Oh, how I loved photographing sweet baby Annie. She was so calm and good-natured. Just an absolute dream!
Annie's baby shower theme was "Under The Sea" so we wanted to incorporate that idea into her session.
Annie's mom is an amazing makeup artist for NARS, so we just had to sneak in a shot or two with one of mom's makeup brushes!
And, of course, we couldn't leave out Emma (the first "baby" of the family). She was so sweet and gentle with Annie. They are sure to be fast friends when Annie grows up.

Emma has always been Autumn and Chris’ “baby”, so it only seemed fitting that she helped them announce the news that they are expecting their first child! It was so fun to be in on the surprise, but boy was it hard to keep such an exciting secret. I’m glad the cat’s out of the bag now. Congratulations, guys. I can’t wait to meet the newest addition to the Snapper family in January!

During yesterday’s engagement session in Elma, the couple I was photographing started laughing hysterically and I couldn’t figure out what was so darn funny. Then, out of the corner of my eye, I noticed some strange movement. I looked over and saw their dog, Katie, blissfully rolling around on her back in the leaves looking ridiculous as ever. I so wish I had this moment on video. It was quite the sight. I guess dogs love fall, too!

A few weeks ago I had a fun fall session with Maggie, her husband, Chris, and their big old basset hound, Farley, at Marymoor Park in Redmond. Fall was a little late this year and even though we didn’t have colorful piles of leaves to play in, we pretty much had the run of the dog park… and that was just fine by Farley who enjoyed running and sniffing e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g in sight. With a bit of luck, and a few dog treats, we even got Farley to pose a bit. Special thanks to Maggie’s friend, Rebecca, who wrangled Farley so I could get a few shots of Maggie and Chris alone!
This one just makes me smile. 🙂
