Sauer Family

I walked into the Sauer home and instantly fell in love with baby Jack (3 mos) and that FULL head of hair! Moments later, Riley (5 years old), was showing off her adorable animal themed room and I knew we were off to a great start! Let me know if you ever find yourself wanting zebra stripes on your ceiling...I will hook you up with Riley's dad! He's a "professional" in my book!

I love the documentary feel of the session - sweet little moments in time in such a sacred place, home sweet home. 

Thank you Sauer family for sharing your home with me.

Baby Garnet

A Newborn Home Session in Spokane, WA

Nicole & Lyle welcomed sweet baby Garnet in January. This family loves the outdoors so I think Garnet has many hiking, biking, and skiing adventures in her future. I'm willing to bet her two big brothers will show her the ropes...and she will be working hard to keep up with them! Congratulations Stagg family!

See Nicole's maternity session here. 

Emily | Class of 2016

Emily can’t remember a time when soccer wasn’t a part of her life! And I think the only time she isn't playing is when she is under doctor's orders after surgery (she's already had to endure 3 knee surgeries!). Her favorite part about high school is playing sports and supporting her classmates in their sporting events. Emily has the most beautiful teal eyes and I loved that she was able to show me a little of her serious side and her playful side during her session. This Mt. Spokane senior is hoping to attend Boise State University after she graduates. Good luck Emily!

Fun fact...my daughter had Emily's mom as her science teacher at Mountainside Middle School and loved her! Small world! 

Green Family

Wintery Home Session in Spokane, WA

Spokane was pretty magical during the holiday's this year! A fresh dusting of snow almost every day of Christmas week created the most beautiful setting for this extended family session on December 26! The Green kids + spouses were all home together for the holidays and gave this session to their parents as a Christmas gift. I couldn't of asked for a more perfect location to shoot my very last session for 2015!

Thank you for inviting me to your gorgeous home! 

Miller Family

A Greenbluff Christmas Tree Farm Family Session in Spokane, WA

Millers! This is a session that I look forward to EVERY year! You all mean the world to me and I love watching you LOVE each other! The laughter, the inside jokes, the extra hugs...it all comes through loud and clear during your session and makes my job EASY and so much fun. Ryan & Heidi are church leaders at Branches while also running their own businesses at Mango Ink and 08 Left. So much talent, creativity, and inspiration in this family! xo

See more of the the Miller Family in 2014 and 2013!

Naslund Family

A Greenbluff Christmas Tree Farm Family Session in Spokane, WA

I love working with new people, but there is something extra sweet when friends choose you to photograph their family. It always ends up feeling more like a fun outing and nothing like work! I left this family session with a full cup and a grateful heart for all the opportunities I have received through photography. Incredibly loving, generous, authentic, and filled with joy are just a few of the words I would use to describe these sweet souls and I am so thankful for their presence in my life. Thank you Jeff, Karissa, Maddie, + Ellie! xo
