With Spring time now in full bloom Seth and I are both reminded of how blessed we are to love the city we call home, love the individuals we journey with while having the opportunity to work with amazing and talented people.

I am excited to share this photo shoot with the world. Anyone who knows me personally knows that I LOVE my pooch; I have even been accused of spoiling him from time to time!!! So therefore, the individuals who take fantastic care of my crazy animal hold a special place in my heart.

I want to introduce you to Pet Sounds, a Seattle based dog-walking company. We love Taylor and David & were excited to help them celebrate their anniversary as a company.

Thanks for taking such good care of our Tinsly.

Our Journey towards embracing the flavors that the PNW has to offer. Check out Jenn’s blog for the story behind Fortunate Feast & her table top settings that will soon be adorning our blog pages as well.

Seth’s Blood Orange 75

1 1/2 oz Gin (we used our favorite local Gin by Captive Spirits)
1 oz blood orange simple syrup
1 1/2 oz blood orange juice
4 oz Chilled Prosecco (You have to try Joe’s Secco)
1 slice blood orange
Simple Syrup -
1 cup sugar + 1 cup water, in a small sauce pan bring mixture to slight simmer to dissolve sugar. Once sugar dissolves, remove pan from heat and place 6 slices of blood orange in to the mixture and let steep for 30 min. Fish out the orange slices and pour simple syrup into a squeeze bottle and store for up to 1 week.
 In a shaker half-filled with ice-cubes, combine the gin, simple syrup and blood orange juice. Shake well and pour into your glass of choice, top with Prosecco and garnish with orange slice.

We had the honor to photograph Chase and Maria while celebrating their engagement in Ballard this past summer.

In getting to know this couple on a more personal level we really wanted to be able to capture their individual personalities  while also tying in their fun dynamic as a couple.

We thought Discovery Park & Ballard would be a perfect backdrop for this fun and engaging couple. In our opinion the perfect place to end a great photo session is over Sushi, something that the two of them love to do together.

 Here is a little flavor of this Seattle couple.

A little Curious George, with some London love in Seattle fall colors

October 11, 2012
It seems that summer had officially ended in Seattle, it is time for me to trade in my flip flops for my rain boots. As the season begins to change and the leaves begin turning colors, here is a little reminiscing of summer time family fun. 

This shoot made me really happy, It made me smile through the whole process from shooting to editing.  This shoot was amazingly whimsical.  Full of merry go rounds and sunshine, sibling love and those precious moments of a little girls first steps.

enjoy

This specific family is near and dear to my heart.  Juliet gave me the honor to photograph the beauty of maternity and the precious newborn moments a few months later.  Now as Juliet and Justin transition away from Washington to Davis CA, I  was able to capture their last week in Seattle.

love you guys!! Seattle misses you!
