Holiday Tree Farm Mini-Sessions – Day 1 – Tacoma Family Photographer

What a year, WHAT A YEAR! Can you believe 2020 is almost over (finally!)? This season was so crazy with masking up, wiping down, keeping apart. I can’t believe we successfully completed five days of socially distanced mini-sessions in October and November! That’s over 60 families for minis ALONE. I can’t thank you enough for […]

Sara + Daniel – PNW Wedding Photographer

Today marks Sara and Daniel’s one-year wedding anniversary! We had such a great time at their intimate, beachside wedding last year. I’ve been photographing weddings for over 16 years (and I’ll be celebrating my own 9th wedding anniversary next month!), but it still always amazes me how much goes into planning even the smallest details […]

Paris – Tacoma Senior Portrait Photographer

I photographed Paris’ sister a few years ago for her senior portraits so when it was Paris’ turn, I was beyond thrilled. Their family is super sweet and I’m so grateful that they came back for both girls’ senior portraits! We started at the Wright Park Conservatory and then popped down to Tacoma’s 6th Ave […]

Motherhood — Tacoma Lifestyle Family Photographer

Happy mother’s day to the moms of one and to moms of many, to moms who have lost children, to children who have lost their moms, to those with strained relationships, and to those who want to be a mom. Happy mother’s day to grandmas and aunties and extra and bonus moms, mama bears, fur moms, mamas, mimis, gigis, and nanas. You are strong, you are special, you are loved.

Modern School Portraits – Tacoma School Portrait Photographer

This year I celebrated my 3rd year offering school portraits. Never did I think it would be this successful. I’m so grateful to my schools, the teachers and directors, families, and especially the kiddos who allow me to take their photos each year. School portraits are something I look forward to every Spring and Fall […]

Ciana + Chris – Seattle Elopement Photographer

It’s their 1-year anniversary, so I figured it was only fitting to share Ciana and Chris’ rainy day elopement! I’ve known Ciana for many years. I believe we met through Megan one night at someone’s party… in some apartment… where all I remember is that they were drinking terrible beer. Anyway, those details don’t matter! […]

Felix Family Adoption Stories – Seattle Documentary Photographer

Right now is the time when we need family and connection the most but with sessions being postponed and gatherings canceled, my job as a photographer has halted. I’ve been trying to figure out how I can still create those connections by blogging and sharing photos from previous sessions. Then this one popped into my […]

Coleman + Marshall Wedding — PNW Wedding Photographer

Early Spring of last year, Cameron messaged me on Facebook to ask me if I’d be the photographer for his wedding with Annie scheduled for October. They’re good friends of mine and our kids went to preschool together, so I couldn’t pass it up! “It’s going to be a surprise,” he said. “Annie doesn’t know […]
