I had photographed Mike and Traci’s weddings back in 2005 in Portland and Seattle. Yes, you heard right, they had so many people coming they needed two weddings to accommodate their guests! Well of course it was more complicated then that but I won’t go into detail as my reason for blogging is their 6 month old daughter Lauren. They approached me to do a series of photographs over the course of Lauren’s first year. My Baby’s 1st Year in photos series I do for clients really interested in capturing that special time when so much changes so quickly developmentally and we parents are all too sleep deprived to remember much of it later! I offer three sessions and let them decide between maternity/newborn/6 months/1st year. The end product of which is a lovely custom keep sake album with highlights from the chosen three sessions. Here are some of my favorites from the 6 month session with Lauren. Lauren is a very patient subject and super expressive! We also invited her slightly younger cousin Matthew to join in, who has his own session coming up. They are quite the pair!

Welcome to my blog!
Okay...this is the part where I talk about me. I am a certifiable Northwest girl now after 20 years in Seattle. I love the independent spirit of this town! The coffee, the culture, the kooky enclaves, the gorgeous mountains that hug the city on all sides, all this inspires and motivates my photography! I grew up with the sun and surf, and so every now and then I need to fly south and get tossed around by a wave until I have sand in my ears. When I am not working with the remarkable people I am lucky enough to call my clients, I am often home with my remarkable family folding laundry or making dinner. It's a wonderful life!!
