I’ve always considered myself more of a people-centered photographer, but I’m also happy making your pet the star of the session, as was this case with this sweet elderly pup, Bear. Bear has been with Beverly and Juan for his entire life, and they wanted to beautifully capture some of his final days with them […]

I’ve photographed this family before (wait, has it really been FOUR years?!), and they’re one of those families that becomes more than just a client, they’re my friends too, and I had the best time getting to update their family photos this spring!   We went to the Demonstration Gardens by the Kennewick Library, which is […]

My client last weekend asked me how long I’ve been a photographer.  This should be an easy question and I should have that number always in my head, but I drew a blank.  I had to think real hard, and in the end I’m pretty sure I said the wrong answer!  But I’m pretty sure […]

A family photo session at my favorite bird watching spot, with binoculars for props!  Say no more!  This was so fun! Samantha, Dave, and Luna came out for some family photos in November and mentioned that it would mean a lot to them to document their family this year in one of their favorite spots […]

Those fall colors, this year, am I right?? The fall colors this year seemed to last longer than in years past, and it was so beautiful while it lasted!  I guess we got lucky this year with cool but not cold mornings and not a ton of wind and rain and it sure made the […]

The Heaton family came to see me for fall family photos at the Chamna Natural Preserve this year.  Margo wanted to capture the fall vibes with her husband Howard and cute little girls.  Chamna is a popular choice in the fall, and for good reasons!  Look at all the fall colors! We also needed just […]

Meet the Fosters!  Chelsi told me she usually takes her own family’s photos, but that this year, she wanted to let someone else (me!) have the job, so she could enjoy just being in the photos for once, and I love this for her! This family was looking for someplace green, so we chose Chiawana […]

Well this was something different (and BEAUTIFUL!)! My friends Misty and Tony, who I’ve photographed many times, and who hosted mini sessions at their white barn last fall came up with a crazy idea, and it turned out SO beautiful! Misty and Tony live on acreage along the Yakima River in West Richland.  Their river […]

My third time capturing the wonderful Steward Family! Peggy contacted me about squeezing in a session while all her kids were home, and it made me remember that the first time I photographed them all her kids lived at home, and since then they’ve grown up a lot, and they’ll even be gaining a daughter-in-law […]

Another extended family session for my summer! These are always so fun!  Whenever we get a big group of grandkids together there’s sure to be exciting moments!  Kids do kid things, and I love working with them.  Parents– I hope you never feel pressure from me to make your kids sit and behave a certain […]
