Being homeschool parents brings a unique aspect to each of our client interactions. It’s a hard thing for me to sometimes “turn off” the homeschool mom in me, so you’ll likely find me spouting some random educational fact. Or you’ll find Jake teaching someone the art of finding four leaf clovers. Megan + Ben probably…
One of our favorite things is getting to see clients come back time and time again. We get the joy of watching families grow and flourish, bringing little ones back year after year for Santa sessions. Little Gus decided to arrive early, making his appearance just after our yearly Santa sessions, but before Christmas last…
Stephanie + Howard are amazing clients, whom we met through our Saturn Barter Membership. We were blessed to join them for their engagement session back down on the Tacoma Waterfront. We met next to the sundial at Jack Hyde Park (aka. Commencement Park) and chatted a bit before we started. Stephanie had the fun idea…
In April, I was able to join Julie of Sound and Sea Photography at Kiana Lodge in Poulsbo for Taylor + Dallas’ beautiful pacific northwest wedding. As much as I love second shooting, it’s hard to write about couples I really don’t know. So instead, I’m going to show you their beautiful wedding while talking…
Imagine with me: You meet someone online and after some chatting decide to meet in person. You set a place and time, but when you arrive they’re nowhere to be found. What do you do next? Do you sigh, figure you’ve been stood up and then leave? Or do you wait it out and hope…
The overwhelming joy of getting to photograph friends weddings is unmeasurable. This year I was able to photograph the wedding of not one childhood friend, but TWO! Devon is the daughter of my across the street neighbor, and one of the neighborhood kids I grew up with. We’ve been connected for as long as I…
Early this spring, we had a booth for the Barn at Wilson Farm open house. I had a session that day, but Jake was able to stay and meet some new friends. Jenny and Albert were one of the couples he met that day and they loved him. We were so excited when they chose…
It’s that time of year again, and we’re over halfway to Christmas! (Don’t judge me, my Halloween loving friends… We’re still celebrating that too.) This year, I’m finally ahead of the game and posting Santa Session bookings early. Santa Sessions in 2023 The past few years we’ve always done our sessions outside at a lovely…
This year has been full of sessions that almost didn’t happen. From bee stings to cows that refuse to get in their trailers, it’s been a wild ride fitting in all the engagement and family sessions. But this one almost didn’t happen for another, more typical reason: Troy didn’t want his photo taken. For most…
Trinity Tree Farm tends to top most photographers’ lists as a dream venue. When I first started weddings, it was a bucket list venue for us and this year we finally got to fulfill that dream with an amazing couple’s wedding! Kiersten + Phillip chose the Lodge at Trinity Tree Farm for their wedding and…
