Happy Holloween

Everyone looked awesome. There were so many cute costumes. Please don't be offended if you don't see yours. I could only post so many...

Thank you to EVERYONE whom came out for our FUN Halloween event. I had so much fun photographing all the cute kids in costumes...

Hope you all enjoy your free picture, and don't forget to schedule your family portrait session for the Holidays. Christmas is going to be here before you know it.

The Townsend Family

We arrived just after the sun went behind the trees leaving a nice sunset over Mt. Rainier. I love the beautiful fall colors behind the kids in these individual portraits. The lighting is so flattering.

I met Dawn last year at Burley Glenwood Elementary school. She was the co-president of the P.T.A. there. This sweet lady puts in some major behind the scenes time to make school functions run at the school. I just love her giving heart and gentle spirit. She is raising a terrific family too....

Thank you Dawn for inviting me to photograph your family... Hope I didn't wear you all out making you hike that mountain...HAHA....

The Mattos Family

Here are a few of the Mattos family. I love this little beach in Manchester. It's one of the few around the sound with that nice white sand that you love to run your fingers through. Not to mention it's one of the best spots to see the Seattle skyline to the North and Mt. Rainier to the South. Gorgeous. If you've never been there, I recommend the short drive. Nice place to catch a sunset....

Enjoying the fall sooooo much

Autumn has always been my favorite time of year. I love the cool crisp air, the changing colors of the leaves. The littering of leaves of the ground. This year has been amazing for Washington. We've had so many warm fall days with so little rain. I love seeing the sun shining. The trees look like burning embers of reds, oranges and yellows glowing. I've been very lucky to have several families book their outdoor sessions this year in the beautiful Washington parks. It's been a lot of fun capturing their images in such beautiful places. Here you can see some of my favorite photographs from the sessions. I'll be posting more soon. So keep watching.

There's still time to book a free Friday session . This Friday I'll be photographing families at Point Defiance Park. One of my favorites. The colors there are AMAZING. Let's just hope the weather holds out. I still have openings. So give me a call if you are interested in the free session...

Fall fun on the farm

Adorable Baby Wyatt has some of the biggest blues I've ever seen....

This is a sneak peek for the McNatt Family... I photographed them over the weekend at their old farm.... Lovely fall leaves littered the ground, and sheep Blaaahhhhing in the background.

Their children were a delight. Easy to capture and work with....

Enjoy the sneak peek....

Free Fall Fridays

I'll be giving free sessions on these 3 Fridays. If you've been thinking about having your portraits taken, but putting it off, this is a great opportunity to get it done, and save some money.

There is limited availability, so book your session today...

This is perfect for the Holidays as well...

Fall portraits make beautiful Christmas cards and gifts...

Garden Baby Boutique's Annual Fashion Show

Garden Baby Boutique invited me out to photograph their annual Fashion Show this year in down town Port Orchard. It was an absolute blast for the kids and grown ups alike. They had bubble man, whom put on quite a show. The kids LOVED him, a Diaper Derby and then a showing of the new fall lineof clothes.

If you didn't make it this year, be sure to make it next year. It was a lot of fun...

This is Garry a.k.a Bubble Man. He's wonderful. You can hire him for partys. You can find him at http://www.bubbleman.com/

He's great entertainment for birthday parties.

The Diaper Derby... I love how Dad's giving the cutie on the left the rundown in this picture. Sooooo cute....

The Diaper Derby winner. She looks very proud of herself if you ask me...

Some of the cute models showing off their new clothes....

By the way, if you didn't already know this, Courtney, the owner of Garden Baby Boutique, hand designs and sews many of the outfits in her shop. You can go into her store and pick out your favorite, and have it handmade to your liking. She is very talented. If you haven't been in her shop, it's definitly worth checking out. She also carries a lot of items from local vendors... Meaning when you purchase from her shop, your supporting your local artists... Don't you just love that... I do...
