I had the pleasure of photographing Miss A today. At four years old she is a little ball of energy. Together we romped around her grandparent property. It is a place that for her means play and she was all around, moving from one spot to another. Her favorite color is red, and she loves all the Disney Princess'. I told her she looked like a princess so here is Princess A. We also threw daddy in a couple of pictures. Thanks Bryan and Princess A for helping make my Saturday a fun adventure.

Here is my 2nd Yakima session from the weekend.. I got to go hang out with Brenda, Travis and the kids. We had a great time at the closed fruit stand and the abandoned house across the street. I had a long weekend, but it was so much fun. Thanks Brenda and Travis for getting a little fruity with me!

This weekend I was in Yakima and did a couple of sessions while there visiting. Pams has two rough and tumble teen boys and beautiful twin girls. I was able to take them to my uncles property and explore it with them. It was an amazing adventure with lots of fun stuff.. I can't wait to go back and do more sessions there. Here is the sneak peek from that session.. Meet Jeff, Jared, Sierra and Jaquelyn.

Meet Miss I, she is 8 days old and today she had her portrait taken. Now mom and photographer wanted the adorable sleepy baby shots, but Miss I had other plans. She was bright eyed for the entire session. Mom tried the swing, feeding, holding and walking and she would not budge. So she wiggled and squirmed a lot and even initiated the photographer who dared disturb her and hold her without a diaper. I was able to get some adorable shots. Here are a couple of the first ones processed.
