We love our friends, the MacDonalds. Evan and Travis have known each other for more than 20 years, and have remained very close throughout all that time. Evan and Lindsay are both very talented individuals. In fact, Evan created our branding and designed our website. It is wonderful to see Evan and Lindsay’s family grow, and see the growth of the cute personalities of their little girls, Nina and Elena.

The Hanks Family : Bellevue
We were so excited when Ken and Brianna contacted us for a portrait session. We photographed their wedding nearly two years ago, and now they have a handsome little boy! It’s such a joy to be in this business and watch families grow. The Baptism gown baby X is wearing came over from Ireland over one hundred years ago, and every male on Ken’s side of the family has worn it. Amazing! I love traditions like that.













The Knowles Family : Tacoma, WA
We photographed Jeff and Vanessa’s wedding last year, so when they asked us to photograph their family, it was like a family reunion. We love them and their sweet daughters. Watching them interact with their girls was a treat, especially as we prepare to have a little girl of our own!

Max : Tacoma
We were all excited for Travis’ brother, Cory, and his wife, Danielle to have their first child. Danielle was beautiful as a pregnant woman, and is now a beautiful mother.


Travis and I were so happy to hear of Max’s arrival on Thursday. He is a perfect baby, and we love him so much.









Shannon, Derek & the Twins : Salt Lake City
While we were in Utah over Christmas, we had the opportunity to meet up with Shannon, Derek and their two beautiful girls, Evelyn and Emery, for a portrait session. Shannon and I met in a art school several years back, and it seemed to us that we were always friends. I will never forget the joyous news of her expecting a baby, because it was at our wedding reception! Little did we know then that she would have twins! Shannon is a photographer, a sweet mother and an amazing writer. Her family is beautiful.



















The Broadbent Family : Tacoma
We met the Broadbent family at Trevor and Sydney’s wedding early last year and were excited to meet up with them again for some quick family portraits over the Thanksgiving weekend.









The Flanigan Family : Tacoma
What can we say about the Flanigans? Sean oozes talent, Lidia is one of my favorite people on the planet, and Finn is a sweetheart. We love this family and were honored to photograph them on a recent rainy afternoon, especially since we’ve been fortunate to have been photographed by Sean twice in the last year.





















The Hawks Family : Lake Steilacoom
Jessica and David were in town from Arizona a little bit ago visiting family, and we had the opportunity to photograph them. They are a sweet couple with the cutest little boy, Emmett! We had so much fun playing on Jessica’s parents’ property right on Lake Steilacoom.
















The Shodas : Tacoma
Today, we hung out with Jeramie, Bethany and Evey. We showed them around Tacoma, ate good food, laughed and played at the park. I couldn’t pass up the chance to take a few frames of them. They’re a beautiful little family and we’re stoked to have new friends!
