It's Senior Portrait Time!

The leafs are starting to change, the days are getting shorter, there is that crisp bite to the air in the early morning... must be back to school time!  
And back to school means Senior Portrait time!  
I still have spots available for yearbook deadline portraits this year ~ Hurry and book your session today.  

Tips for great Senior Portraits:
  • Get a good nights sleep the night before your session
  • Prep all of your outfits and accessories the day before
  • Glasses? Ask your optometrists for your frame without the lenses - most will lend them out for the day
  • Practice your smile
  • Blemishes?  Bring cover up or be sure to request that blemishes are fixed in editing
  • HAVE FUN!  




Jennifer and Randy Wedding - August 20th


What an amazing day for a wedding!
Jennifer and Randy were married at one of the most memorable and beautiful wedding venues I have photographed to date.  The Cabin At Mount Pilchuck where the views were stunning, the setting remote and the people were amazing!

A rainy morning calls for a cozy breakfast

Typically Seattle summer starts about July 5th and me and my fellow Seattleites were using that motto to keep us optimistic considering the unfortunate spring and early summer weather we were having.  Well July 5th has come and gone and we are still hanging out in the 50/60 degree temperatures with rain... UGH!  

But we prevail!  
Our summer BBQ's become indoor gatherings and some unsuspecting chef slaves over a hot grill in the ever present Seattle drizzle.  You have to give us credit for keeping the summer spirit alive even with the gray weather and unusually chilly days.  However this morning I had a tough time putting on my pretend summer spirit when we woke up to rain yet again.  So we loaded up in the car and went and filled our bellies with rather large but amazingly delicious breakfast at the Maltby Cafe!

Now I quit my job to pursue my passion for photography and I had grand dreams of getting up before dawn and photographing breathtaking sunrises, well when the weather is gray and raining you don't really get that opportunity.  So I did the next best thing and photographed my amazing breakfast experience using my phone camera... Enjoy!
