Carter | One Year!

I have been following Carter’s first year of life through his mama's Instagram posts and finally had the chance to meet him at his first birthday session! I met Carter’s mom, Trish, when my daughter, Hannah, entered the 2nd grade. And even though Trish is married now, I will probably always affectionately think of her as “Miss Cudney”. This session took place in January during a 2-week stretch of FROST that covered pretty much all of Spokane and I just love the look in the final images.

Happy 1st birthday sweet boy!

My very first session of 2014 – thank you Kerr Family! This was an extended family shoot and the photos are a gift for Grandpa’s 90th Birthday in March. What a great gift! Lots of fun photo groupings with all the family members – cousins only, grandkids + grandparents, ladies only (I think they are a bit outnumbered!), men only, and more. Makes me want to do this with my own family!! It was cold & windy for this early January session – thank goodness for North Face + hand warmers!

Fresh snow just one hour before a scheduled session at a tree farm? Yes, please! Ryan & Andrya live on Bainbridge Island, but came home to Deer Park over the holidays, and we met for photographs on their family farm. The timing of the snow was perfect - everything turned fresh and white! Miss Audrey (age 2 1/2) was wearing the cutest and tiniest pair of Hunter boots I have ever seen...just adorable. Andrya is in the process of starting her own Interior Design business - her business is just getting started and you can find her here (just a splash page for now - but coming soon!). Thanks Cooper family!
