So this was one of my rare in-studio sessions. I was late to this one because I forgot my memory cards – of all things to forget! That’s like leaving your film at home… But even though I was 15 minutes late and they had to get dolled up right after nap time, these girls were so cooperative. I was definitely impressed. Aren’t they beautiful? Mom must be so proud!
I just realized I never posted this on my blog. If you’re not getting my facebook and twitter updates, then you haven’t seen the video from my Beach Photo FUNdraiser this spring! You can count on seeing more of these. They’re so fun!
I’m getting excited for next weekend’s Father’s Day photos – don’t forget to sign up for your time slot on Saturday, May 22, 3-6pm! Here are some fun images I did this week in preparation…
I’ve got some great ideas for Father’s Day photos, and I am taking time to get all the pieces in order this week. I have been prop and background shopping lately, so you’ll have the option to get a look that you’ve never had an opportunity to experience with me! As I gather my things, I will post example photos so you can see what I’m talking about. I’m getting excited – are you?
Okay, so Mother’s Day is over. I had a wonderful day, and I trust that all you moms had a great day too. But that means now it’s time to turn our attention to all of those wonderful Dads out there!
Photos of family are so special. It’s hard to put into words what they can do for a person’s soul. Our children are so important for so many reasons, and a portrait of them can stir up a whirlwind of emotions for proud parents. My son gave me a picture of himself in a frame which he enthusiastically decorated for Mother’s Day. It’s something that I know I will hold dear forever. What better gift could there be?
So in honor of Dad’s Day, I am hosting a Father’s Day Photo event! This will be an opportunity for you to come get a great deal on high-end, fun and personal portraits. Special packages will be available only for this event, or you can order a la carte as always!
Get your Father’s Day gift done early. Sign up for your time, enjoy a fun photo session, and choose a perfect photo package for Dad. It’s as simple as that. Contact me right away!

Happy Birthday to this guy. He’s now the big 1-2. The last pre-teenage year is a big one, isn’t it? We headed back to Richmond Beach for this session – one of my favorite Seattle area locations. It’s just so stinkin’ pretty! I can tell that mom is so proud of her son. And rightfully so. He is handsome, polite, self-confident, and creative!
Meet Holly. She’s the most enthusiastic ball-fetcher I’ve ever met. She would play fetch until she dropped dead if you let her!
Now meet Holly’s little brother. His name is Henry. Henry likes to carry things around in his mouth, and he especially likes to taunt his big sister by stealing her ball.
These two are quite the pair! And being siblings, no matter how much they drive each other bonkers, they still love each other. Aren’t they sweet?
SPPA Competition was last week, and I’m happy to announce I earned recognition for excellence with the following image. Thanks, Sue & family for the privilege of working with you!
This really cool show – Shen Yun – is coming to Chicago on April 10-11, and I won’t be there to see it. Boo Hoo! I hope someone I know in Chi-town will go, and then tell me all about it…
no, I didn't take this photo - it's from the article that's linked above!
