A little one on the way...

My beautiful friend Jacqueline came to visit me to celebrate our 30th birthdays! This was her second trip to the Pacific Northwest and she came at the most beauitful time of the year. The leaves were gorgeous and for those of us born and bred in CA, the colors are delightful and unusual. I really wanted to take some maternity photos of her, but 1. her adorable daughter wasn't here and of course she needed to be in the photos kissing her momma's belly and 2. it RAINED the whole darn time!!!

The last day the sun made a small appearance just before heading up to Seattle, so I quickly snapped a few pics of this beautiful mommy-to-be (for the 2nd time!) I can't wait to meet this lil one at Christmas!

 

 

BOY! It's been a while...

It's been a while since I have posted any photos! Why? You ask....because I got knocked up! That crazy/amazing/wonderful experience truly occupied the last year of my life. I found out I was pregnant Thanksgiving weekend, 2011. I was so THANKFUL! Now I am the mommy of a beautiful baby boy named Brady!
Even though I have not posted any new photos, I sure have been busy taking them. Over the last year, I was able to take photos at my very first wedding locally in Olympia (see the Nate and Maddie post), I was a second shooter with my sister-in-law at a Tacoma wedding (pictures to come), I did some boudair photos for a close friend (her husband was very pleased with the results), and I have of course taken family photos, including those of my new baby boy!

First, let me brag! This post is dedicated to my precious baby boy! Here are just a few of my favorites from the first few days of his life!



We call this to "whooo" face! My lil birdie!
