Summertime at the Ballard Locks

Well, summer has finally arrived in Seattle!  Yay!   And the Locks are one of my favorite summertime locations.  I just can't get enough of the trees!!  Just gorgeous!  And a beautiful day combined with a beautiful family is just icing on the cake!

Jenna!

Ah... Jenna!  I've been photographing this little girl since before she was born! I also had the privilege of photographing her birth!  One of her newborn pictures hangs on the wall in my studio.  Jenna and I go way back!  And even though she and her parents now live in Texas, I am lucky enough to get a little visit in whenever they come to Seattle on vacation.

We had a lovely shoot this morning at the Locks.  It was perfect light! And I couldn't have asked for better company! Little Miss Jenna was cute as ever, and just a pleasure to work with.

Here is a sneak peek from our morning together!

The Always Adorable Jamie!!

This cutie cute little man has been coming in to see me since he was just a tiny baby.  Now he's an adorable three year old!  I tell you, they just grow up so darn fast!!

Here is a little sneak peek from his birthday shoot at Seattle's fabulous Gasworks Park!

Pugs!!!

I'll be shooting a 60th birthday party in August for a lady who loves her pugs!!  Her son's, together with the amazing Katy Griffiths of VOWS: Wedding and Event Planning, came up with the awesome idea to use photographs of her beloved dogs as the table numbers for the event.  Brilliant!!!  So today, we had our Pug shoot.  And let me tell you... it was a blast!!!!  We got great photos of the dogs and their numbers, as well as some of the behind the scenes shenanigans.
