{Baby P – 10 days old} Seattle Area Newborn Photographer

Hello folks!  I took a break this summer as I spent more time with my family, and tried to adjust the balance between doing photography sessions and family life.  It’s been a challenge at times, and I thank everyone for their patience this summer!

I got back into the action photographing this delicious newborn boy last week.  He was very alert and awake, and poor little bub just wanted to nurse from his mama.  It made for a interesting photo shoot, but we got some beautiful awake baby shots before we finally got some fun sleeping baby shots.  Introducing baby boy P!

What do I love doing with sleeping babies?  Use them as hat stands!

Mama had such great homemade hats for me to use as props!

I wasn’t kidding about using him as a hat stand.  :)

I had the pleasure of photographing this cute couple and their dachshunds last fall, and was so excited when they called me up again to photograph the new addition to their family.  Baby W was a dream baby to photograph!  Not only was he oh-so-sleepy and bendy, he rarely complained about any of the positions as I was arranging him.  I had so many favorite shots from this photoshoot it was hard to come up with only a few for the sneak peek.  However, I think my favorite part was also that I wasn’t the recipient of the stray pee blast this time (sorry Baby W dad!).  :)   Here’s Baby W’s sneak peek, I hope you find him as adorable as I did!

Baby W is so pleased to meet you

My sister got married last week.  We are Vietnamese, so along with the western ceremony and reception,  she also had the traditional Vietnamese reception.  Twice as much bridal fun!  As the sister, I got to sit back and watch the action and ceremonies without having to be “on”.  The talented David Frank photographed my sister’s [...]

 

My sister got married last week.  We are Vietnamese, so along with the western ceremony and reception,  she also had the traditional Vietnamese reception.  Twice as much bridal fun!  As the sister, I got to sit back and watch the action and ceremonies without having to be “on”.  The talented David Frank photographed my sister’s western wedding and reception, here are just some of my snapshots from the day.

My sister, the glowing bride!

My mom and my little sister.  I hope I look this good when I’m my mom’s age!

Yes, my older son definately knows how to ham it up to the camera.

This picture is not technically great at all, being out of focus and blurry.  The sheer joy in my youngest son’s face makes up for all the technical flaws though.  :D

I had the pleasure of photographing Baby C at the ripe old age of nine days old.  She was a wee little thing, and such alertness in a newborn!  While I love sleeping newborn pictures, I think my favorites were when she was awake and her big eyes were taking in the world.  Here’s a look at Baby C!

Look at the eye contact in such a young baby!  And of course, she’s blowing me a raspberry as well

I met with the extended {C Family} at a park in Woodinville to take pictures of four generations.  It was a real pleasure to meet everyone and get a chance to photograph them all together in one place for posterity.  The kids took a little while to warm up to my camera, and great-grandma was a little tired by the end of the shoot but she was still a good sport about all the posing.  Here are their pictures!

Meet the {C Family}
