Although the chances are slim, we do have a forecast for snow this week and maybe next week. As most of us know, our little Oak Harbor town shuts down when it snows. So when school is canceled, we’re all scrambling to get our kids all bundled up so they can go out and play.

But some of us like to use the white backdrop for some family portraits, pregnancy portraits, birthday and more.

If you would like to schedule a Snowy Mini Session, give me a call. I will be available during the weekdays only and you may choose either of the two Mini Options:

Session Only Mini Sessions – $50 (Plus tax)

We can either meet up at one of the local state parks or I can come to your neighborhood to capture you and your family (if applicable) right there, in your front yard. I am able to travel down the island to Clinton if needed. These mini sessions are available for any occasion you want to celebrate while in the snow.

Birthday Bash – Part Two: Into The Woods

Monday, November 14, 2016 6:11 pm

This is part two of little B’s birthday sessions. We had a couple of set backs when it came to this sessions. First it was a prop issue on my end and then the rain. The rain would not go away. But as soon as we had a learning, mom and I jumped at the opportunity. Good thing we went when we did, because later that afternoon, it began to rain again.

Because it was a little breezy, we started out with our little boat images first. We found a little area at Deception Pass and quickly caught B just chilling out in the boat. He didn’t want to stand next to the boat, so we just let him stay where he was comfy until it was time to move on. And when we did, he was nice and warm. He was much happier to all dressed. We didn’t need to walk very far. We found a little trail that was perfect to capture a few more with his balloons and snazzy birthday outfit.

Thanks again to mom for her patience with the weather and my prop issue. So glad we didn’t give up and were able to get these done.

Birthday Bash, Part 1 – Cake Smash

Wednesday, November 9, 2016 2:41 pm

I had made some changes to my business offerings a few months ago. Added more digital sessions, simplified session options and so on. I am really happy with how everything is working. This little guy’s mommy took advantage of some of these new session options and scheduled two separate sessions. The first, shown here is part one: the cake smash.

Because this session is only for cake smashing, I had more time to get creative with a colorful set. I create banners, buy balloons and everything else to design a set that goes with your birthday theme. This time, mom had also contributed with two birthday banners of her own. The Happy 1st Birthday banner is from The Party Paper Fairy and the fabric banner with Mickey and the number 1 is from Pippa Stitch Shop. The cake she brought it was perfect too. I provide a list of local bakers for clients to check out for their cake needs. It just so happened that mom unknowingly chose one that was on my list. Big shout out to Ashley’s Sweet Treats here in Oak Harbor, WA for the great cake! With all that, I just coordinated my banners & other props with those and this is what we got. I LOVE IT!

Little B was shy at first, which is pretty normal. He was checking out the place, checking out all the colors and of course, watching me. We kept him busy with hats, balloons and confetti. He went from unsure to just being himself, walking and being silly. He was not too sure about the cake. At first, he looked like he was afraid of it. But as mom dug in a little to help him get to the cake, he began to enjoy it. Probably enjoyed poking at it more than anything, but he did eat some. Altogether, it was a success! Yay!

Welcome Baby M – Newborn Session

Sunday, November 6, 2016 10:58 pm

Baby M was 12 days old when he came in to make his portrait debut. He was very sleepy, very calm and fun of smiles. Just like my previous newborn, he too was a grunter. Letting us know that he knew we were there. It was so cute to hear him. We began with a few image of him in a cute onesie that was an ode to his Grandpa (seen in the 2nd photo). We then got him wrapped up for some individual photos and some with mom. Then we started to unwrap him for more individual photos and some with dad. There were a few requests for particular looks/poses and this little guy was happy to oblige.
