Sweet Jenna Bean

Jenna's mom and I have been friends since junior high - I was even in the delivery room when Jenna was born! Now she's the smartest, cutest almost-eleven year old! I had the pleasure of photographing her at a friend's farm this week. Isn't she adorable?! Thanks for the fun time girls. Hope you enjoy your little sneak peek!

Tia: Urban Cutie!

I had such a great time photographing Tia on Sunday for her senior portraits! We met up at Pike Place Market for a "walkabout" downtown, and she brought along her mom - who was a great help holding reflectors and keeping an eye out for locations - and her boyfriend Tyler, who was good at making Tia laugh.

It was a gorgeous day in the city and we found some really fun places to shoot at, including an awesome graffiti wall. We wrapped up our day with a sunset trip to Alki Beach! Here is a sneak peek of some of the images from the day. Tia is so photogenic that I had a hard time narrowing down my favorites!

Super Seniors!

I had the absolute best time photographing these two gorgeous grads-to-be! We started at Chantay's beautiful family property - a photographer's dream location with multiple beautiful settings and tons of fun props! Then we moved downtown for some more urban shots, and ran out of light long before we ran out of ideas or enthusiasm.

It was one of those great professional moments when all the stars align to make a perfect shoot - golden evening light, pretty blue eyes, bright smiles, cheerful and energetic subjects, great clothes and awesome settings all combined to make for my very favorite photo session ever! Check out a few of my fave images from today...

6 Month Old Cutie!

Isn't little Jaelynn the cutest thing ever?! She's six months old and her parents let me spend a bit of time commemorating that big milestone at a local park. The sun was a bit brighter than I planned for, but I just love her big eyes and chubby cheeks!
