood games aside, it was my privilege to hang out with Jackie and Justin for an afternoon and capture their relationship and her super cute belly before she’s able to enjoy tying her own shoes again. Congrats you two!!

Zara + Caden | Seattle Portrait Shoot

Posted in Kids, Portraits

With the unusual abundance of that bright orange ball in the sky in the recent past, Amanda and her kids and I set out for the park to get some fun-in-the-winter-sun shots. I’m such a wimp now when it comes to the cold but we stayed plenty warm running around and by the time the cold finally did soak in, we trooped on over to the warmth of a nearby coffee shop. Check out the cuties!
