It’s always fun catching up with couples whose weddings I’ve photographed – but it’s even sweeter when there’s a new family member involved! I caught up with Laura and Ross at their new house in Tacoma a couple of months ago and got to meet their sweet little puppy, Fox. Needless to say, I had to share a few of these on the blog. Wishing you all a very happy New Year’s Eve!

Every once in awhile, as I’m shooting, I realize I’ve just captured an image that will become one of my favorites ever. As soon as I clicked the shutter on this one, I could feel it – their happy smiles, pretty flower crowns, and the naturally filtered sunlight all just came together to make a moment that I am so glad to have caught on camera. Can’t wait to share more from this fun family session.

I love this family! They are all so sweet, they have amazing style (did you see the little guy in his bow tie?! And her sweet little boots?!) AND they were willing to spend extra time hanging out on this windy, cold day at Golden Gardens to let me photograph their holiday family pictures. What more could I ask for?! ;) I still have a couple spots left for family portraits before the holidays are in full swing and it’s too late! Head to my contact form up above (under “connect”) if you’d like to snag a session before 2014 is history! :)
