The Steps

I love these steps at UW Tacoma. They make an interesting background for portraits.

A little preview of my sunny, urban photo session yesterday. These were taken in downtown Tacoma. I really love all the different colors and textures in these urban sessions.

Spring is in the air in Western Washington! We have had an absolutely gorgeous week. I'm sure more rain is in our future but it has been so nice to be able to get out and enjoy the sunshine and fresh air. And nicer weather means more opportunities for pictures outside! The kids and I went exploring at Point Defiance Park in Tacoma today. These photos were taken at the Japanese Garden and the Logging Museum. I love the train track photos. I'm anxious to take some clients there.

A couple of business things:

My weekends are currently booked until April 19 (with the exception of this upcoming weekend). I do have weekday availability in March.

Don't forget about my baby special - it ends next week! I'm also planning to add a "Baby's First Year Portrait Package" in the next week or so.

And now for some more photos from last week in Seattle.

A day off school + clear skies + everyone healthy = a fun day in Seattle all documented by a MWAC (Mom with a Camera).













And a little bit of personal trivia. I worked at the Spaghetti Factory in college (circa 1989!). I hated it. We worked our tails off for small tips and I spent many hours scooping butter and spumoni ice cream. I couldn't even stand the smell of the place and I swore I'd never step foot in one again. But today the kids were hungry, it was right across the street from where we were and I knew the kids would like it. I will report that it still smells the same, the menu is the same and they still know how to make pretty good spaghetti.
