I met some great new clients last weekend. Things have been a little slower around here recently, as I’ve cut back on my shooting hours to focus more on family. It’s been wonderful and I’ve loved the extra time to be with the kids and my hubby without having deadlines nagging in the back of...

The T. family
This family was one of my very first clients. They have trusted me since the beginning of AKP three years ago and I’m grateful for them. The beautiful mommy, Marissa, has blessed my family several times over the past few years. She’s crafty and artistic and thoughtful and not afraid to share those talents with...
W. family holiday portraits
This is one of my favorite families to photography. I have such a great time on my sessions with the W. family. This was my fifth session with them! Check out our first, second, third and fourth. This family is just so fun to hang out with because they laugh together so genuinely. Anyone can...
The S. twins and their big sister
Who hasn’t wondered what it would be like to raise twins? Or to BE a twin? I’m sure most of us have wondered at one point or another what it would be like to raise two sweet souls (or BE one of those souls) whose lives begin closer to each other than most of us...
The M. Kids (and their cousins)
This was a session I was so looking forward to, as I don’t get to see my friend Becky as often anymore now we no longer have MOPS every other week. That, and her children are incredibly adorable and so fun to work with. Remember our awesome session in Buckley last year? Well this year,...
T. Family at Point Defiance
This was one of my most favorite sessions to edit from the whole summer. The colors, the lighting, the cute baby grins … it was all just so joyful. I always left the computer in a better mood after working on these pictures of the T. family. This was part two of a session package...
The U. Family
My second time with the U. family and it was just as sweet as the first. It’s always a joy to see these old friends, as my husband and I went to college with them and sang in the WSU Crimson Company Show Choir with Bryan. As part of that awesome group for two years,...
The S. Family
This is the S. family. I’ve photographed them four times now and every time, I’m always impressed at the grace, peace and kindness that emanates from every family member. It’s always a joy to take their pictures. This year, I got to meet their littlest addition and he proved to be just as sweet and...
The E. Family
There are several things I will remember about this fun session with these repeat clients of mine. For one, it is always so cool when I get to meet up with a child for whom I’d done newborn pictures a full 12 months earlier. It amazes me how much the little one has grown, how...
The F. Family
I’ve known Andy and Ashley for a long time … I’m not even quite sure how long. We went to high school together and probably middle school, too. I remember I had math class with Andy one year with this teacher who spoke verrrrrrry slllllowly. And then I remember seeing Ashley on the WSU campus...
