VonScherr Family – Tacoma LGBTQ+ Family Photographer

All the heart eyes! I met Chandra and Madeliene at Wild Hearts Farms, one of my favorite photography venues in Tacoma. It was early evening and the sun was at the most perfect spot. Typically I like to shoot sessions later in the evening, but baby Waverly had an early bedtime. It worked out just […]
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 […]
Photo sessions to reopen during COVID — Tacoma Family Photographer

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.
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 […]
Hatcher & Ngauamo Family — Tacoma Family Lifestyle Photographer

Gina and Moses wanted to surprise their 6-year-old with some news. They had already told their daughter that they were expecting a baby in September… but what they didn’t tell her is how many babies!
Mittleider Newborn Documentary Session & Adoption Story – Seattle Family Photographer

Families created by adoption have a special place in my heart. I am adopted myself so I feel connected to these stories of children being united with their new parents. I love seeing the joy of families who were meant to be. However, the steps parents must go through to adopt a child are lengthy […]
Tree Farm Mini-Sessions Day 2 – PNW Family Photographer

Day 2 of the Tree Farm Mini-Session was just as great as Day 1! These sweet families braved the frosty air and celebrated each other with love. May you all have a joyous holiday season and a wonderful New Year! 💖💖💖 Thank you for spending your day with me and my camera!
