I believe Real is the new perfect.
I believe in the beauty of your life, not someone else’s version. I want to see you and your life the way it really is, in all its messy, beautiful, unmatching, perfectly imperfect glory. There is art and beauty in your normal moments. Seeing them will lead you to gratitude. I believe the everyday moments are the ones you’ll miss the most. I believe people are inherently valuable and interesting. I think moments make up lifetimes, which make up our history. I believe pictures look better on a wall than on a disc.
PHOTOGRAPHY IS NOTHING- IT'S LIFE THAT INTERESTS ME. -HENRI CARTIER-BRESSON
If you want to buy matching outfits and find a field full of flowers I can refer you to lots of great photographers who will take a beautiful picture of everyone looking at the camera. But that doesn't make my heart sing. That picture doesn't tell me a thing about who you are and what your family's story is.
My favorites: Jesus, cold water ocean swimming, yoga, running, a great Manhattan, garden growing, a good double-play, an herby gin, a quick wit, Mary Oliver, astrophysics, Nacho Libre, Sherlock, Bon Apetit magazine, pepper on my popcorn, kale in my smoothies, The Brothers K, CS Lewis, Annie Dillard and Rilke, living room dance parties and movie night with my husband and four children.

May I take your picture?
I am a documentary family and wedding photographer located in the Seattle-Tacoma area. I accept commissions for family sessions, portraits, weddings, commercial and editorial work. I'm based in the Great Pacific Northwest, but please inquire about traveling, I love to do that too and do take commissions on the road when I can.
