Shawn and Ashley were due on July 8th, but little miss Ellie decided to make her grand entrance on the 4th of July! What a great birthday! Shawn & Ashley are also first time parents, but already so calm and relaxed - even after a 3 hour photo session! Thank you for inviting me into your home when Ellie was just 6 days new...such a sweet and tender time.
Poutiatine Family
If you ever find yourself working for a non-profit and in need of a volunteer, committee member, board president, speaker, (I could go on and on!) ...you will need to know this family! Mike, Sally, and their daughter, Hailey, are 3 of the most generous and giving people I know. In my role as Branch Manager for JDRF (2004-2012), I counted on people like the P family over and over again. They were always there for me and always willing to go the extra mile. Seriously good people to have on your side. They haven't had "family photos" taken in something like 10 years?!!? So, it was time! A perfect summer night, beautiful setting, and this awesome family adds up to a great session!
Gockley Family
This family knows how to have FUN! This session took place in their yard and they had all sorts of awesome ideas for photo props...things like tire swings, tree houses, pets, the bbq, a football, 22 year old MHS t-shirt, the backyard campfire, a hard helmet, pick axe...just to name a few! Rich and Jen are high school sweethearts and will be celebrating their 18th wedding anniversary later this month. They moved back to the Spokane area a couple years ago and I hope they never have to move again. Our friendship dates backs over 25 years (I met Rich in Junior High School!). Wonderful people. Awesome family.

Rock the Shot May Photo Challenge: Silhouette
This is my entry for the May photo challenge at Rock the Shot. The theme is Silhouette. This photo is from our trip last fall to San Diego - my husband holding our baby girl on our first night at the beach. We were so excited to be there! Our older girls were already swimming!

Max
Meet Max. We had so much fun just hanging out in his space...his playroom, family room, backyard and even the front yard! Max is turning 3 in August and his mom is already planning a Dr. Suess birthday party - check out that great blue wig (she found it on Etsy!). And P.S. I did not edit his eyes...they are really just THAT amazing!
