Fall Portraits

Fall Family Portraits with Fiona + Winnie

Fiona + Winnie’s family had a beautiful fall portrait session at Governor NElson State Park

The weather could not have been any more lovely for these two little ones and their family during their portrait session, and Winnie + Fiona enjoyed the heck out of what Governor Nelson State Park had to offer in terms of leaves, sand, and playground equipment while we were there! Enjoy the fun photos of this adorable family!

Fall Family Portraits at Governor Nelson State Park

Governor Nelson State Park was extra gorgeous for these fun family portraits

The Fall colors have been elusive this season because of how warm it’s been, but we managed to find some for family photos of Erin + Dan and their three kids (young adults now, holy crap)! It was a gorgeous and fun day and despite the shenanigans, not a single teen died of embarrassment, so I’ll call it a win! It’s always so fun to photograph this wonderful family! Enjoy the photos!

Fall Family Portraits at Pope Farm Conservancy

Pope Farm Conservancy is the perfect spot for fall family photos!

The golden hour sun, the leaves, the EAGLES, and this adorable family made for the perfect fall family portrait session! The kids had more than enough energy for walking around the park (and thankfully there was lots of room to run too), and it is always a pleasure to photograph this wonderful family!

Fall Family Portraits at the UW Arboretum

It is always a joy to get to see clients whose weddings we’ve photographed again, especially when I get to meet the next generation!

Will is such a sweet kiddo, and it was a blessing to get to meet him and catch up with Catherine + John, whose wedding we photographed almost a decade ago! This little pumpkin wasn’t so sure about the camera at first, but look at the smile on him (and the extra skeptical side-eye too lol)! Congrats to this adorable little family!

Fall Family Portraits at the Epic Campus

Epic was the perfect setting for these family portraits!

Sean, Jenny, and Ava (along with their two pups Maggie and Bernie) were troopers with the drizzle and wind that happened during their family portraits, but holy smokes did these turn out pretty! Epic was a beautiful backdrop for these family portraits, and I am always pumped to get to pet more dogs, so this was literally a perfect session even with the weather being temperamental! Enjoy the photos of this sweet family!

Family Portraits at Thousand Oaks Park

Family portraits aren’t only for families with young children

Family portraits are an awesome idea for all families! Claire (and her adorable rescue pup Jojo) invited her parents and sister to take family portraits while they were all in town visiting, and I love how these golden hour family photos turned out!

Daliah + Jakob: A Delightful Early Fall Engagement Session at Pope Farm Conservancy

We may not have fall colors yet, but we definitely had cozy vibes for this fall engagement session

Daliah (she/they) and Jakob (he/his) were such a joy to work with! I mean, just look at those smiles! We made the best of the unseasonably warm October weather and lack of fall colors, but still managed to get that beautiful golden hour light and cozy vibes that I love in engagement photos! We can’t wait to celebrate with them for their wedding next year!

Mushroom's Senior Portraits at the UW Arboretum

This young adult has the best style

And the best taste in X-men characters! (I’m in agreement with Mushroom that Dazzler doesn’t get nearly enough love) It was such a joy to get to talk with them and their mom and grandma during their portrait session! Good luck with senior year, Mushroom!

Fall Family Portraits at the UW Arboretum

I love the enthusiasm and personality Kayleigh and Alex bring to family portraits!

I also am soooo jealous of having that much energy, but it’s always a blast spending time with these four, and seeing what wacky adventures the kids will get into. I love all the “monster” pics in particular!

Enjoy these adorable fall family photos!

Winnie + Fiona Lakeside Family Portraits

This adorable little family had fall family portraits right on the lake!

I love this little park in walking distance from Winnie + Fiona’s house, and the kids clearly loved it too! We had fun goofing around and playing games to keep the kids entertained and enjoyed the crisp fall weather and lovely clouds this past Sunday while we were taking photos.

Enjoy these super sweet family moments and get out there and enjoy some fall time yourselves!

Elly + Kevin: A Chilly Golden Hour Elopement Session

Elly + Kevin got married in a tiny ceremony on October 30th

But unfortunately I was out of commission due to a surprise gallbladder removal (not the kind of surprise I’d typically want, but I’m all better now). We decided to do elopement portraits to celebrate their wedding once I was all healed up, and we visited both Lake Farm Park and the Lussier Family Heritage Center for their portraits. It was SOOOOO chilly but Elly + Kevin were troopers and we got some super fun and awesome photos and we got back into cars before anyone’s nose fell off, which I’m counting as a win.

Help me wish Elly + Kevin a big congrats, and enjoy the photos!
