Team Fanelli always shows up looking cute for a photo shoot and this year was no different. Little Scarlett dawned a fuzzy cozy pink vest and sweet bow for her hair while her teeny tiny sister Lorelai had an amazing headwrap on. It was inspo for me too on these chilly morning shoots. I think […]

Ulusarac Family – Discovery Park

How do you prepare for a fall photo shoot with completely unknown weather variables in the Pacific Northwest? As a general rule, just prepare for any and all of it. Coats, vests, blankets, whatever is necessary for the elements. Will it rain? Probably. Is that ok? It all depends on you, but generally, I like […]

I recently had the honor of photographing Dan and Steve in their beautiful home on a lovely Southern California day and bonus, Dan’s sister Effie was visiting from Israel, so we got lots of photos of all of them. A person’s home says so much. It’s where we find our comforts and create special memories. […]

Windemuth Family – Washington Arboretum

Team Windemuth wanted fall foliage for this year’s family session.  Additionally, mom (Gina) had a very specific request given we’d be photographing her two wild and adorable boys, please give them room to run around.  Thankfully I had just the place, and the autumn leaves and weather cooperated with our shoot date. We ended up […]

I’ve photographed this awesome family since their first kiddo, and now they’ve blossomed into a powerhouse party of 5. Beth and James always crack me up with their humor every session we have, and it’s clear that they’ve passed on that silliness to their 3 girls. These ladies didn’t keep still for more than a […]

Bowe Family – Washington Arboretum

Being a twin must be such an interesting experience. You were born together, you know each other better than anyone else and you probably at times think that you have telepathy. What about when you’re a toddler and a twin? I recently photographed little Brooklyn and Lucy and their awesome parents for a fall family […]

Weddings

Kerri and Marc are two of the most beautiful souls I’ve met, and it just warms my heart that they have found each other. Kerri is in social work, and Marc is a middle school teacher. They share a common passion for bettering the world and supporting others, and their circle of friends and family […]

Peterson Family – San Mateo

Hello world! Meet little Elliott! He’s the little sweetheart belonging to proud parents Sarah and Alexander. Earlier this year I got to have a maternity shoot with them and hear all about their plans for parenthood. I remember how much they were brimming with excitement and ready for this transformative moment. Fast forward to our […]

Photographing with Andrew and Dyana over at Lands End in San Francisco was such a moody and beautiful treat. Across town it was sunny and warm, but over in the city near the coast, it was overcast and downright chilly. Dru used to be my desk-mate way back in the day at an ad agency […]

Tricia Portraits – Seattle

I had a super fun photo session with the vibrant and funny Tricia a couple of weeks back. We were super lucky to get a break from the heat and the smoke from the fires plaguing the area last month. We picked Seattle’s South Lake Union neighborhood to provide the backdrop. It was a perfect […]
