Little Starr
July 10, Portraits
Early Monday morning we head off to Coeur D'Alene for our annual family vacation with our good friends. We are more than ready to head out of town and live carefree for a week swimming, sunning, biking. In the evenings we'll be sipping wine and having deep conversations with old friends.

I had to post this sweet image from my session with the Starr family earlier today. Isn't she pretty? Her baby sister's name is Ella, I'm especially fond of that name :)

Enjoy this perfect July weekend!

Caitlin & Dan
June 10, Portraits
The morning of Caitlin and Dan's session, the skies finally cleared to bless us with some sun. We met them at their cute bungalow near Green Lake and were promptly greeted by their adorable pug, Monkey. Caitlin's beautiful mother ferried over from Vashon Island to join us, we loved getting to know her during our time together. We trekked our way through some great spots downtown and headed back to their home for some cute shots with Monkey.

We feel blessed to have had the opportunity to get to know and photograph Caitlin and Dan. They are putting together an amazing wedding at the peaceful Areus in Walla Walla. We wish we could be there to photograph it but we know they will be in good hands with Ali Walker on their big day.

Aren't they cute?
