Fall Family Photos (Seattle Arboretum)

Posted in Family

Fall is in the air, and the leaves are starting to turn beautiful hues of gold and orange that brighten up our gray Pacific Northwest skies. It’s time to grab your fall boots, plaid shirts, sweaters, scarves, & pumpkin spice lattes, and get those family photos done. October is my busiest time of year AND by far my favorite time of year. There’s nothing more fun than seeing my favorite clients and their kiddos for their annual frolic in the leaves! Message me today to set up your session. toni@bellanovaphoto.com.

Oh, I just loved snuggling with sweet baby O. and capturing these images for her family. Check out all that hair. Baby will never be lacking in the luscious locks department! 😉

FALL FAVORITES

Posted in Family

Fall is in the air.The mornings are getting crisper. The leaves are slowly starting to turn from green to gold. I’m getting excited for sweaters & boots, pumpkin patches, & chai tea lattes. I love this time of year! And I love fall photos and capturing the gorgeous scenery we have here in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. This is my favorite photo from last October. Can’t believe I haven’t shared it on my blog before. Just looking at it gets me inspired for this years sessions. Bring on the falling leaves. Fall portrait season is finally here!

South Africans in Sammamish {Sammamish Family Photographer}

Posted in Family

Blue skies, golden setting sun, and a gorgeous field of purple lupines; I couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful Pacific Northwest day to photograph my lovely friend Constanze and her family. Thanks for letting me capture these memories for you. Cheers to my favorite South African family in Sammamish!

Lily&Mark {Seattle Maternity Photographer}

Posted in Baby, Family, Maternity

When couples contact me about maternity sessions, a lot of them are nervous. I always hear from them, “We’re not very photogenic”, or, “Neither of us are comfortable in front of the camera, but we really want photos of this special time in our lives”. Then a funny thing happens. I meet them in person for their photos and we chat and joke and have fun and they begin to relax -and by the end- everyone is telling me how much they enjoyed their session.

I love being able to put couples at ease and capture beautiful images for them. And that’s exactly what happened with Lily and Mark. We captured so many great images from their session at Golden Gardens Park (and I think they even had a little fun during the process.) I’m so excited for them to welcome their baby girl in May!
