Happy Spring!  I’m happy to be back at it this spring!  Such beautiful weather we have been having and EVERYTHING is blooming!   Heather chose the Demonstration Gardens at the Mid-Columbia Library in Kennewick for a spring family session.  It was looking so beautiful this evening!  Turns out though, that it was prom night somewhere nearby, […]

So you just downloaded your gallery full of beautiful images of sweet moments captured with your family.  You’re feeling the joy of seeing yourself and your family through my lens, and you know you want to get some photos printed to hang in your home, or to share with family.   But where’s the best place […]

My last family of 2022, and it was so fun! Megan and her family have been in front of my camera four times now (once with her side, and three times with her husband, Randy’s family), but I hadn’t seen them since early 2020!   Her brother-in-law, Richard, and his wife Kate, and their kids […]

Meet Ethan, Chiawana High School class of 2023! It’s not uncommon for the people I meet to have never done professional photographs before, let alone be the one and only subject of ALL the photos.  I get how terrifying, and uncomfortable that can feel!  At the beginning of Ethan’s session, I could tell he was […]

Meet the Crabtree Family!  Another fun fall family!  It’s been a fun October meeting new people this year, and we had great weather in Richland in October!  The Chamna Preserve is such a popular spot in the fall, and for good reason!  It’s got beautiful fall colors, a variety of trees and also sagebrush, interesting […]

Meet Anthony–Liberty Christian senior, class of 2023! You guys, we almost postponed this session.  It was raining unexpectedly earlier in the afternoon, and looking really iffy, but in the end, the sun came out, and we had the most gorgeous evening at Chamna!  Staying flexible for fall sessions is definitely a must, but sometimes when […]

You might remember this family from a spring session at the demonstration gardens earlier this year…You guys, anytime a client reaches out to me I do a happy dance, but to have clients that return for photos, and then come back again, several times a year…It’s so humbling and just the biggest compliment! This time, […]

You all know how warm it has been so far this fall…I’ve been calling it October Summer!  Highs in the 80’s lots of sun, no wind–I’ve been LOVING it!  However, it didn’t have much of an effect on the the leaves around here.  Fall colors had been slow to get going this season.  So when […]

This is my friend Sara!  I’ve known Sara since kindergarten at Sacajawea Elementary, and she was one of my closest friends growing up!  So many good stories here involving beanie babies…HAHA!  Sara and Kyle are new parents to Everleigh, who was a micropreemie at birth, so Sara and Kyle became parents a bit earlier than […]

Samantha reached out last spring about senior portraits for her son, Hayden.  When she mentioned that he’s in the Firefighting program at Tri-Tech, and would love to incorporate his gear, and/or a fire station, I got excited.  This sounded epic! I had an idea about which fire station would have the best light, so I […]
