Photo of the Month - October 2014

This is Finn's latest preferred method of drinking water.  He drives me bonkers every single morning meowing, trying to get my attention.  And then I have to wait right there with him until he is finished drinking, so I don't forget to turn off the water!

Cat's can be creatures of routine or random and persnickety.  They can and do change one, two or all their routines for months at a time leaving us baffled.

Yes, this boy is spoiled!  (He has his own sink; we don't share.)   One nice thing is that if I can tolerate the incessant meowing most mornings, once he settles in for his nap, I know peace is just around the corner :)

Fall session | Bellevue Family Photographer

A few more images from this fall session.  Letting people just be who they are and interact with one another often presents story telling images.  I love this aspect of lifestyle photography.  Personalities come out, and the authentic character shines through.  These kind of images along with a few posed photos create a balance that my clients enjoy.

Photo of the Month - March 2013

Spring is here!  All the colors are coming into bloom, nature brings us the cutest babies, like this family of goslings.  It's a great time of year to think about a family portrait session or your senior pictures.

If you are interested in booking a session, please contact me here.  Let's create some artwork for your home and have fun during the process.

Bellevue Portrait Photographer | Miss M. Session Favorites

Four locations and a pretty young lady up for anything!  We wanted to take in some of the gorgeous fall colors, a water backdrop and even a little retail and vintage fun.  She likes Justin Bieber (Shhhh...so do I!) We talk about our favorite colors, YouTube videos, clothes, school and sports. I really enjoyed our afternoon together talking and laughing.  I shared a hair trick from my old hairdressing days (eons ago,) which we practiced no less than thirty times and by the end of our session, she became a hair trick pro too!

Bellevue Lifestyle Photographer | Introducing a New Service!

Introducing a new way to see your wall displays before you place your order! 

No more guessing, or trying to visualize what your images will look like on your walls.  I provide you with image choices from your session that you'll want to display in different parts of your home and they are all able to be previewed to scale.  All gallery wraps and standout wall groupings come "ready to hang" when delivered. 

Together we can choose a wall display that best suits your home or office.  I am pleased to provide this new service at no additional charge with each session.

Bellevue Lifestyle Photographer | How cute are these kids?

It was so cute to see all these little sailboats lined up in a row.  

This was taken during their sailing lessons on a beautiful Bellevue afternoon.

Bellevue Photographer | Wildlife tales...

June was a big month for wildlife in my yard.  I chose not to post the hawk swooping down right in front of me last Friday taking the baby bunny that brought me so much joy.  As with every scene in nature there's the pleasant and unpleasant, they all have their young to feed.  It was sad to see, but I'm pleased to share the other side of the circle of life below.

I noticed this little guy looking rather lost, looking left and then right with that pouty little beak and his downy feathers.  Then suddenly mom swooped in to feed him.  He couldn't fly, he would just try to follow her and keep up, then he'd fall behind again and she'd come back and redirect him. This is the sweet side of wildlife that I enjoy capturing!

Bellevue Lifestyle Photographer | Beautiful rim light

Light is the core of photography, but beautiful light is what photographer's wish for every session.  I love these Lifestyle Portrait sessions!  You're on track shooting and you turn away for a moment to change a lens only to look up see this gorgeous rim lighting!  That is what happened here.  I quickly changed my camera settings and seized the moment to capture beautiful Miss M.

Bellevue Photographer | June 2012 - Photo of the Month

Summertime...

Clients will sometimes ask, "What is lifestyle portraiture?"  A Lifestyle session is a family, or individuals interacting casually with one another capturing candid moments and expressions.  The image above illustrates Lifestyle Portraiture, just living life...
