We do not remember days; we remember moments.         ~Cesare Pavese


For me, it is always about the moments.  Thank you so much sweet friends for a wonderful evening at the beach with your adorable family.  I hope you enjoy the little moments we captured.

Just a note, summer sessions are  completely booked. I am now scheduling into September and October.  If you would like a session, please contact me soon.  New digital image collections are now available for purchase!


Between the innocence of babyhood and the dignity of manhood, we find a delightful creature of a boy.

Thank you so much for such a fun session, Brandee and Adam.  Your boys are adorable!  I hope you enjoyed your sneak peek!

I was so thrilled to be asked by fellow photographer Jessica Hamlin to photograph her family.  I had such a fun time with her sweet, silly boys! I am sure there is never a dull moment in the Hamlin house with these two little munchkins running about. Adorable, sweet and full of life and love.

I am so honored you asked me to capture these moments for you, Jessica. Thank you! I hope you enjoy this little sneak peek of our session.  We were so lucky to find just the perfect spot to capture that beautiful, golden light.  Shhhh… don’t tell anyone about our “secret” location that just might have been the Marysville Home Depot parking lot.  hehe!  There is beauty all around us.  We just have to open our eyes to see it.

And here is one very beautiful family…

If you are interested in scheduling a session for your own family, please contact me soon.   I am currently booking early fall sessions.

Just take a peek and you will see…

You have such a beautiful family, Sharee and Ryan.  I enjoyed our session so much!

We were so lucky to have a gorgeous spring evening for our session last week.  Mom and I had been watching the forecast and were ready to reschedule when the outlook miraculously changed and we were given the gift of beautiful sunshine.  We were able to schedule late enough to capture the most gorgeous evening light, just as the sun went down.   I think keeping those little ones up even a little past bedtime is worth it on a day as beautiful and as special as picture day!

Thank you Brad and Debbie for a wonderful, fun session! Your girls are just the cutest!

The rain didn’t dampen our fun even though it did force us to reschedule many sessions!  Living in the Pacific Northwest has been a bit tough this spring, hasn’t it?  I had such a lovely time meeting up with moms and their children for these sessions.  Here are just a few from this past weekend… more to come from other sessions soon!

Enjoy the little things,

for one day you may look back and realize

they were the big things.


I thought this recent session was the perfect one to share on this Mother’s Day weekend.  I hope you all have a wonderful Mother’s Day and spend time enjoying the little moments that make life so sweet.


After rescheduling because of rain last month, we were determined not to let the rain stop us this time.  But my goodness, it was cold!  Little Teagan was so adorable and was such a trooper despite the sprinkles and chilly weather.  We lasted about 20 minutes!  So expect to see more of this little cutie soon when we finish her session next month!

My first session outdoors after a long, wet winter and it was so great to be outside again!   Little Finley has the most beautiful blue eyes, rosy cheeks and lots of spunk.    This session was full of tickles, hugs and laughter…  and so much fun!

I enjoyed every minute Megan and Gabe.  Finley is so much fun.  Thanks for a great session!

Baby mine, don’t you cry
Baby mine, dry your eyes
Rest your head close to my heart
Never to part, baby of mine

You’re so precious to me
Cute as can be, baby of mine

Sweet baby Kamilla was a little unsettled during the early moments of our session together.  But being held in the arms of her mommy and cuddled by her daddy calmed this sweet little one right down.  We were able to capture sweet, loving moments between this beautiful family.

I loved our time together and I hope you enjoy this blog sneak peek, Kori and Jason.
