Total SUPERMODEL.  I smiled the entire photo shoot…she’s another...

Senior Pictures: Elizabeth

This is Elizabeth from Lake Washington High School…at just 17 she has such a presence about her — kind of like Miss America…SO beautiful and poised.  And can I really go any further without making mention of her fabulous hair?  What is that Loreal commercial…”I’m worth it”…whatever it is, I would totally buy whatever she’s...

Children’s Portrait: Brown Kids

Saddle Up!  Meet the Brown kids Liam and Morgan.  I love playing dress up with kids and Mom Erica brought THE most darling outfits.  It was so hard to choose.  At just 6 mos and 3 years…just looking at these shots alone…you’d think these kids were total pros (and in the 90+ degree temps no...

Skyline Senior: Becca

Becca makes you want to smile.  She (and her entire family actually) have such a warm energy and spirit.   I photographed Becca’s sister Rachael a couple of years ago for her senior pictures and the two of them look so much alike…if it weren’t for the hair color and an extra half inch of height...

Professional Headshot: The Importance of Staying Current

Hard to believe these images were made just 16  months apart, right?  Like many women, Mary Lee likes to keep her “look”…hair, clothes etc, up to date and current.  When she noticed that changing her hairstyle had completely altered her overall appearance — she called to update her headshot. SO smart!  Part of a professional...

Isn’t she just SO super sweet in her little sundress?  At just 14 mos, this is my third photo shoot with Ocean.  She completed her last session of her Baby Love Collection… The “watch me grow” year of portraits is always fun for me because the babies change so much from month to month.  It...

Child Portrait: Isaac

“Never underestimate the power of a cookie!” — total words to live by if you’re Isaac, age 2!  I am SO not above a bribe and when we had been photographing this baby boy outside, I had more than alluded to the fact that I had cookies back in the studio.  When we got back...
