Dear Friends at Home in Gig Harbor








I love these people! What joy it brings me to photograph friends dear to my heart! Laura has been by my side since we met . . . and that was way back in Kindergarten. We rode the bus together, and shared so much laughter. Our memories go way back, and I look forward to creating even more in our future friendship! Her handsome husband, Eric, made me laugh throughout this session. I think the whole family had fun, and that's why these images make you smile! We met at the barn on their family property - what a treasure for a photographer. With perfect weather, perfect location, and perfect clients . . . I couldn't go wrong! With my love - Heidi

Snow in Gig Harbor!


School's out early . . . there's snow in Gig Harbor! My boys were all giggles watching our puppy, Molly, frolic in her first snow. She's not sure whether to eat it, attack it, or dig it up - so much fun to watch her play! The boys ate some snow (not the yellow stuff), made a giant snow ball, and built a very cool snow cave. It's still falling . . . more fun yet to be had! - Heidi

Who wouldn't love to put a portrait like this on their Christmas card? Taking family holiday portraits is one of my favorite things to do. Thanks to this gorgeous family for a fun morning, capturing some great shots this season. Enjoy . . . and Merry Christmas! - Heidi

Sweetest of Siblings





I have had the pleasure of knowing and spending time with this family for a few years now. We especially enjoy our cold and wet fall days on the soccer sidelines together, cheering on our fabulous Tornados! This family has been wanting to capture some great images of the kids, and I'm so glad last weekend worked for them. As contest winners, they enjoyed a complimentary session - yay! I adore this family, and it was a pleasure to spend some time with these two dolls in our studio. - Heidi

3 Little Sisters . . . 1 Big Brother Tacoma mini photo sessions












Do these little loves adore their handsome big brother, or what? They were so sweet together, and such fun to photograph! These adorable lavendar dresses with dark brown sashes don't come in my size . . . but, I really want to twirl in one just like these three girls did! We captured all kinds of fun images: individuals, posed group shots, and tons of fun dancing shots! It's so much fun for me to have one of my preschool families come into the studio for a photo session. - Heidi

Preschool Pictures- Gig Harbor


We photographed 120 adorable children at this preschool, and every single image is something special indeed! Hearing all of the positive feedback from parents as they received their portraits today put big smiles on our faces. Just look at these grins . . . how could we go wrong? - Heidi & Erin

Murphy Family












This family, I love. Spending even just a little time with Shelley is so refreshing. I don't get to see her nearly enough; but, when I do, I'm instantly filled with her love and friendship. Her fantastic family is a mixture of beauty, humor, passion, and joy! They were great with the camera, and gave me lots of opportunity to capture fun images for their holiday greeting cards. This family of six brings me great joy, and I'm delighted to share that with you. Happy Thanksgiving! - Heidi
