Pride Cake Smash!

Pride Cake Smash!

With all the ugliness surrounding the Supreme Court's decision in the cake baker case I decided I wanted to do something positive to counter it. So I cooked up a plan with some friends and enlisted the magic baking hands of South Fork Cake Co who made the most amazing cake I think I've ever seen. My good friends Alex & Chad then proceeded to smash it into each others faces in the most adorable way.

When Scott contacted me saying he needed some headshots for a work project, I was happy to help. We arranged to meet at his apartment and he suggested heading up the roof because it had a good view. He understated it a bit as his apartment roof looks out over Lake Union with a view of downtown Seattle to the left, it has to be one of the best views of Seattle I have ever seen! 

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! - Seattle Portrait Photography

For the first time in a good few years, it snowed in Seattle this past week. Enough for it to actually lie on the ground I mean. But of course by the next day it was gone, gone, gone. Which made going up to Vancouver to shoot a family portrait session for Jasmine and her family all the better because they had a TON of snow!

The best part was watching her pups Zephyr and Woody run around in it, poor Woody was barely bigger than the snow was deep so it was a lot of effort for him to charge around and keep up with Zephyr. In between their mad dashes we were able to get some cute images and once everyone confirmed that they couldn't feel their fingers any longer we headed back inside for some hot cocoa.

A milestone shoot with Michelle - Seattle Portrait Photography

Michelle contacted me last month to schedule a portrait shoot for a very special reason. She wanted to mark five years since she kicked cancer's ass! How great is that? She even had a specific location in mind, the beach that her family had property close to where she would summer growing up. How perfect is that? The weather was even quintessentially Pacific Northwest, drizzly and windy! But Michelle loved it and we got some great, raw shots which was exactly what she wanted.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas... - Seattle Portrait Photography

Anyone who knows me knows that Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year by a mile. Come November 1st I’m blasting the Christmas tunes and guzzling eggnog latte’s. So when I realized I had friends who had babies that could be dressed up in adorable Santa outfits, I messaged them right away. I should’ve known better because of course Angela already had their Christmas outfits purchased and was dying for photo’s of them in them! So to that end I had Jesse, Angela and their adorable twins Ruby and Leo into the studio yesterday for some photo’s.
