Last week Peter and I took the boys and my mom up to the Skagit County Tulip Festival. We had a great day! If you've never done the Tulip Festival before, it is well worth a trip! Really amazing!
I just had to add a few more of Lily, because she's so darn cute!
My beautiful boy.
Here are a few images from a recent film shoot I did with my little friend Owen. I've work with Owen since he was born. He's normally a pretty smiley guy! But this day he was very serious, and I have to say, I loved it. His mood fit perfectly with the mood of this dark grainy film. So serious, but still so sweet! images shot on my Mamiya 645 using Ilford Delta 3200
Katy Roberts of VOWS Wedding and Event Planning and I have been colleagues for over ten years! One of the first weddings I ever shot was one of the first weddings she ever planned. Since that time we have watched each other grow sucessful businesses. We've work countless weddings and events together. Most important of all, we've become friends. As friends we have seen each other through both good and bad times. She is dear to my heart. And I can not begin to tell you how much I adore her husband Ty. Peter and I were honored to participate in their beautiful Maui wedding! I photographed them and played ukulele for the ceremony. Peter officiated. Despite the crazy Hawaiian wind (and there was a lot of it!!) It was a perfect day!
We love you Katy and Ty!!!
Last week my husband and I flew to Maui for the wedding of our dear friends Katy (owner of Vows: Wedding and Event Planning) and Ty Roberts. I had the great privilege of both photographing the wedding, and playing Ukulele for the ceremony. Peter, my husband, officiated. The wedding was gorgeous (I'll be sharing photos soon)! But before the wedding, Peter and I had a few days to explore and relax. I think our trip is best summed up by this series of portraits I took of Peter. We had a blast! And I must say, I'm pretty lucky to be married to such a totally fun, handsome and talented guy!
My children rarely let me take their picture any more. I usually have to sneak a pic or two when we're out doing something. So the fact that they let me take them up to my studio and take these photos is a big deal!!! And it makes me love the images even more!! shot on my Mamiya 645 using Portra 400
Those cheeks!! Those eyes!! Cutie-cute McCuterson!
If you follow my blog then you know that I've been playing around with shooting film again. I love the texture of it (and the ease!!) The only problem is, it's super dark here in Seattle!!! I love the look of 100 and 400 speed film, but I just don't have enough light to pull it off.... so, I'm now practicing with 3200. This session was shot using Ilford Delta 3200, and I'm absolutely in LOVE with it!!! It's so soft and pretty!!! It just may be my new favorite film!
This is another session from last week's day of film portraits! I think this little guy is so adorable!!
