It was so much fun to spend time with a violinist colleague and her family recently. She warned me beforehand that baby Walter may not smile and then he smiled in EVERY photo! Congrats Larissa and Matthew!

My cousin Amanda wrote this on my wall (remember when that was a thing?) 13 years ago today, before I started this business, and it reminds me why I am so glad I made photography a bigger part of my life: “I was thinking about your photography last night as I gleefully saw the photos you posted of our adventures, and as I see the comments people make about your pictures. And I realized something wonderful.

I am finishing up an awesome book called "The Happiness Project," by Gretchen Rubin. It's one of those life-changing reads and I would recommend it to anyone.

Anyway, the author cites a lot of research about happiness, and one finding is that the happiness we experience during events can be prolonged by reliving those memories through photographs and other keepsakes. She makes it a goal to "be a treasure trove of happy memories" and starts to keep scrapbooks of photos and other mementos to extend her happiness.

I realized that you, my friend and cousin, are a treasure trove of happy memories for so many people. I relive happy times every day through your lens, and it helps me eke out as much possible joy as I can from the things we do together.

My sincere and heartfelt thanks! You are much appreciated.”

Photo cred to Lily’s mama the other day at our senior session at Bella Bella beach, getting that reflection of her in the pool just right!

Jasmine and I had sooo much fun at her senior session at the Pt Defiance Rose Garden last week. She was visiting Tacoma from Colorado for a K-Pop concert and decided to get her senior photos taken while here!

A big happy family surrounded by full-bloom Queen Anne's lace and harbor backgrounds? Yesssss. They went with a more darker, modern edit and I love how they turned out.

It doesn't get any better than 20 minute minis at Skansie Park in the summer! I adore this family so much. I have 2 more slots Sept 5 booking link in comments), and it also works for a standard 30 minute session here any time, all the way into November when the leaves on the opposite bank change color.

It feels plain wrong to be discussing fall on one of the hottest summer days of the year, but Sept, Oct, and Nov (seen below) are going to fill up FAST, so if you are thinking about family or senior photos, now is the time to book! I also still have limited summer availability the last week of July and August.
