I love to read other peoples’ blogs and I aspire to be a great blogger myself someday. Writing is something I struggle with so when Amy Guild told me to do a 100 blog challenge with her I thought she was crazy. After giving it some thought I’ve decided to give it my best effort. […]

Another wonderful winter shoot! We started off in downtown Yakima and ended up at the Cascade Gardens. It was a pretty nice day downtown, blue skies, sun, not too cold…. but it was the complete opposite when we got to the Cascade Gardens. There was a thick blanket of fog and about a foot of […]

Yesterday Amy Guild, Kara Bracchi & I set out to take pictures of winterly things. It was an interesting task because unfortunately all the snow had melted so things just didn’t look the same without all the white fluff. We were wandering around downtown Yakima and came across the Garden Girl. This has always been […]

The bride, Brianne, actually wore jeans and flip flops under her dress the whole day! The wedding took place at the Fontaine Estates […]

Photographer: “Hey, lets go over by that tree and take some pictures, it looks cool”. Bride: ” Oh, can we climb in it”? Luke and Samantha were so much fun! They had a ton of ideas and were willing to do all kinds of crazy stuff, including climbing a tree. They are both free spirits […]
