The Davis Clan

 I had the good pleasure of spending last weekend in beautiful Yakima Washington, photographing my dear friend Tanya Davis and her entire family!  What a hoot!  It was great to be out of the city and surrounded by sunshine, sage, and truly wonderful people.  A big "Thank You" to Tanya and the entire  Davis clan!

Instagram Inspiration

If you follow my blog, then you already know that I’m obsessed with the camera on my iPhone.  Seriously.  I just love it! 

About a year ago I joined Instagram, which has only fueled my obsession.   For those of you who don’t know, Instagram is a photo sharing program that allows you to snap a photo on your phone, run it through a cool filter, and then share it with all of your friends via Facebook, Twitter, or their own Instagram feed.  I’m truly blown away by the gorgeous work that is being made out there!!!  It’s so inspiring!

Since it’s launch in 2010, Instagram has exploded.  The only problem is, what do you do with all of those tiny photos trapped on your  phone?  I personally believe that beautiful pictures should not only be shared, they should be printed!  Luckily, there are many ways to make that happen.

Check out this post I wrote on Little Bellows for all sorts of great ideas!!

Sneak Peek: Yakima Family Session

I spent my afternoon in beautiful and sunny Yakima, WA working with one of my favorite families!  These pictures are so fun, I just had to put up a quick sneak peek.  But trust me, there are more to come!

From Today....

I had such a great newborn session today.  Just had to share!

Seattle Wedding: In Film

I had the pleasure of working a beautiful wedding last weekend with the lovely and talented Christina Mallet, of Katrinka's Secret.   While we were shooting the couple's portraits, I decided to take out my Rolleiflex, and shoot a few old school film images.  And I'm so glad I did.  Aren't these just so lovely?!

Harvey and Dexter turn six!

Today my babies turn six!  So hard to believe!!  

Happy Birthday H and D!

To my sons

The best of the best. I love watching you guys grow your learning and stretching how your tiny bodies change from chubby little hands to muscly looking arms as you strain to climb just a little higher finally conquering your favorite “climbing tree” out front. I love how your words and questions turn clearer and make more sense with every passing day. I look forward to the times when you come home for the holidays and we can sit and talk about anything. everything. You’re my little men and for now those conversations are more a picture of snuggling, tickling and lots and lots of giggles and kisses. I love these moments and soaking them up as much as I possible can cause I know the day is coming when I’ll stand in the driveway watching you pull away fighting back the tears cause I know how much I’ll miss you, till you’re home for Christmas.
