  • We are Permanently Closed

    After serving Oak Harbor since 2006, I have closed my doors officially. I am still on Whidbey Island, but no longer offering photography services or learning classes on a regular basis. I am only offering Preschool Portraits for Ms. Ashley's Preschool in the spring.

    Past clients may be able to purchase digital images from their past sessions if they are still available on my archive drives. Contact me for more info.

    If you are a photographer inquiring about the possible purchase of my props and/or backdrops, many of my items are listed on Facebook Marketplace. Feel free to contact me for direct links or to inquire about anything you see in y portraits that you are interested in to see if they are available.

    Thank you for trusting me with your family portraits since 2006. I loved working with you all.

3 Month Old “A” – Baby Planner

Isn’t she just the cutest thing? I am so in love with this little girl and I am so thrilled that I get to spend every 3 months with her while she is on my Inch By Inch, Baby’s 1st year plan. Daddy is in Navy, stationed here in Oak Harbor, WA (NAS Whidbey Island) and is currently away. Mommy wasn’t going to have pics taken with little “A” since Daddy was not here to join her. But she changed her mind the morning of the session and I am so glad she did. Aren’t they just adorable!? Their interaction together was so sweet to watch.

Little “A” is very social. I even got to snuggle with her for a while as we took a break in between outfits and backdrop changes. Mom taught me about the Korean tradition call Baek-il, it’s a 100 day celebration. If I remember correctly, she said that it is celebrated because there was a time when newborn babies in Korea did not live long due to the country’s little medical knowledge. So, like a 1st birthday celebration, their would be a party full with decorations & yummy foods. Mommy didn’t have a big party for little “A”, but I was do glad to be able to take her pic on her 101th day! To see one more image of little “A”, click HERE.

4 Year Old “A”

I’ve been photographing little A since she was in her mommy’s tummy. Every year, she comes back for her yearly birthday portraits. It’s amazing to be able to watch her grow up and become her friend through it all. This year, she shared with me some fun yoga & dance poses. She was up and down, twisting and turning. And of course, we got some of those silly faces in between. Thanks again for another smooth and joyous session! Can’t wait to see you again next year and find out what’s new and what you’re into!

Miss Personality Turns 4

I’ve been photographing little “I” for about 3 years. She has always been so quiet, so shy, but always full of smiles. She brings in her little monkey (stuffed animal) and we always make sure that it takes part in the session. As always, she was a great listener and took direction as to where to sit and where to look. As we went on, her “at home” personality began to come into play. She was very playful and talkative, went from the proper lady to the silly little girl that she was withholding from me for so long. It was so fun to watch her as she giggled and jiggled around. I had to stop and just laugh with her as we would set her up, turn for a second to then turn again and she was completely opposite of how I left her. And of course, she had a huge smile and sparkles in her eyes. Couldn’t help but laugh.. and then set her up again (and again). 🙂

We did get her to sit quite still as she enjoyed a little bit of her cupcake in celebration of her 4th birthday. We also were able to get her to model an outfit from The Curly Girly Boutique. (To see one of those images, click HERE)

K Thaemert | Children's Photographer St Charles - So cute. I love all the pink. 🙂

Juliet Graham - They turned out so well…very cute!

Lori Struthers Stahl - Can't wait to see the rest!

15 Month Old “L”

I think we intended to get little “L” in earlier, but schedules were not meshing well. Either way, he was wonderful. The last time he was here, he was with his siblings. And just like his brothers & sister, he was easy to work with and a complete joy to play with. We had him on chairs, stools, in buckets & of course, on the floor. He had fun making silly faces, playing with mom and trying to crawl away! To see one more image of this cutie, click HERE.

Heather Puett - So adorable. Love the second to last image.

Sarah Duckworth - Oh is he ever cute – and you got such a variety of expressions – I love that second to last with him leaning on the chair – so so sweet!

Corey Sewell - What a doll! Love the one of him leaning on the chair – so sweet!

alej keigan - omigod, he’s adorable. the one with the chair, i’m dying. great shots!!

Lisa Kelly - You have done a wonderful job, this can be a hard age but you have rocked this session. The imagine with him leaning on the back of the chair, sigh, that is perfect.

CreativeImages Tammy - ohhhhhhhhh they are super but I LOVE LOVE the one where his arms and head are leaning on the back of the chair!

Sarah Pierce - Oh my gosh how adorable!!! What a cutie! Love your color and variety too!

Sindea Horste - What a cutie! Great images.

Anita Scheftner - Sooooo adorable!

Robbie - He is precious! I love the backdrops you used for him, too!

Enjoying This Heat? We Are!

Good morning Whidbey Island! It’s going to be another hot day today! I have been spending the daytime hanging out with my kids and in the evenings, working on proofs, orders and more. I am working on proofs right now while my house is still cool. But soon, the computers will have to be turned off to keep them from overheating. Like most islanders, we don’t have air conditioning in our house.

I’ve been getting lots of calls and emails asking for updates. So, here are a few…

MY ANKLE INJURY: Physical therapy is helping. I am still bruised and sore. But I am able to walk (slowly). Full range of motion is still not there yet, but we’re working on it.

PROOF QUEUE: I am currently working through DAY TWO of The Curly Girly Boutique Model Sessions. Here’s the list of who’s next:

  • Stahl 4th Bday
  • Kettlewell 4th Bday
  • Ji/Crawford 3 Month (baby plan)
  • Kapity Family
*Please remember that I don’t outsource any of my work. And with it being summer, my kids get top priority during the day time. Thank you for your patience and understanding.*

 

RE-OPENING MY SCHEDULE: I am currently on my personal vacation and will reopen at the end of the month. Although I am receiving inquiries, I will not add anyone else in to my schedule until I officially reopen at the end of the month. I will be sending out a newsletter with schedule information and will be taking in sessions after that is sent.

The Availability Calendar will be updated with slots available and all sessions will be first PAID (minimum deposit), first served. I will not be able to hold session slots for anyone beyond the 3 days payment window.

So, if you have been waiting for the announcement,  be sure to subscribe to my newsletter so that you receive the info as soon as it comes out. Click HERE to subscribe today.
