Rhianna

Gorgeous LSHS  senior Rhianna M. and eyes that could melt your soul..... wow... just wow.

High school seniors are one of my most favorite subjects.... but this particular student is a favorite because I've known her since she was a little girl and it makes me so happy to see the amazing woman she has grown into being.... good stuff for sure!

Best of luck honey-girl!

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....

Beautiful Brehani

Brehani is a childhood friend of my husband's. 

I've met her in person a couple of times and have stayed in touch with her via social media and we have mingled for years through a plethora of mutual friends.

 

She's super sweet, spunky, funny and a rabid sports fan- which makes me giddy happy to know that I'm not the only girl out there who loves sports!

 {and who totally understands that she who has the most bling WINS!!!!!!}

 

Every single time I see a shared photo of her- I am just speechless at how incredibly beautiful she is.

 

 Her cinnamon skin is flawless!  Her sparkling eyes give you an indicator of the warmth and love that lives in her soul and her smile absolutely confirms it!  And those perfectly pouty lips- are what all women wish for- she's a blessed individual for certain! 

Such a beauty inside and out.

 

So when she mentioned that she was coming home to Seattle for a visit- I jumped at the chance to photograph her!  She brought along her *favorite* and only Niece Mary Mattea and we had a fun time playing in downtown Bellevue in the glorious evening sun. And just for the record- M.M. 's eyes really are that color- no enhancement needed- they are crazy bright- beauty just runs in the family!

 

Thanks for playing with me girls!!

The Heather BB fam

Heather phoned me a while back- Scott's folks had made a surprise visit to Seattle from the East  Coast- so this was the perfect opportunity to have some family portraits done. So we prayed for "no rain...." and crossed our fingers with a plan to meet at Washington Arboretum.  We lucked out on the weather and I just have such a crush on all of them- so cute!!!!

{and my camera LOVES Alice the older sister in that yellow..... her eyes and that smile are magic!!!}
