:: Foggy Blur ::

Posted in::Babies::,::Children::,::Family::

I honestly feel like the last month was one foggy blur. I couldn’t think of a title for this post  so I decided to call it the same. I cannot tell you that I am excited per say, for the cold weather that is arriving, but I am starting to warm up to the idea. My oldest daughter wanted to watch home videos yesterday and so I pulled one out and the memories of Christmas time flooded my mind. I suddenly found myself looking outside at the rain and accepting it. I unexpectedly wanted squash & bacon soup, (but who doesn’t want bacon at any given time of day?… so technically that wasn’t too unexpected;)) hot apple cider, and pumpkin pie. All of my senses’ memories were evoked. The seasons are changing, and as much as I love summer, I am preparing my heart and mind for the chill. I’m not saying, however, that I wouldn’t mind a few extra days of summer sunshine….

Here is a preview of a family session that I squeezed into last weekends craziness. With the wedding on Saturday then the WPPI Seattle Road trip seminar thrown in the mix, I was one busy woman. Anyways, this is such a cute little family~ The little 9 month old boy was “Mr. Serious” almost the whole time! It was tough to crack a smile out of this one, of course Grandma and I did our best to make it happen! (Thanks grandma, for giving me bunny ears and being extra goofy behind me):)Hope you all enjoy the sneak peek!

::18 Months/ Vancouver, Wa. Photographer::

Posted in::Babies::,::Children::,::Family::

18 months of life, goes by fast! My twins are now 20 months so I can attest that time is just crusin’ by! Talk about crusin’…that’s what 18 month old little munchkins do best! They are everywhere and then back again haha. It is a challenging age to photograph, but oh man, what a reward to look at the finished images. I am so happy that I was asked to freeze frame this time in little Evans life. To capture these small moments & looks that will be cherished for a lifetime to come. Thank you guys for using me as your photographer, it was great meeting you, and I look forward to your “family” photo session in October! Hope you enjoy these…

:: Julia’s {Not so pregnant} Maternity Sesh ::

Posted in::Children::,::Engagement::,::Family::,::Maternity::

Check out this super adorable family… Surrogate Momma of twins (Julia) was the winner of the pregnancy contest that was held back in May.  (Check out the link to read her story) Anyways, to make a long story short… the babies came early and we never got to have an actual pregnancy session, but I promised her that she would still be able to have a family session since she did WIN the contest after all!!:)She still was able to have her hair and make up professionally done as well.  I am happy that all was well with the twin girls that she delivered & that she is doing great. So without any further ramblings, here you are Julia, you are a much deserving woman. You have a beautiful family and I was happy to get to photograph you all! Hope you enjoy these.

**Now for a little blog fun.

Julia & Family, if you can get 30 comments (no duplicates please) on this post by 9/10/10 you will receive a free 10×10 storyboard of images! Tell all of your friends!
