I love living in Seattle, but oh, I do wish we had more sunshine and warm weather sometimes! This beautiful girl and her sister were the best little models…they obligingly traipsed through a VERY VERY muddy field for me with no complaint! Would you look at the BLONDE hair on these girls!! Such gorgeous kids!!

I had the pleasure of taking this little guy’s photos when he was 6 months old. Look how he’s grown! He’s 14 months now and on the go! This is such a fun age (though a hard one to capture a photo of!). We had to reschedule the original shoot because of rain, and I’m kind of glad we did. We ended up with a beautiful evening in Fremont and ended up at Gasworks park! I had a great evening and hope you guys did too, and the drive wasn’t too bad!
Here’s a few from the shoot to tide you over!
Look at those blue eyes!
And killer smile!
We ended up at Gasworks where the planes taking off from the lake were a big hit!

I had a wonderful session this week with this beautiful family Their kids were adorable (and so were they!), but we had quite the challenge with the newly mobile one! I love that age…they are just sooo curious and BUSY BUSY BUSY! And on the go! So, there was a lot of this going on….

But big sister finally captured him and held his attention the way only a big sister can:
Here’s the baby charmer herself:
I enjoyed our session and meeting these two wonderful kids!

We had some great weather this week (finally!), so we headed to one of my favorite spots for this photoshoot. These 3 kids were adorable! I think they were a little disappointed I ran out of pez though! Sorry about that! Here are a few of my favorites from the session.
This little guy was FEARLESS!
And adorable! Look at those eyes!
This little girl was a bit shy, but sooo sweet!
This one was a natural model though! She did inform me that she is not going to be a model when she grows up…she will be a scientist and a rockstar! I don’t doubt it!

This adorable couple is expecting their first baby in a couple months, and I had the privilege of taking their maternity photos! We had a lot of fun at the session, and I hope I can come back and meet their new family member soon! Here are just a few of the highlights of the session.

The weather was gorgeous, but COLD! We went to Discovery Park for a fun session with this 13-year-old! 13!! She’s a beautiful young woman and we had a fun time!
I love this photo of the daughter of a friend of mine. It was taken when we were all out to lunch at the Old Spaghetti Factory! They had just lovely light coming through their windows! I want to book sessions there! I’m thinking the management wouldn’t appreciate it though.
It goes to show though that sometimes we have to just grab the moment.

How cute is this little button?? She had the most adorable little hair that tufted up no matter what! Such a sweetie!!
I had a wonderful session on Thursday with this lovely 4-year-old.
Doesn’t she have the bluest eyes?
She was a lot of fun…she rarely stopped dancing! I have a lot more editing to do, so these are just a couple of my favorites. ! I was so happy the rain held off so we could go outside for a bit!
