14 – Longview Portrait photography

My youngest sister turned 14 back in August – and what did she ask for for her birthday present from me?  Pictures of course!   We had a little session out near my parents home this summer, and she looked adorable for it!

Judah and Becca – a “just because” session

They are just adorable!  I photographed Judah and Becca a little over six months ago when they said “I do”.   They are such a beautiful couple inside and out  and a joy to photograph!    I used the downtown Kalama area again and I just LOVE it.   The settings were perfect for the look I was going for with these and I am so happy with how they turned out!  The reason they decided to do this session was primarily for Christmas cards, but also “just because.”   “Just because” sessions are a great way for a couple to have some photos of themselves without the hype and stress of a wedding or the expectations of an engagement   – it’s a great way to just show two people, very much in love, and enjoying life.   I love it!  (My hubby and I are going to be having our own “just because” session in Seattle here in a few weeks and I can’t wait!  Be watching the blog for it….)

Thanks Judah and Becca!  You guys are awesome!

Meet the “N” family! – Longview family photographer

I met up with the “N” family last week for a family session out in Rose Valley.   Mrs “N” was my old neighbor from when I was a child.  We did the session out in the pasture that is in between her parents house and my parents old house.   I hadn’t been out there in years and couldn’t stop remembering all of the good times my siblings and I had growing up in some of these very spots that I was shooting in!  :-)

When Mrs. N first contacted me and said she had 15 month old twins, I got nervous inside – 15 months is a tricky age to photograph no matter how great the kids are, but two of them….wow! But I’m pleased to say that I was pleasantly surprised by these sweet little gals!  They were amazing the entire session and both of them gave me lots of adorable little smiles and giggles.  It was great!

A big thank you to the “N” family for having me as your photographer! I hope you enjoy your preview!

Little “L” at the lake!

I met up with Miss “L” this last Saturday at the Lake here in Longview.  The spring sunshine was finally showing itself and I was so excited to finally be shooting in sunshine!   “L” did amazing for her session, she was full of adorable natural little smiles and giggles the whole time and I had so much fun just playing with her!   (Yeah….my job is to play with kids and make them laugh…….jealous?)   ;-)

Thank you “L” and family just for being so great!  I hope you enjoy the preview and the rest will be finished soon!
