Sneak Peek… {Birth Story} Bryson

Hurry | Everett Birth Photographer

“Hurry” was I all heard from Dad. I sputtered out “I’m in Lake Stevens. I am 30 minutes away! I will make it. I WILL.” Then I white knuckle drove from the trestle down to Evergreen Hospital averaging around 75-80 and praying not to get stopped by police. After all, it was 11:45PM on a Friday night.

I made it to the hospital, ran through the parking lot, ran through the hospital, RAN to the maternity ward, RAN down the hallway past nurses with a knowing smile and made it to room 2123. Took a deep breath. Did a little knock and called out for dad.

“She’s here!”

The ‘she’ was me, thankfully. Not the baby. But boy, did we cut it close. We knew mom was going to be fast but NOT 2 hours and 40 minutes fast. But the Lord’s timing is always perfect and things ended up just as they were supposed to!

Baby Bryson has been eagerly anticipated for this family whom you have seen before. Remember these sessions? Bryson’s maternity session, the fall family session where the pregnancy was announced, and the family as three last year and the year before. And now? Now is his birth story. Next will be his newborn session in the next week. Enjoy!

 

Sneak Peek… {family} Old Friends

Oh, Ella | Mukilteo Family Photographer

 I had the pleasure of photographing one of my oldest (maybe I should say ‘long time’ friend? ‘Oldest’ makes me feel…. well. Old.) friends and his family a few weeks back. The star of the family is undoubtedly Miss Ella. She is three. She is feisty. She is… a wee little diva who loves princesses and dress up and despises the camera? Yep, yep and YEP. She definitely made me work for the smiles, but her session was a success none the less!

Another baby has grown up and hit the one year mark! This is the third time we’ve seen little lass Kiernan; first as an adorable baby bump, then as an amazingly beautiful newborn. Today she is back as a sweet tempered, almost walking on her own one year old. During her session, the weather was great, she was great, and even mommy and daddy were great! All around success if you ask me.

Spring has finally shown up in Seattle and I am all aflutter with one amazing family session after another. Up tonight is a baby planner pulling in for his 6 month session. Remember Kellan’s 3 month session? Well, prepare to have your socks knocked off because this little man is back and better than ever!

We met up last Sunday at my new favorite field in Mill Creek and he was a complete gem for over an hour. Mommy Kayti really rocked it out with fabulous wardrobe choices and daddy Fred brought on the baby smiles. Team work at its best for sure. Check out their extra big sneak peek below!

Sneak Peek… {maternity} Waiting on Bryson

Back in early November, I had the pleasure of photographing my wonderful friends, their daughter and future son. The photo shoot was wonderful fun and we got to break the news to all their friends and family about the latest pregnancy via photos from their fall family session. They’ve also been seen on my blog before last year and the year before.

The latest session, and the sneak peek we are debuting today, is from Sydney’s maternity session for baby Bryson. We had some perfect spring weather and a nice hour together making some more memories for their family. I get the honor of photographing baby B’s birth and then newborn photos in a few weeks. Let’s just hope he stays still and cooks a little longer so the baby shower I’m throwing this Friday isn’t missing the guest of honor!

Yes. A pocket FULL of smiles… or at least that is where I am assuming Miss Ella hides all of her grins.  And, she only doles them out for m&m’s. 2 FOR 1 m&m’s at that. Smart little stinker she is! I met up with her and her parents last weekend, in the glorious SUN, for an evening family session. Mom, dad and I had a blast. The dogs did great. Ella… did her own thing most of the time BUT she did not defeat me! Check her out below:

Look at him grow! | Seattle Baby Photographer

We’ve seen him twice before; during his  completely breathtaking maternity session and again for for his tearless newborn session. Baby Luke is back and a big five months old! I met his parents at the University of Washington Quad area one Saturday morning to take advantage of the glorious cherry blossoms. Thankfully, we met relatively early because it seems that the cherry blossom trees at UW are one popular destination!

Sneak Peek… {growing} Sloan

Sloan v2.0 | Newcastle Baby Photographer

Sloan is back and better than ever! We’ve seen her a few times; during her mama’s GORGEOUS maternity session at Discovery Park in Seattle and then again for her sweet newborn session. She’s back today and is five months old and all kinds of amazing. And cute. And chubby.

And long suffering.

We put this baby girl in 6? 7? different outfits and sets. Her mama is MY kind of client. All kinds of frothy, frilly clothing, themes, props, and ideas await me at their home. I. LOVE. IT. Everything is a little over the top and completely adorable. Just like Miss Sloan. Check her out!

Colston | Newcastle Newborn Photographer

Meet snuggle bug Colston, the firstborn of Kristen and Franco (whom you’ve seen before at their ah-maz-ing  maternity session,) and little brother to a teeny little furball. Colston had his newborn session on his eleventh day of life and he was a sweet little snuggler who definitely appreciated the ninety degree room his session took place in. Kristen was also with me in the ninety degree room for three hours and was a real sport about it. I’d have to say all the sweat and little accidents from baby C were worth it. Check out his images below!

Sneak Peek… | {6 months old} Kingston

Big, big boy | Everett Baby Photographer

6 months have passed already? I can hardly believe it! First, the maternity session. Then, a newborn session. Now, he is back for a rolly, polly celebration of his half birthday! Kingston took a wonderful early morning nap for his session last Saturday and was more than happy to be poked, prodded, moved, propped and changed for about 35 minutes. Then, this little chunker got a little sleepy and was more than ready for snuggles.

I can’t wait to see him again soon! Enjoy!!
