P-fam Fun in the Seattle Rain

Rain, rain, go away.... come again another day.....

Whatevah...... we made the most of the rain this day!

The family that plays together..... stays together!

I adore photographing and spending time with the P-fam.

I love the way they love on each other.

I love how gentle Mason is to his little brother Grant.

I love how Grant looks with adoration at his big brother Mason.

They are all so effortlessly and classically beautiful to look at... 

and just so easy to be around and THAT makes them even more beautiful!

I can't wait until our Fall session... it's already planned....

Brooklyn

Brooklyn just turned ONE!!!

She and her pretty momma Kacie came to see me for a little celebration session!

Seriously....These two are absolutely delish!!!

{We couldn't go wrong with gorgeous subjects and perfect sunshine.}

I have a serious baby crush on Brooklyn.... I may have uttered out loud that maybe we needed one more.... and Mr. Miles gave me the look.... {uh- NO...} so I'll just have to get my baby snuggles in when Brooklyn visits next time!

I loved meeting this sweet family- can't wait until next time!

Going Away

Brian and Melissa are bursting with pride and breaking a little inside as they

say good-bye to their oldest son Michael who was leaving for boot camp here as he joins the U.S. Navy.

It's a huge step for everyone.. including Michael's little brother and sister

who are going to miss him like crazy!

*****

We had a tiny window in which everyone could be at the same place at the same time... unfortunately for us who live in Western Washington... often those times are in the driving rain.... so we hid in the trees and dodged the drops so that we could have new photos for their folks.

Best of luck on this new adventure T-fam!

Lindsey & Michael

Saying good-by....for now.

Some quick shots together before Michael left for boot camp....

It will be a long year for these two.. 

Hopefully these images will keep them fresh in each other's hearts and minds.
