A month or so ago, I saw a post come across my Instagram feed. It said “This is your sign to paint with your children” and featured a mom with her toddler daughter painting a canvas during their photography session. The results were super sweet and I knew immediately I wanted to do this with…
I’ve said it before, but it’s always a blessing to spend time with clients who return year after year. When Wayne + Miranda hired us in 2019 for their 2020 Brookstom Creek Wedding, we were thrilled to learn they were down for anything I recommended. We journeyed to Gold Creek Pond for their engagement, then…
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….
Several years ago, I found myself navigating the joys and challenges of single parenthood, with one particular Christmas tradition proving to be a bit more challenging than anticipated.

Yet, there’s something uniquely delightful when family members turn to me for photography favors. Their requests always come with a hint of reluctance, as if they…
It’s always a blessing for me when clients return, even if there are years between their sessions. It’s like receiving a warm embrace from an old friend, a testament to the connections we’ve formed and the memories we’ve shared. It’s moments like these that make my heart dance with delight, much like the radiant smile…
I’ve been blessed to have a front row seat to this incredible family as they’re related to me. Ha! It’s been amazing watching my cousin go through a crummy divorce, find true love in Chris and then grow into an incredible mom with two awesome boys. Lucky for me, they count me as their auntie…
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.
