Skagit Valley Maternity Photographer: Jill

March 18, 2017

It takes a pretty amazing woman to get up early to stand in the snow and look this good doing it and lets not forget she's pregnant. Best part is I only gave her about an hour to get herself ready with four little ones begging to go play in the freshly fallen snow. 

Not even a week before this impromptu session Jill and I were talking about how we were going to top her last maternity session, taken in August with one of the most beautiful skies I have ever had the privilege of photographing. I joked that we would have to drive a few hours to find snow. Little did we know that the snow would come to us. 

I called Jill to tell her to get up and get dressed as we were taking photos in 30 minutes. She walked out with her make up done, hair curled and in this beautiful gown, from Picture Perfect Bowtique, and everyone's jaw dropped. I knew she was going to look great but she was nothing short of stunning. 

Thanks Jill for being so adventurous with me.

Skagit Valley Newborn Photographer: Kinsey 7 days

February 17, 2017

I had the privilege of being one of the first to know this little one was on her way, the first to know that she was a girl and one of the first to get to meet her. I am honored to be invited into this family during this special time. She was well worth the wait, everything about her is so perfect and she was a photographers dream client.

This big man sure has grown a lot since his newborn session. He's as active as ever, trying so hard to take steps around the studio and not even 9 months old. 

No man loves outfit changes and accessories but he was a good sport despite the multiple outfit changes. But they were so worth it!

Smash the cake: Mr. J

January 23, 2017

Remember this adorable newborn session? Well guess what he's ONE. 

I'm pretty sure I have had more sessions with this little man then with my own son. And he's only 1. But I'm not about to complain after all he's a much more cooperative then my own son when it comes to photos. I mean look how cute he is and his baby blues are mesmerizing. 

This little man had an logger themed first birthday. Complete with matching red flannels. 

Ask us how you can add a smash cake to your little one's birthday session

Pretty sure I taught him to say cake for the first time during his session. Happy birthday Mr. J

Skagit Valley Maternity Photographer- Baby Burton

October 29, 2016

Brittney and I met in high school. But we didn't truly become friends until us and another close friend were chosen to be our school's yearbook editors. When you grow up in a small school apparently experience isn't that high on the priority list when choosing leaders. They handed us a nice camera and a whole lot of responsibility. This is actually where my love for "nice camera" started. 


In the years to follow Brittney went on to become a successful business owner and the only person I will trust to cut my hair. When she told us she was expecting her first little one this coming December I was beyond excited for her, and a little nervous for my hair during her maternity leave.

Despite her reservations I'm so glad Brittney's husband Austin was able to talk her into getting maternity photos done, and that she trusted me to take them.

Congratulations Burton family I can't wait to meet your little man!

Skagit Valley Family Photographer: Brittni and Bobby

July 21, 2016

Brittni and Bobby were married five years ago in Texas. Shortly after they moved to Washington state. They are truly a couple you never forget once you meet them. They are incredibly sweet and are raising their children to just as sweet. 

In just the beginning of their dating relationship they went through things that could break even the strongest married couple. However the hard times just made them stronger.

Brittni and Bobby's ceremony was held out side in a wide open field, where their guest sat on blankets. This is the exact blanket they said their vows on. But now it's joined by two adorable littles.
