Thompson Family || Washington Family Photographer

This summer we have had a lot of our family visit us here in Washington. It has been WONDERFUL!! Not long ago my cousin and his cute family stop by and stayed with us for a week, they were making their way up to an island in Alaska to serve with the Coast Guard and we are lucky enough to be along their route. We had so much fun exploring Seattle and Jarom LOVED having a little friend to play with (even though he is much older than Jarom). They were so cute together, laughing, playing, holding hands and just plain old being cute together! 

We love that they came to visit us and that they wanted family pictures while they were here! It all worked out so well! We look forward to them coming back soon!! They are going to love their time in Alaska though and we wish them all the best on their new adventure! 

Valedictorian || Portrait Photographer

This smarty pants has graduated and is getting ready to make her way towards Princeton! Sophia is the valedictorian of her class and graduated from Foster High! The little bit of time I got to spend with Sophia was worth it. She has such a kind heart!! You can tell that her family is SO proud of all of her accomplishments!!! I am grateful to have met her and wish her all the luck in the world as she makes her way to Princeton! 

Palak & Roshni || Maternity Photographer

This past Friday my college roommate came to visit and we decided to visit the tulip festival while she was here. While we were enjoying the beautiful flowers we had the wonderful opportunity to meet this adorable couple, Palak and Roshni. They are going to be parents for the first time and I for one am SO excited for them!!! :)

This photo shoot was a random beautiful thing! As my friend, son and I were walking around enjoying all of the tulips we found this beautiful spot that would be perfect to take some pictures, but we weren't the only ones who had this idea there was a cute couple taking pictures, well the husband was taking pictures of his newly pregnant wife, it was SO SWEET! So we decided to step to the side and wait until they were done so we could take some photos of our own ... yeah we were those people.

Anyway while we were waiting I asked if they wanted me to take a couple photos for them, tourist style. Palak agreed and handed me his camera they were so grateful. I took a couple for them on his camera but as I was taking them I kept thinking "why don't you just take some for them on your camera!? That way they can have some photos that are not just a quick snap shot" So I asked them if it would be okay and to my surprise they agreed! They were SO sweet to let me move them around and capture their beauty! They were literally glowing it was beautiful!:) 

I am so grateful to have met both Palak and Roshni and that they let me capture these beautiful photos for them. Congratulations again you both will be great parents!!!

OH and P.S. I'm so sorry I accidentally stole your hair ties! We tried finding you once we realized we still had them but we couldn't find you after . :( All for the photo right? :) I guess all of my future clients should know that I might be a hair tie thief ... haha sorry :/
