Welcome!

Thank you for visiting my 365 blog!

{If you'd like to visit my portrait photography website, click here.}

I'm a mom of 2 kids and have been a photographer for over 4 years. I decided to task myself with doing a 365 {or rather 366} photo project for 2012. I will take a photograph every day, with my "big girl camera". It will mostly be about my life, portrayed artistically. I want to challenge myself creatively and try new things. I'm excited about where this project will take me and I hope you will follow the journey with me!

Twins Update! - Seattle Modern Child Photography

Here's some new photos of my favorite family with two, yes two, sets of twins!  This session marked the older twins' 4th birthday, and their younger sisters were almost 1-year old in these photos.  So, if you're wondering, YES, they {and we - me and my parental support crew} were extremely busy in this 1.5 hour session.  I was literally sweating afterwards, and even a little sore the next day :)

But it was worth it!  Aren't these photos scrumptious?!

Asher - Seattle Child Photographer for the Modern Family

This is Asher.  He's the same age as Isaac, so I felt like we were comfortable and had a lot of fun together - even bonded a little!  He was a trooper as well.  We took many photos inside then went to a nearby park and did more of the same thing.  He hardly needed any bribing at all! :)

I took photos of his little sister, Lily and posted a few of my favorites last week here.  They are both sweet, wonderful kids and I can't wait to see how they grow and change!

Colorful Candid Portrait Session of a Seattle Child

You may remember Rachel.  In her short first year of life, we've met a few times for photo sessions.  This session was to celebrate her first birthday.  We decided to do a combo session- half in my studio, and half at a nearby park.  As you will see  below, we decided to have a summer-inspired theme, incorporate balloons, and use a plain-white background for the studio shots (called high-key so it doesn't end up looking gray).  Rachel didn't disappoint by bringing her stellar personality!  This ended up being one of those shoots where everything just came together.  We were all being silly and she had so much fun.  It shows in the photos.  Besides ending up with beautiful keepsake portraits, we really captured Rachel.  You can just tell who she is, can't you??  I love my job. :)  

Happy Birthday Rachel!  I can't wait to see how you'll change in the years to come!

April Mini-Sessions

I recently had some mini-sessions to celebrate the opening of my studio.  The studio worked well and I LOVED my new lights!  The families were fantastic and (I think) really had a good time.  This first photo below is one of my favorites.  She's absolutely beautiful.  The boys below were crazy hard to photograph!  We had to pull out the major distractors to get some still shots, and I really love that you can get a sense of their personality through the photograph.

I also found some great settings around the studio for some of the urban and park photos shown below.  Enjoy-

New Studio Opening April 1st!

This has been a goal of mine for over 4 years, and I'm so excited (and scared)!

Between raising Ella and Isaac, cleaning the house, and managing everything while Tim travels, its taken me a while to build the business up to this point.  I am ready though, and so is the business.  I'll be able to provide you a wider range of backdrops and props, more lighting choices, and much more.  Check out the website for new sitting fee options and changes, and call now to book your appointment!
