If you know me well then you know me to be a HUGE UW Husky Football fan! After graduating from the UW and then working at the athletic department for 4 years after graduation, I have a special fondness for this time of the year. Last week I was up on campus and I was [...]
Today we celebrated Maggie’s 2nd Birthday! It’s hard to believe that she is already 2, time really does move that fast; as any parent will attest. Birthday’s of your child take on an entirely different meaning when you sit back and reflect upon all that has changed in your life and how happy you are [...]
I had the coolest session on Tuesday out on Harstene Island here in Olympia. I met with Ron who loves his dirt bike and his 4×4 truck; which made for some pretty awesome pictures! Unfortunately (or fortunately… I don’t know since these turned out so freaking cool!), it rained the entire evening. I was one [...]
I mentioned about a week ago that my equipment decided to take a swim in Long Lake here in Lacey. Luckily everything turned out just fine and the equipment still works perfectly (thanks to my wonderful husband and his attention to detail in fixing it!!). But what I failed to mention was the wonderful family [...]
Last Friday and Saturday I shot the wedding of Heather and Bill. They got married on the luckiest day of the year, 8.8.08, with a small family ceremony.

As I mentioned a long time ago, we planted our first vegetable this past spring. Jason has never been so happy; putting around the garden and making sure everything is growing properly. And boy is it ever taken off. We are drowning in 15 pound zucchini’s, snap peas, lettuce and tomatoes. The upcoming weeks ought [...]
Equipment failure sucks. And it REALL sucks watching your entire lighting set up get caught in a gust of wind and slowly fall into a lake!!
But I had the wonderful pleasure of seeing all my money practically drown to the bottom of Long Lake today while out doing a family session. As I was shooting [...]
Last Saturday I had the pleasure of shooting the wedding of Tina and Brian at a private home out on Cooper Point in Olympia. The day was fabulous with beautiful detailing, wonderfully happy families, and a lovely couple! The home and grounds overlooked the beautiful water and we had an amazing sunset to play with [...]
I’ve been stuck in bed now for pushing 2 weeks now. Most of the time too sick to care about anything else…. except these stupid books! I am officially hooked on the Twilight Series of books. Written specifically for 14-year old teenage girls, it’s pretty much the story of love blooming between an ordinary 17-year [...]
