Sohn Family | Fall Mini Barn Mini Session | Green Bluff

I am playing catch up at the beginning of this 2016. And actually, I really like it because it takes me back to this last beautiful fall day up in Green Bluff for my fall Mini Barn Mini Session day! I miss those days of crisp air but not frigid, beautiful changing colors and the beginning of cozy fall clothes. I'll be sharing some of last fall's mini sessions through out this month. If you want to be notified of upcoming Mini Sessions days in 2016, get on my email list here.

First up, my friends the Sohns! You may remember their awesome Bowl & Pitcher family shoot here. I could just photograph them all day every day. They are so easy breezy and also beautiful covergirl (and boys) ;). Avery was a total ham and had me laughing so hard as he sprinted around me. These three are the sweetest, and I cannot wait for what 2016 will bring them. Cheers!

Kling Family | Snow Day Mini Session | Hamblen Park, South Hill Spokane

I'm sohappy I decided to offer Snow Day Mini Sessions during the month of January! I mean the light, the fluffy white snow, the excitement - just a perfect snowy Spokane day. :) I could not be happier. The boys were total troopers in this 9 degree weather! We worked fast and shot this entire mini session in about 20 minutes in Hamblen Park. I love that this nature preserve park provides so much untouched beauty right in the middle our South Hill neighborhood. The snow is starting to melt but it still covers the ground in outlying fields and open areas like this - message me if you want to shoot a mini snow session. For now, enjoy the adorable Kling family!

Northrop Family | Outdoor Family Photos | Spokane

In looove with this new location — thanks to Kayla for finding it! My dear friend Kayla and I did a photographer family session swap, and it turned out great (see our photos on her fb page)! You guys, two families, 30 minutes, in and out. It was cold! Kayla and I met 3 years ago and almost 3 babies ago between us now. I'm so thankful for our chance meeting and unexpected friendship and photoging. Kayla is the heart of a good mom pal and embodies community over competition.
Enjoy their fall family photos - Andrew, Emerson, Kayla, and baby sister to be! The colors were perrrfect for this location! Emerson, you cutie patootie, can't wait to see you with your baby sister this spring! <3

Baby Cora's Newborn Photos | Baby Collection | Spokane

You may remember the Hemmer family's cute fall Manito Park maternity session here. Well baby Cora was born not too long after that actually! They had a bit of a whirlwind beginning, bringing home their newborn, then displaced for over a week with no power, than finally back home, then stricken with the stomach flu. And yet so patient and kind and gracious through it all. That is why you make great parents, Matt and Casey. You will weather all storms together. Thank you for being patient and flexible with me through the power outage, thank you for still making Cora's newborn photos a priority, and thank you for allowing me to join you in Cora's first year. 

Parker's 6 Month Photos | Baby Collection | Cheney, WA

Please oh please make sure you take milestone photos. Case in point, cutie patootie Parker girl. Here are her maternity (remember those awesome cherry tree blossoms) and newborn photos and today her 6 MONTH PHOTOS! Growing so fast and furious, this little one will be chasing down big sister in no time. This is why I love my Baby's First Year collection - we preschedule photos for those key milestones that you know just fly by. I love that Parker's 6 month fell during the Christmas season, such a great opportunity to get those classic photos in front of the tree and with her big sissy.
