I took this photo of my niece last Christmas as she slept soundly in my childhood bedroom in the bed that I used to sleep in. The room looks a little different, but I’ve been thinking about this photo for awhile after hearing a song by Hem called “Half Acre”. I am holding half an […]

I love fall and I love shooting football.
Instagram Madness
Having fun with Instagram. Here are a few of my favorites in the past few weeks.
Hooray for Taylor!
Had the privilege of photographing South Kitsap High School student, Taylor Sunkel, for her senior photos at Point Defiance Park in Tacoma, WA. She is an awesome basketball player and and a great girl. Good luck Taylor!

Pacific Northwest Punky
Well, her name is really Adeline, but since I’ve been babysitting for her I’ve somehow managed to nickname her Punky. Had a little photo shoot with her and had to share the northwoods adorableness.
