Little Addison
Posted on September 5, 2010
Some little ones just need a bit of extra help to come out of their shell at picture time. Addison happened to have a great tutu that mom wanted her to wear…she had different ideas. Took a bit of convincing (and me putting the tutu on my head) and she was happy to put it on. I must apologize to the dad, he just wasn’t fast enough to get his camera out and shoot me looking silly!

Hole in One….
Posted on August 30, 2010
My six year old son, Jordan, made a hole in one on the golf course today! For those of you who don’t golf this is extremely rare and some golfers go their whole career without one. It was a par 3 about 105-110 yards and he hit a 3 wood off the tee. I saw the ball rolling on the green toward the flag and then heard the ball hit the stick. There was a hill on the green and I couldn’t quite tell if it had gone in. Once we were close to the green I started running because I couldn’t see the ball. On the green I am still looking and then find it…there it is in the bottom of the cup, Jordan’s green smiley face golf ball. He still doesn’t understand how amazing this is, but we do. So happy that Matt (my husband) was there with us today to witness it, because I know that he would have been sad if he wasn’t there!!!!!

Summer Family Portraits {bellingham photographer}
Posted on July 30, 2010
Summer is a great time to have family portraits taken. June was a bit of a bummer month weather wise…so once we started getting nice weather I was out there scheduling sessions!!!! These were taken on our first nice day and I was so excited in the morning to be able to wear a tank top…little did I remember that Marine Park is right on the water and has a nice cool breeze. The session was a little chillier than expected, but all went well and we enjoyed some fun images. It’s not to late for summer photos, it’s a great time to schedule fall sessions, and it’s never to early to start thinking about those family christmas cards!!!!

Working as a second shooter {wedding photography}
Posted on July 28, 2010
Amy Parsons (Amy Parsons Photography) asked me to assist her with a wedding a few weeks ago…little did I know that about half of the bridal party were ex-students of mine!!! I was great to see them all grown up and acting like adults. Second shooting is a lot of fun, all the excitement, none of the responsibility. Here are a few of my images, Amy and I are two crazy peas in a pod!

The true Alaskan…
Posted on July 26, 2010
This is a story that could probably be true of most REAL Alaskans. We returned back to my friends house from a trip to the grocery store and I began putting things away. When I opened the freezer to put the ice cream away I was flooded with memories…of fishing 
This is what the freezer of a real Alaskan looks like, so much fish that there is little room for ice cream (and Alaskans love their ice cream. Good thing I helped her out by taking some of the fish back with me! It wouldn’t be a true Alaskan experience if I wasn’t checking at least one fish box with the airline!

An evening with the girls…
Posted on July 23, 2010
So for those of you who don’t already know me…please forgive the photos in this post. We have enjoyed a wonderful day here in Alaska with just the girls. We headed out to Girdwood and the Alyeska resort where we went up the tram and we able to see the lovely Turnagain Arm (photos of that to follow in a later post). When we got home I helped my friend out by keeping the girls busy while she made dinner…they played beauty parlor and I know that you will all love the results. Guess this is what I’m missing out on by not having girls, eh?

Going home!
Posted on July 22, 2010
For the first time in eight years I am headed back to Anchorage. For those of you who don’t already know this I am truly Alaska Grown. Born and raised there, I left at 18 to move down to Bellingham and attend Western Washington University. My parents moved down the following year and this left me little reason to return. I continued to work a few summers at Alaska Airlines to pay for school and spent weekends commuting back to Bellingham to be with Matt.
It is a strange feeling going back. It is home, but so many things have changed. The security guard at the airport saw my license and said that this is my home and he’s right, but there will always be part of me that considers Alaska home. I look forward to being able to share some photos with you of my journey and my old stomping grounds!!!! Hooray for AK baby!
