Richardson Family – Gasworks Park

Every once in a while you meet a little one who has such a defined personality already it’s shocking and absolutely captivating.  I first met Ashley and JJ years ago down in San Francisco when we were all recent Seattle-transplants. After lots of park time and a lot of plane trips we eventually all found […]

There’s absolutely nothing sweeter than getting to document play time by the water with a little munchkin who can barely sit still, and then give her ice cream. Honestly, this little mini family sesh was just too adorable.

It’s not every day that you get to photograph such a beautiful family that you’ve seen grow through the years. As a lifestyle photographer I feel so lucky to get a sneak glimpse into the lives of so many terrific people. It’s even more amazing when you take a step back and appreciate the relationships […]
