Baby B. is the daughter of one of my closest friends, and I was so excited to be able to photograph her in all her newborn goodness.  She came three weeks early but was still sleepy and squishy for the session.  My favorites were of her and big brother {Master J.} who I have photographed before as well.  I love sibling shots, when everyone is being cooperative!  Here’s a peek at {Baby B.}, I hope you find her as beautiful as I did!

Meet beautiful {Baby B.}

Such a lovely, cloth diapered baby!

My favorites are capturing moments like this between mommy and her new daughter

Look at those pouty lips

What’s better than kisses from big brother and dad?

Such a sweet look from big brother here.  I also love his hand on her back

All snugged up in daddy’s hands

A quiet moment between mom, dad, and newest addition

Look at all the toesies and feet!

Love this one of mommy and baby outdoors

You know I can never resist a baby in a hat!

Baby L’s father and I are in book club together, and I was honored to be able to take pictures of his adorable baby girl.  She was soooooooo cute, had gorgeous eyes, and such a great sleepy model as well!  Her mom had some special baby jewelry which had been worn in the family for a few generations, which we were able to photograph Baby L. with to preserve the memories.  I’d never seen baby jewelry before, they were a tiny tiny bracelet and an even tinier ring that were just so adorable.  Hope you enjoy the pictures!

Meet {Baby L.}

The baby jewelry…you can just make out the teeny ring on her right hand

She had stellar eye contact for such a little one

Big yawn…I love the pink hat here as well

Who doesn’t love a baby in a lion’s hat?

Look at those lips!

I think she was telling us the photoshoot was over at this point :)

sleepy, sweet baby

{The D Family} – Seattle/Eastside Family Photographer

I photographed {the D.

I photographed {the D. Family} this summer to celebrate their adorable boys turning three and one respectively.  In my experience three year olds are the best age to photograph!  Master T proved me right, and was a total ham for my camera.  I loved seeing his personality come out in the pictures.  Master D was your typical one year old and through lots of bribery, he allowed me to photograph him as well.  Here’s a peek into their session!

Meet {Master T}, age 3 and proud of it!

I was able to photograph Miss L this past weekend.  Her mom is also a fabulous photographer, but everyone knows that it’s hardest to photograph your own children!  She was gracious enough to let me come up and play with her adorable baby.  In addition, we got to take advantage of the gorgeous autumnal colors [...]

I was able to photograph Miss L this past weekend.  Her mom is also a fabulous photographer, but everyone knows that it’s hardest to photograph your own children!  She was gracious enough to let me come up and play with her adorable baby.  In addition, we got to take advantage of the gorgeous autumnal colors we’ve been experiencing this fall.  They had a beautiful maple tree in their front yard which made for a splendid backdrop.  And it barely rained, it was a fantastic day for a photo session.  Here’s a peek at the results!

Meet {Miss L.}

I loved all the squishy faces she made

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 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!

My older son was the ring bearer for the wedding

My sister and her new husband

dsc_0192wm

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

dsc_0173wm

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!

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}

 con_019web

The women’s side

The men’s side

Love after all these years

 con_064webbw

Great Grandma was nice enough to let me take a close up

 con_118web

I adore babies and photograph them any chance that I get

 con_148web

This little guy cracked me up, he was all about moving away from the camera!

 con_211web

But such a happy little boy!

 con_241web

A different kind of family shot

 con_158webbw

Say cheese!

I photographed Miss E and her family last fall, and her mom brought her back to me to capture her in her 18 month glory.  We met at one of my favorite local parks, Bothell Landing.  Let me tell you, this girl had me running the entire photoshoot just to catch up with her!  Miss E.  did not slow down for an instance, and I definately had to pull all my tricks to get her to look at me and the camera.  Fortunately, mom came along with some relatives who also did a great job in getting Miss E to look towards the camera.  She was a very serious toddler, but I did capture a couple of smiles on camera.  Here’s a sneak peek at Miss E’s photo shoot!

Meet {Miss E.}

 emi_142web

See how her feet are posed to run?

 emi_099web

She had just so much fun walking and running around the park

 emi_313web

Aha camera lady, you’ll never catch me!

 emi_310webbw

A quiet, serious moment

 emi_255webbw

From serious to happy in 0.2 seconds!

 emi_257webbw

The expression she’s giving the camera just cracks me up here

emi_259web 

She posed herself and I was thankful she was still enough for me to fire off some shots

 emi_273web

Still trepidatious about the camera I was holding in front of her all the time

 emi_222web

This was a run-by smile

 emi_231web

Look!  A shot where her feet were completely still

 emi_194web

Such an adorable face!

 emi_191web

And lastly, smiles with mommy

I had the pleasure of photographing Master A., his parents and extended family last fall when he turned one.  His parents brought him again to me for his 18 month pictures, and it was fun seeing just how much he had grown.  He was very stoic for the camera, but I was able to coax a few smiles out of him.  We also got to go outside and get some nice family shots as well. 

I tried something new in my processing with a couple of his pictures.  Normally I do a very clean process of the picture, but something about his little outfit and the toys he was playing with made me think of a slightly older time.  Enjoy the pictures!

Meet {Master A}

dsc_0027webwm1

This was his expression for most of the photoshoot

dsc_0147webwm

Look, an almost smile!

dsc_0085webwm

Another half smile – boy was he hard to crack!  :)

dsc_0040webbwwm

Full out giggle – look at those lashes!

dsc_0094webbwwm

Playing with some wooden blocks, I love how this picture looks like something from back when I was a little kid.  In fact I think I have a similar picture somewhere of me!

dsc_0121web70wm

Hello world!

dsc_0109web70wm

Family time.  Look at how he’s holding his dad’s hand – I love it!

dsc_0163webwm

Look, finally a big smile with mom

dsc_0182webwm

Not sure how he feels about being left in the grass

dsc_0240webwm

{Master A} on the move!
