Portland Oregon: Double Wedding Weekend

Think two sisters getting married in the same weekend is crazy? Nope- such a blast! These two girls made some gorgeous brides, and it was such an honor to witness their days! I had so much fun at these weddings. Each was unique, beautiful, and absolutely romantic. The weekend was wonderful- we couldn't have had any better weather, and things seemed to play out just perfectly. Congratulations ladies! Here come the pictures...
Friday's wedding:

the vows

I love this shot of the mother of the bride. So proud.

After the ceremony they rode in a canoe to the reception across the lake. So breathtaking!

The cake cutting is always fun to watch. You never know how it's going to play out! :)

It's a whirlwind!

WHEW, I am on an editing marathon! Thank you to all of my fabulous clients waiting for their images! You all are so patient-I am working hard on your galleries. :) Things have been a little bit crazy around here (announcement coming soon), but I have to take a quick minute to share some peeks. I have had some amazing sessions lately, and I am so excited about all these images. You guys rock! Here are a few from the latest and greatest...

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Seattle Washington Family Portraits: Bright Eyes, Round 3

You might remember this face from HERE or HERE. This family is moving to St. Louis, but they wanted one more Seattle portrait session before they went. Of course, I was thrilled- this cutie is so much fun, and I love to watch the little ones grow and change! And believe me, this girl is on the move now! No longer are the days of those easy 6-month portraits, where I could plop her in one spot and shoot. I think this happened 10 times- she would wiggle loose and just come running down the hill at me. Haha, I loved it, and she was definitely loving it!


I think this must be my favorite from the set. Such genuine smiles from mom and daughter .There was a very lively game of sock puppets. TOO cute. :)

This really made me giggle- We kept trying to get her to stand or sit, but she just kept scooting down like this and giving me the biggest grin. She's got such a personality. I think it totally works.

So they won't forget their time in Seattle...


I've said it before, but I just melt for those bright eyes.
Thanks to the D family for another wonderful time. I'll miss seeing your bright faces, and I wish you safe travels and fun in St. Louis!

he makes me proud

Meet my big brother.
F-16 pilot for the U.S. Air Force.
When I look at these pictures, I can't believe it's the same boy that use to get in hair-pulling fights with me, wear MC Hammer pants, and do Urkel impressions. But there he is- a grown man who makes sacrifices for our country daily, and serves without question. He makes me so proud, and I couldn't be more grateful for his efforts.
Love you bro.


Another pilot and friend.The McChord Air Force Base Air Show- All day long there were long lines of people waiting to shake the hand of these two. This boy had 20 questions for him, and my brother answered every one with a smile. It made me smile too.


Okay, I also wanted to post some more sneak peeks- I've got a lot of them waiting! Here are a few from some of my most recent sessions/events. As always, there will be more to follow!

Love those bright eyes.

From my 8-8-08 wedding.

These dogs kept me running!

From my 8-9-08 wedding. S+A

From last night's session. Two boys with the freedom to pick their own outfits= so much fun.

New Website!


Finally! After hours and hours and HOURS of work, the new website is live.

There are still a couple kinks- on some screens you will get some cropping of the logo and menu buttons when you view it in the same window. If you choose "enter full screen" you shouldn't have this issue at all. I'll be correcting this shortly, but I just couldn't wait any longer to launch.

I am most excited about the new client galleries. I now offer password protected galleries, as well as online ordering- prints, products, and packages. Take a look around, and let me know if you experience any problems so I can correct them.

I'd love to hear what you think!

Seattle Washington Engagement: Kristen Honeycutt

Here are some more from this engagement portrait session on Alki in Seattle. Now this one was fun! Aren't they cute??! These two were so natural together- without much coaching from me, they were cuddling, holding hands, and sharing those "love looks". We slowly made our way from one side of Alki to the other. Then we ended the evening at Salty's to discuss all the fun details of their wedding and grab a drink. These two quickly won me over, and I couldn't be more excited for their beautiful wedding!

Mill Creek WA: Family Portraits

I had so much fun meeting this family. I arrived to find two adorable little ballerinas who were eager to show me both their home and their dance moves. I was easily wrapped around their fingers! They have some pretty cool parents too, and I could tell right away that this group has some good times together!


This one is my favorite from the set!!

My new favorite spot to photograph. The light is goooooorgeous!

These girls got some serious air. I hope dad's back is okay after all the tossing! :)


Just beautiful.
