I picked up my first camera in the summer of 2007 with some birthday money. I shot as a hobby for years, landscapes was my jam. I steadily invested in gear until in 2014 I bought my first portrait lens and since then I've been hooked.

Headshots with a view - Seattle Portrait Photography
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!

The stark beauty of Winter
I don't often post landscapes here (because I'm advertising my services as a wedding and portrait photographer) but I actually love to go out and shoot landscapes. There's nothing more peaceful than finding a spot, seeing it's beauty and then capturing it to preserve it forever.
Recently I went up to Vancouver, B.C. for a family photoshoot and we decided to make a weekend of it so on the Saturday we went to Lynn Valley Suspension Bridge. It's a place I heard about when I was living in Vancouver but I never managed to make it out there so now seemed as good a time as any to explore!
It started snowing just as we were about to cross the border into Canada and it had clearly been doing so for a few days in Vancouver so the bridge itself was very slippery and I opted to just go halfway across and take some shots before heading back, it was a long way down if I slipped!
But I managed to get some good shots and it's definitely a place I want to go back and visit again when the weather is a bit more hospitable.
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.
Christmas with the Kubiks - Seattle Family Photography
A few weekends ago I had the lovely Kubiks in my studio for a Christmas mini session. Christina, Joseph and their adorable little boy Theo came all dressed in red to celebrate the best season!
