By request this year, I’ve begun offering mini pet sessions, with our indoor event planned for this October. But Miss Meeka recently had a puppy spa session and didn’t want to wait! So we met at Van Lierop Park in Puyallup for a quick photo shoot. Miss Meeka is super sweet and loved the camera….
About last weekend… If you’ve hung around here for any length of time, you know we’re always encouraging couples to do their own thing and break the “rules” of wedding planning.
