I will always remember this little guy.  This session was a huge turning point for my newborn style. I went in to the home with no plans of posing and only the intention to capture the true essence of who this little baby was, just like I do with my family sessions.  You see, I was still posing newborns in the more "modern" way but it really didn't suite me.  This is my style of newborn photography and I love it so.  

It really started when my third baby was born.  She was sound asleep, I got all my newborn stuff out, got her naked and started to pose her.  And it felt wrong to see her like that, unnatural.  She was perfect just how she was.  So I changed.  Newborn photography will always be special to me, probably because of my ten years as a NICU nurse, but the way I capture my newborns and the people who love them is so much more me now and that is a beautiful thing.

This newborn shoot was one of my favorites to date.  Just so real. My style of newborn photography has evolved and changed over the years and it feels so much more like me now. Focusing on the connection and the new family that is so special.  

Family & Seattle Skyline

This was the third time I have had the privilege capturing this lovely bunch.   We met at a fabulous Seattle park where we had beach and city views.  Can't beat that.  Mostly, we had fun, the girls played, and I captured their true awesomeness.  Mama was wondering if we got anything.  Yup, I would say we did.  Family photography is so rewarding.  Makes my heart happy.

Can You Feel It?

We had to reschedule, it took me over an hour to get to their house due to traffic, I was 45 minutes late, but o was it worth the wait.   I walked in and I felt it.  What, what did I feel?  I felt their family intensity.  It was electric.  There was love, passion and so much more.  They have only just located here from over seas, so much adjusting going on, but so much to feel.  I spent over two hours with them.  Their gallery is huge.  No shame in that.  If a family just gives and gives, I take and take, photos that is.  I felt like I got just a small glimpse into the very core of this very powerful family and I hope I was able to capture even just a small bit of what makes them so wonderful.  Thank you, for inviting me into your world for an evening.  It was wonderful and validated why I love what I do so much. <3
