Sometimes even the best laid plans do not go as expected. I came to take pictures of little Nate with lots of ideas in my head, but this little guy would not sleep. I tried all of my best tricks, and nothing would make him get into that deep sleep I usually need to get the poses I like to use. Although little Nate was a challenging little guy, it was great to be forced into thinking of some different poses to use. W e did get a few pockets of sleep, and I was also able to get some shots off while he was blinking, so it looked like he was asleep

Little Nate- A Wide Awake Newborn
March 21, 2011Sweet Evie at Two Years Old
March 20, 2011Evie was just a couple of weeks away from turning two when I took pictures of her. She is a sweet little girl, full of smiles and cute little looks. We played, danced, and sang songs and were able to get a great set of photos.
I love this age… they have such great personalities that really come out when you take their pictures. Sometimes you will get serious looks, sometimes a lot of laughs, smiles, or giggles, and sometimes you will get the full range of emotions.
A Goodbye for The Hoganson Family
March 19, 2011I have been so behind with my blog posting, but I hope to get back into the swing of things (at least until our little guy is born… he is due in just a few short weeks)! I took these photos of the Hoganson family back in November to say goodbye before they left for New Jersey. Brad, Traci, Shea, and Camden will always have a special place in my heart and I will miss them greatly
Brad was my youth pastor, Bible Study leader, and played a variety of roles while I was growing up. He later became our associate pastor, and then our full pastor. Brad married my husband and I and baptised our daughter Mattea.
Traci was my youth leader, a good friend, worked on the women’s ministry board with me, participated in many Bible Studies with me, and was just a great person to talk to.
I remember when both Shea and Camden were born, and have watched them grow up into great kids.
I hope they know how much I (and so many people here in Washington) miss them, but we are so glad to see them move on to something they believe the Lord is calling them to do.
