Summer Lovin' - Family Photoshoot

A couple of weeks ago I met up with the adorable Erickson family in Bellevue for a fun summer shoot. Besides for loving their darling little boys blonde combover, the first thing I thought when I saw him was "this is the exact way my little boy will be dressed." The afternoon was quite eventful - we talked bargain shopping for kids clothing (I have a slight obsession), realized we know about five people in common, were yelled at by a park employee for 'trespassing' in a pasture, went for a dip in the stream and kept the little guy fascinated with a plastic duck we found on the trails. Perfect way to spend a hot afternoon.

* Playing Catch Up *

My poor photography blog has been a bit neglected lately so I figured it was time to catch up and add photos from shoots I've done over the past couple of months. I wish I had the extra time to post after each shoot, but there sometimes just aren't enough hours in the day. From each shoot, I come away with new ideas and get quite excited for each upcoming session. Stayed turned for more photos from the wedding in Ellensburg and then two more weddings this month in Bellevue and Boulder, CO.

Enjoy!

Twins!

After doing photography for a couple of years now, I finally had my first chance at a twins photoshoot. Never did I imagine how difficult and how much fun a shoot with twins would be. Difficult in the sense that it was near impossible to get a shot of both girls looking at the camera...at the same time...without one or the others hands in their mouths. I was over this obstacle real quick and enjoyed spending two hours following these darling girls through the park. As a 1st birthday gift, Allison purchased a photography session for her two adorable nieces, Ana & Elisa or in her words "the most adorable twins girls - ever." Can't wait to capture more of these beautiful girls at auntie Allison's wedding in July.

Sweet Baby { Girl }

My friends Katy and Tyler welcomed their first child two weeks ago - precious little Robyn. I had the honor of shooting her newborn photos at 7 days old and can say from just the couple of hours that I spent with her, she's absolutely perfect. Going into a newborn shoot, I have always hoped that I'll be able to capture photos of both the baby asleep and awake. After this shoot, my hopes have changed as Robyn was wide-awake the entire time and made my job quite simple. She was definitely ready for her first first official photoshoot.

Congratulations Katy and Tyler - Your baby girl is darling!
