Who knew that pregnancy could be so pretty … just take a look at Flan! She epitomizes that pregnancy glow, what I can only dream about looking like at NINE months pregnant! We could not let the opportunity pass to create some baby bump portraits for her and Tom.
I joked that they better enjoy these last peaceful moments before baby … but truly, look how peaceful they seem! I really love the feeling of peace that we captured between the fun, laughing moments. And all on a lunch hour!
A big congratulations to Flannary and Tom on their soon to be here little girl! I wish them all the joy in the world … and am so looking forward to meeting the little one when we will be creating her NEWBORN portraits in just a week’s time!!

Okay, how could I not post this picture? Sweet little Carolyne, in one of her earliest moments with eyes wide open, staring at Daddy, Christmas lights twinkling in the background.
There is not a more precious Christmas gift than a new little bundle of joy, arriving just before the holidays. I am so glad that I was invited to capture a few moments in the lives of Carolyne, her parents, and her older brother Sam (almost two). More pictures to come of this sweet little family.
Happy New Year, Carolyne!

Amelia was such a little mystery – a bundle of girl, adventure, shyness, energy, silliness, daring, quiet, toughness, and teddy-bear love all mixed into one little package. Which is why this little family “adventure” session was so much fun. She gets her athleticism from her talented (and camera-shy parents), who bike, run, and compete nationally in curling, (seriously) I am sure amongst other things.
We spent the morning at the Seattle Center with Amelia on her skateboard, scooter and stomp-rocket. Mixed in was some family time at the empty and awesome Seattle Center fountain, which is set to music. I actually couldn’t help myself and had to run through the fountain for fun.
And the stomp-rocket was pretty amazing. I will have to drop in some photos below, following their holiday card. Amelia has some HOPS!
At the end of the day, though, I have to admit that Amelia’s 4-year old skateboarding skills blow mine way out of the water. I will have to stick to my rollerskates.
{See?! Don’t you kinda want a stomp-rocket now?}

Another album that I offer my clients is called the Simple Album (or the Simple Joy Album). It is a popular option for everything from newborn sessions to family portrait or adventure sessions. I just created one of these with some fantastic images of a family with a little four-year-old girl who loves everything from skateboards, to scooters, to her stomp-rocket (and yes, I now want me a stomp rocket!)
These images show a sample baby album of Gracie, a 6-month old who had an adventure in food the day we created her portraits!
This album features thick pages, full page prints, numerous custom design options, beautiful leather binding (and some gorgeous vegan options as well!), and pack a good punch in both quality and heft. (I love an album that feels like an album! None of those wimpy paged, tearable things – i.e. magazine style books that won’t stand up to anything.) These are very popular for showcasing multiple sessions as well – i.e. maternity, to newborn, to 6-month, to 1-year sessions. Super fun and worth the wait.
This little post is to show clients that I walk the walk. Mmm mmm mmm, I love me some wall canvases!
The canvases that I provide to my clients are nothing less than the best. Archival quality, gallery-wrapped, printed with 100-year inks and coated with a UV protectant, these canvases are stretched on extra deep wooden frames, and arrive at your doorstep ready to hang! Art for your home does not get any easier (or more beautiful) than this!
There are a variety of ways to create impact – of course you can go large – I have printed canvases up to 40 x 60″ (yes. five. feet. wide.) but they can be ordered even bigger than that! The other way to do it is to create little collages – collections of images that display beautifully together. Mix it up! Color and black and white showcase gorgeously side by side.
What a wonderful way to celebrate family, your spouse, the ones you love. For questions about creating beautiful art for your family, please give me a call! {See my contact section}.
