Urban family

I am adding a new option for family photos sessions in 2009. The Urban Family session. Everything will be in color and the shoots will take place in fun urban locations. A very different look and feel than the classic black and white sessions I have previously offered families.

This great family was very excited to be given the option for an Urban Family session. How fun do they look! I was so thrilled at how easy they all were to photograph- what a wonderful family! Lucky they were so great because we lost light quickly on this very foggy afternoon!

Italy in November

I'm back!

Italy was amazing- words can't even describe what a wonderful time I had. My fabulous husband stayed home with our kids so I could take this once in a lifetime trip with my mom and dad.

We did a Rick Steves tour of Venice, Florence and Rome. I wouldn't go any other way. It was SO easy!

"We're going to the Vatican today. Here's your metro ticket. Follow me. Meet your extremely knowledgeable local Roman guide to tour you through. We're done with the Vatican- the rest of the day is yours. Here are some great restaurants near by- these are my favorites. The best gelato is here. What do you want to do the rest of the day? Give me your map and I'll highlight a route for you"

Seriously- what could be easier!

And this is Ben- our guide who planned every last detail of or trip and stayed with us from city to city. What a patient guy he was with all of our crazy questions!



I also included a fun slideshow from the entire trip- Enjoy!

Italy here I come!!!!

Yep- you heard right! I'm off to Italy today!

Many wonderful things fell into place to allow me to take this once in a life time trip to Italy with my mom and dad.

Venice. Florence. Rome.

I'll be back right before Thanksgiving. ! can't wait to share my pictures with everyone!!!

Audrey- Bellarmine Model

Audrey- don't you just love your images with this song? We had so much fun the day of your session. It still makes me smile thinking about the rolling suitcase your mom brought down to the beach! I wish I had gotten a picture of her with it....

Gig Harbor senior Kelsey

Kelsey- I hope you enjoy this video! It is so fun to see all of your fantastic images put to music like this. You were such a trooper in the water. Your trash the dress portraits are perfect!
