Meet Brittany.  Absolutely stunning ball of spice, energy and laughter.  One of our shortest members of the street team, I didn’t realize until she showed up to her session in sandals and being vertically challenged myself, I towered over her. One of the things I love most about seniors + this street team idea is […]

I had hoped to have all our 2012 Street Team members introduced to you by now- but wedding season and portrait season picked up and slammed me so unexpectedly, in addition, we have chosen the most active seniors on the planet to represent our brands SO of course my well planned out attempt at getting […]

I love this family.  I had so much fun a year ago taking Jaci’s maternity pictures while she was pregnant with little J, it was so exciting when she message me to do their first photo.  That is another joy of this job- to continue to watch people grow and change and to be apart […]

I love when a family makes pictures a priority.  There is nothing like having them done for the moment, but its really for the long term that makes pictures so important and so magical.  What’s even cooler is when families have pictures taken for the first time and they realize in that moment that the […]

I have been blessed to be a part of so many amazing photography communities as we have grown over the last two years, but one in particular that is closest to my heart is called Pursuit 31.  Pursuit 31 is a photography group based around the Proverbs 31 woman in the bible + the desires […]

There are few things I remember about life, but one thing that always has and always will stand out to me is people.  People are important to me and I value my relationships. When I was in 2nd grade, I met this beautiful blond girl named Stephanie.  She and I shared the same 2nd and […]

Isaiah and I really enjoy Willie and his cool ways.  Doesn’t he seem cool?  Just chill.  He’s quiet, but funny and we had such a blast running around the streets of his favorite city, Seattle.  We wanted to highlight all of the things […]

Layci and Nick have over the last 11 years become some of our dearest friends.  It was Layci who I worked my first job together at 18 co-directing a camp for “at risk” youth in Tacoma’s Hilltop.  Nearly 5 years later, Layci took a leap of faith on me and hired me for one of […]
