Meet the Wears! As much fun as it is to reconnect with people I knew in high school, it’s also pretty amazing to meet new people too!  Chloé and her family came out from Seattle to visit her folks here in Richland, where she grew up.  Turns out we had lots of similar interests in […]

You might recognize Misty from my very first blog ever!  I photographed her and her family back in January when they were expecting baby Everly.   Misty’s husband, Tony, and his brother, Drew are combining forces to start a home-building business here in the Tri-Cities, called Relentless Custom Homes.  Check them out if you are […]

When Darcey reached out from Tacoma, WA for photos with her extended family, I was shocked that she even found me!  I’ve been working hard to build a presence on Google, and was so happy I came up in her search!  Darcy and her sisters, and their families all came to visit their parents in […]

These are some more friends I have known forever and more recently connected with again!  Kitty and I have known each other since childhood!  We both grew up out in the country, out by Red Mountain, which at the time was pretty out there and isolated (not anymore!  West Richland has grown so much!).  We […]

We went out of town to visit family over the fourth of July weekend. We got to spend some quality time with my dad and step-mom in Anacortes, and also with my husband’s parents in Marysville.  We also got to see my husband’s sister and her family, who live nearby in Lake Stevens!  We hadn’t […]

Let me tell you the backstory here… Cherika is a long-time friend and fellow photographer.  We met because we are both students of Amy and Jordan’s Shooting and Editing course!  We’ve been swapping photos for years, and she and her family moved to Yakima last year, so I don’t get to see them as much […]

I’m so excited to share this family maternity session with you today!  Katherine scored my Black Friday deal last November and we scheduled a session for this spring.  Of course, she wasn’t pregnant when she booked this with me, so I had no idea she was expecting until she showed up! She was interested in […]

Wow, this was a humbling experience!  This was an extended family session that included FOUR generations!  My friend Meg bought a gift certificate from me last Christmas to give to her mom, Lori, so she could get pictures with all her kids and grandkids. They also chose to include Lori’s Father-in-Law.  And oh my goodness, […]

Ahhh this family!  I have known Eric since our cross country running days at Hanford High in Richland, Washington.  Although we weren’t super close friends, somehow we kept in touch enough over the years (Thanks, facebook!).  So when he was looking to move back to Richland, and get a teaching job, I told him about […]

Things I remember about the 4th grade at Sacajawea Elementary:  A research report about the Everglades, and the animals I made out of Sculpey for the presentation, a travel agency project in which I had to cold-call a real travel agent in Alabama to ask for some travel brochures about the state (and the anxiety […]
