The Redigers | Hovander Park Extended Family Photos

As your family expands and scatters, it’s SO HARD to get everyone together. The Redigers had a rare opportunity to not only gather everyone in one place, but to also get family photos taken at the same time (quick, someone go buy a lotto ticket)! We got a gorgeous day out at Hovander Park in…

The Carlsons | Hovander Park Family Photos

There are some people you encounter in life who are inspiring just because of the authentic, deep-rooted person that they naturally are. Jess is one of those people for me. She lives her ordinary life with an extraordinary heart, with a depth of love and joy that is open to everyone she comes into contact…

The Richardsons | Hovander Park Family Mini

I love my family mini sessions at Hovander Park – there is so much to explore, and with kids this age a half an hour is often the most that they’re up for. I have been so lucky to photograph this super sweet family from the beginning – all the way back to Cody &…

The Hopkins | Hovander Park Family Mini

My friend Kristen, who was also my son’s amazing kindergarten teacher, was expecting her second bundle of incredible energy a couple of months ago and I jumped at the chance to take them all out to Hovander Park after school for a short family/maternity mini photo sesson. I love this family!

The Bushnells | Fall Family Photos

I have had the great privilege of personally knowing and being able to photograph this beautiful family from the time they first moved to Bellingham, and brought home two of their now-five kids waaaay back in 2008. Today, they have one kid in the Navy; one just about to start in-person classes at Gonzaga; one…

The Mitchells | Hovander Family Mini

Oh my goodness, this little girl’s faces!! She could make anyone fall in love with her. Sometimes with young kids, a 20-30 minute session is all that they’re going to stand for; fortunately, it’s all we need to frame up the story of what your lives are right in this moment!

Ziesldorf | Hovander Family Mini

Two little girls, flower dresses, fall leaves on the ground and a rustic wooden fence = romantic family photos. Oh wait, did I mention the incredible foggy background we happened to get that morning? Make that romantic family photo PERFECTION.

I love family photos with young children, but I love it even more when it’s with my tribe; and these are my people. Lovely fall color, goofy kids and good friends!

Hovander Park is beautiful in the fog! And a lovely creamy backdrop for this kid’s adorable cheeky grin. Thanks for bringing mom & dad along for family photos, little scamp!

The Osborns & Then Some | Tennant Lake Family Photos

Your family is your most valuable asset in this life; related or chosen, they are the people you cherish the most when it comes right down to it. When my families want to include their other close family members in their annual photo session, it adds such an incredible dynamic to the energy and emotion…

Baby Pudasaini | Tennant Lake Maternity Photos

This gorgeous family is adding one more rambunctious ball of joy soon, and we caught the perfect last light of the day for their maternity photos at Tennant Lake on the backside of Hovander Park.
