meet abigail, jill, grace and jeff…jeff was the best man in marisa & adam’s wedding that i shot last summer and their ‘thank you’ gift to him was a session with me!  jill was 9 mos pregnant at the time, so they thought they’d wait until baby abigail was a little bit older and the weather was a little bit warmer.  we had an amazing day and this family is just as amazing…

katherine and ryan met me over at richmond beach for the engagement session recently – i hadn’t been there before and i must say it is a hidden ‘beach treasure’!  although it was cloudy, the whole park seemed empty and the view from the top is quite yummy.  looking forward to k & r’s burke museum wedding later this year!

dawn and dave met up with me last weekend for some photos and laughs over at gasworks park.  dave asked dawn to marry him on the hill there…we then bopped over to the fremont brewery where their love of beer is only shadowed by their love for each other.
