Three days old!

Meet Mr. Ethan. What a doll he was. Barely three days old and already mugging for the camera. :) His mommy and daddy have been waiting a very long time for this little guy's arrival. Congratulations, guys!!

Family Fun On-Location

Oddly enough, I get a lot of questions based on whether or not I travel for sessions. I've always thought it was obvious based on the content of my galleries, on-location price options and locations in the calendars. Apparently not, my fault. Oops! :) Time to share some on-location ONLY and skip my studio work!!

In the past few months, some of the places I've been are the tulip fields in Mt. Vernon, a beach on Camano Island, a home in Spokane for a newborn session, two families in North Bend, and east on Highway 2 for a family who likes the outdoors. Shortly I'll be off to Oregon for beach sessions this summer and of course, I'll be spending all my October weekends outdoors as well. I LOVE the autumn leaves!!!

So, yes, I travel!! Where's the furthest I've gone? There were a few families I photographed in California in the San Francisco area. Weddings I've helped with in Mexico. Sessions I've helped with in Austin,Texas. What I love the most is finding new fun places to photograph and explore.

Thanks for getting me out of the studio!!

June Baby

Happy June!! Where'd the sunshine go??

Ah well, I had a little bit of sunshine in my studio the other day. Please welcome Miss A, 6 days old and weighing in at 4 and a half pounds! What a perfect petite little doll she was! She obliged me by sleeping for most of the session and then popping awake at the end to give me the "look". I get the "look" a lot from little babies. It's them saying "What the heck do you think you're doing disturbing my sleep with that bright light!!" Thanks Miss A!! That look is a keeper!
