Isaiah had the opportunity last month to join April Greer on a job down to Los Angeles, CA to record a promo video for April as she shot for Towel Dry. Just had to brag a little, like a good little wife would. You can check out April’s work here: aprilgreer.com or aprilgreerblog.com You can […]

I keep saying that my friend Tamika is carrying twins + although the doctor says there is only one little girl in there, I still stand behind my previous statement. Tamika wanted to have maternity photos done + not that I claim to be the best at it, or even good at all–I was so […]

Our beautiful friend’s Seth + Haley are having a baby.  A girl.  or maybe a boy.  I’m not really sure, but I am really excited for them + they are really excited for her, or him or twins?  We got together + they rocked their first photo shoot/maternity session + were so amazingly photogenic + […]

Like Kristina, the Ndegwa have been incredibly encouraging + great new clients + friends.  We met them in early December for their first ever Christmas pictures in Wright Park in downtown Tacoma.  Much like the shoot before, we were easily deceived by what we thought translated into warmth by the sun making its rare appearance. […]

I know, I know.  I love my clients. You hear me talk about how amazing every single one of my clients is + I absolutely mean it.  They are kind + thoughtful + encouraging and care about me + Isaiah as people, not just as their photographers.  The next couple of posts are long overdue […]

I love this girl so much! We have grown together so much this year + at this point she’s family.  I am so grateful for her support, and even though she’s 10 years younger than Ike + I, this little girl encourages like no other. Destinee has been a huge part of getting us to […]

It was the end of October, a wedding I had big dreams for as I envisioned sunset on Lake Washington and all of the golden light and sun flare that I had practiced to prepare for this wedding, but on Saturday October 24th, my indian summer wedding quickly turned from dreams of golden haze to […]

There is nothing like being stuck at home sick + hearing the phone ring with UPS at your door.  A special delivery: our very first wedding album from GraphiStudios {graphistudios.com}!  We are thrilled + carried that album around with us tonight like it was a small child!  So exciting: having a real life album to […]

Every time we get the opportunity to photograph a baby I am reminded of how completely amateur I am as a photographer and how much more I still need to learn.  YES!  I said it, amateur + behind + weak + completely incompetent.  Babies are hard! You have heard me say it once + I’ll […]

There is nothing like having a spiritual home + no one knows that better than me.  I was raised in the church, like literally raised.  I was at church every Sunday, Sunday night, Wednesday night, special event + potluck.  Any time the church was open we were there + though I have few memories of […]

Isaiah has had dreams of a social networking party for the last six months + every time he brought it up I would shoot his idea down.  Not because I didn’t think it was great–because my husband is brilliant + rarely has lame ideas, but because it was completely unfeasible.  At the time of his […]

I met Charis on a early November Day to work on some head shots + pictures for her new website “Without Doubt Weddings” www.withoutdoubtweddings.com. WithoutDoubt, Charis says is “absolutely, beyond any doubt, categorically, clearly, decidedly, doubtless, doubtlessly, easily, explicitly, expressly, far and away, finally, indubitably, no ifs ands or buts about it, obviously, plainly, positively, […]
