Zach - Senior Portraits - Pioneer Square / Waterfront

January 10, 2019

Eeeek, I am the worst at blogging my sessions!

I photographed Zach in the fall on a Seahawks game day in Pioneer Square and it was SUPER busy. We somehow managed to make it look not so busy with moving and angling around the crowds :) We also found this cool pop-up art piece that was a giant mirrored object that has since vanished.

He is such an intelligent and nice young man. He’s taking a ton of advanced/AP classes and working part time while still in high school! With his work ethic and good attitude, he’s going to go far.

Megan - Senior Portraits - UW Arboretum Gardens

September 10, 2018

Shorecrest Highschool senior Megan is killing it! She’s such a strong, hardworking, beautiful, young lady. She’s in AP classes, is on the volleyball team, does beach volleyball competitions, loves being outdoors, traveling and hiking too.

I had a lovely time spending the evening getting ready and exploring the UW Arboretum Gardens with her & her sweet momma Chrissy. We got a little bit lost trying to find certain areas of the park, but in the end, everything worked out perfectly and we had the park pretty much to ourselves!

I love shooting on the historic bridge/walkway area of the park. The colors looked awesome with the earthy skirt and top she chose. The lily pond area is so pretty and the purple flowered bush we found matched Megan’s Free People dress PERFECTLY! She has such beautiful blue eyes, the purple and blue combo looked so amazing.

Thank you so much for being such a great mom & daughter team and helping me create such gorgeous photos Megan & Chrissy!

Gabby - Senior Portraits - King St. Station / Pioneer Square

April 2, 2018

Had a wonderful time getting to hang out with my senior Gabby. It was such a crisp, beautiful end of winter / early Spring day to capture her senior portraits. We went with a glam meets chill city vibe for her shoot because that's exactly who Gabby is. A girl who loves fashion & dressing up, but also loves a relaxed, chill time with friends and cozy clothing. Gabby is thinking of doing something with fashion in College (potentially in Cali). Gabby is friends with my past senior Rosa. They both are finishing their senior year at Seattle Preparatory School.

While she was getting her makeup & hair done, I kept thinking "OMG she looks like a baby Britney Spears!"... AMIRITE? Gabby looked stunning and so freakin' adorable in her outfit choices I helped her pick. She got two pairs of new shoes for the sessions which thankfully turned out perfect and fit great. I love that she accessorized with her favorite earrings (hoops) and some fun geometric rhinestone ones for the second look.

We headed to King Street Station with its gorgeous white walls, high ceilings, ornate crown molding, pretty light fixtures and lovely marble tiles. After we wandered over to one of my go-to coffee shops for a modern look to my sessions, the Cherry Street Public House. Absolutely love the interiors and light in there! After a little coffee pick me up, we finished off her session we some VERY Seattle shots of her loungin' in her boss lady look.

Cheers to you Gabby & your bright future, girly!
