Reflections | November 2015

The triplets (deer) are still coming around.  I saw them this morning and it's so sweet how two of the three are always together while the slightly bigger one always close by foraging.  

I've taken advantage of the beauty that comes with the freezing temperatures we've had the past week and I photographed some of the leaves and mushrooms from my yard.  The frozen leaves look like they are coated with rock salt and some even show the tiny formations of ice crystals resembling snow flakes.

Reflections | October 2015

October just about wraps up senior portraits, so I didn't have much time for personal work this month. Here is a gorgeous scene that represents fall color at it's finest in the Pacific Northwest.

Fall Color has finally arrived on the property!

Fall color has finally arrived on the property!  It's the perfect time to consider a family photo session for your holiday cards.

Photo of the Month - November 2013

Another edit from the a beauty portraiture session I did a while back.  I'll be choosing a favorite image from a past family or beauty session to edit in post production, the one I see in my mind at the time I am photographing.

Location scouting for Fall sessions | Bellevue Portrait Photographer

I've been location scouting this week for upcoming Fall sessions.  These photo sessions are magical, especially for children.  After I've captured a few posed family images, the kids play, toss the leaves, roll around and just have fun while I take several images, many in succession which tell a story and make beautiful canvas wall displays in your home.

Many families choose their holiday photos from their fall sessions, or snow sessions from the previous year.  If you are interested in booking a fall session before the leaves are gone, please contact me here.

Winter | Northwest Nature Photography

Getting outside of the studio and photographing nature is one of my favorite things to do.  This past weekend, I went out with a couple friends and photographed the things I pass by every day and wouldn't give a second thought about, until you see the frost on them.  Suddenly they become these gorgeous bits of nature.

The moss that clings and hangs from trees like dark creatures accompanying you as you walk deeper into a forest, or the river that has iced over the branches and trees in it's path.  And of course the light...  Photographers live for the light, follow the light and create around the light.  This was a fun (and cold) outing and one I look forward to doing again soon!
