Chewie- Gig Harbor Dog Photographer

This is Chewie. He was found, abandoned, at a truck stop in New Mexico 12 years ago at Christmas. We're not sure what kind of life Chewie had before he was adopted by the Norton's but he has had a wonderful life filled with walks on the beach and squirrel chasing since then.

Just over a year ago Chewie was diagnosed with cancer. His parents decided to fight it and he has been undergoing chemotherapy. He has his up and down days but it looks like he is having a successful treatment.

As you can see, Chewie only has eyes for his mama!

What a sweet boy.

Haley- Tacoma Glass Museum Senior Pictures

The Glass Museum in Tacoma is one of the most fabulous places to take senior pictures. I was SO happy Haley chose this location! The architecture, fountains, glass sculptures and boats on the nearby water way make for such a beautiful backdrop for amazing senior pictures.

I have known Haley since she was 6 years old. Our families were in a small group Bible study for years when she was younger. I remember how she and the other kids would really give the babysitters a run for their money! I was so honored that they chose me to do Haley's senior pictures. I know there are many other photographers they could have chosen so I feel very privileged to be included in Haley's special year. Thank you Karen, Mike and Haley!

Family Christmas Photos {Holiday Card Mini-Session Special}

It's that time of year again! So fun to spend time with this dear family, and capture some Christmas images for them. Sarah and I have both had the pleasure of serving as this little sweetheart's preschool teacher. Her sweet smile says it all . . . she's just that precious! Great family, great fun, great keepsake photos. ~ Heidi

Tumwater Senior Pictures

What an honor it was for me to photograph Brianna's senior pictures! This cheerleader and gymnast drove all the way from Tumwater to have her pictures taken by BerryLane Photography. One her her long time friends from gymnastics was one of my models last year. They saw Hayley's images and fell in love with BerryLane- wow!

We never quite knew what the weather was going to bring- but we made with out a drop from the sky. It was so fun to see Brianna's cheerleader uniform- I've never photographed one from Tumwater before! It was fun to show off the beautiful garden's at Pt Defiance.

Gig Harbor Beach Senior

It was a cold, windy and rainy day in Gig Harbor for Becca's senior pictures. As we drove from the salon in Tacoma to Becca's location I was already looking at my schedule for another open time we could post-pone to.

But then a miracle happened! It sprinkled for about 5 minutes while we rushed to get some yearbook pictures taken. Then the nasty clouds moved out and the regular gray ones moved in. We were free from the rain!!!!

There was a glorious wind that we freely embraced to capture some truly unique NW images. Becca- I can't wait for you to see the rest!

Grandma's Birthday Gift

I can't think of a better gift for Grandma . . .

these two very-cool families got together to create an image of the grandchildren as Grandma's surprise birthday gift. Everything from their wardrobe to location to timing was really thought-out, and the end result was exactly what they had hoped for: a joyful grandma!

I sure enjoyed working with these families.  ~ Heidi

Family Fun in the Summer Sun

Finding time to look back over some fantastic family sessions this summer . . .
Here's a peek at a family of five, with three joyful little boys at the beach. They were as sweet as can be, and I was so happy to capture these "forever memories" for them.

Our mini-session are a great way to create your own family wall collage or canvas portrait. As the holidays are approaching, photographs are also a perfect idea for gift giving. Our Christmas card special is running now . . . call Sarah to schedule your appointment: 253-985-5658.
