AnnElise | Seniors 2015

AnnElise is my first 2015 senior. Having been friends since 2004, we had an absolute blast at Burfoot Park!

Gabby & Rhain | Married May 2014

I've known Gabby since I was nine years old, so when she asked me to photograph her wedding, it was quite the shock! I couldn't have asked for a better first wedding experience – being given the chance to capture one of the most important days of her life. So happy for this wonderful couple!

Seniors | BWU

A little late in the year for senior photos, and a little (or a lot) late for posting it, but I took a second set of senior portraits downtown for this beautiful young lady!

Brittany brought along one of her best friends and the three of us had a blast walking around taking photos.

Engagement | Brenda & Reilly

The first engagement photo shoot I had ever done was with my cousin Brenda and her fiance. Taking the photos was definitely way different than what I had ever done before – but I learned a lot and we had a great time and got some great photos!
Although they are just now getting married, Brenda and Reilly have been together for as long as I can remember. It makes me so happy to see them as incredibly happy as they are now that they have decided to make it official. I couldn't be more excited for more engagement shoots with happy couples in the future!

Winter Winds | The Deer Kids

I'm excited and happy to say that my first photoshoot with a family was successful!
Little AJ in his adorable mustache sweater was beyond photogenec, and I was amazed at how much everyone in this family has grown – physically but also as a person – since the last time I'd spent time with them.
Julie had the idea to use Christmas lights and wrap herself and her brother and sister in the lights, so I got out the extension cords and brought out the Christmas lights in the middle of downtown Olympia! We had a blast and got some amazing photographs for their mom's present.
I am also happy to say that the finished product (Julie and her siblings printed some of the photos and framed them) made Misty cry. I love you guys! Thank you for asking me to be a part of your wonderful gift to your mom this season.

Winter Winds | BFF Sunday

Photoshoot/coffee date in downtown Olympia with my best friend! It was incredibly cold, but the weather was absolutely perfect for photos and coffee and a walk around the lake.

Seniors | Emma Moore

Meet Emma Moore, Norwegian exchange student at Capital High School. She's kind, beautiful, down to earth, gentle, talented, and many other wonderful things! It was a pleasure working with her and her wonderful host mother who came along. Her smile is absolutely stunning, even in the freezing fall weather!
