This beautiful, summer wedding at Kiana Lodge was one of my favorite weddings! Kiana Lodge is located in the Olympic National Park. The wedding venue has the perfect spot to host any size wedding. This is a really unique venue and my first time shooting here. The venue is sprinkled with flowers, trees and shrubs […]

This Point Defiance family session was with one of the most beautiful families I know. I connected with Lane and Tony through mutual friends back when they were first expecting baby Theo. I had the honor of documenting a few maternity shots and I was so excited to be asked back to document Theo turning […]

Grace’s senior session at Point Defiance Park in Tacoma, WA was simply perfection. I’ve had the honor of shooting Grace’s older brother for his senior photos as well as their whole family.
