Brooke



Brooke! Some people come into your life with a burst of energy- this was true for you. You are radiant and busting with energy. Brooke is crazy busy with the Tacoma Youth Symphony and her quartet -playing cello and lighting up the world. She is good friends with Megan {see earlier posts} and Tessa {senior rep} Brooke and Megan just graduated from Stadium High School and Brooke, Tessa and Kaitlin are all three in the Tacoma Youth Symphony. We had the chance to have two photo session- one in a beautiful garden and the other at the sound. These two photographs are from the sound. I love her orange dress her mom Lila made for Brooke's upcoming performance. Talent definitely runs in the family. Brooke- I need a list of the times your playing this summer so I can come hang out and hear you do your stuff. I know it will be a treat. You make me smile and smile.

Olivia

Every moment hold a gift. Olivia is crazy about her mom- they are playing and smiling together.
The flower tickles her nose and she delights. So much bound up in this expression, this moment.
Happy Birthday Olivia. You are a jewel full of life and all that is beautiful and good.

Welcome Cara Ann

Say hello to sweet baby Cara Ann- She was born May 9th at 11:34 weighing 7 lbs 12 oz and was 19 3/4" long. What an amazing blessing. Mom and dad have fallen hard as we do with a precious new life. What a team they make with smooth hand offs and bunches of hugs and kisses. Life is so amazing good. Congratulations to Allison and Rick, she is amazing! I placed a stork carrier photograph of Cara on my website under itsy bitsy ones. She is actually hanging from the tree in a little knitted carrier. Darling and fun! Thanks to Rick for helping to scoop Cara up several times to get her positioned just right. You gotta take a look! www.amomentintimebycarla.com


Twin Brothers- twice the joy! | Tacoma Child Photographer




I was invited to photograph twin boys {age 2 weeks} with a few other photographers. Here is one of my favorite portraits of the sweet little brothers. Tami had the idea to snuggle the babies together in the wonderful green blanket she just got. I added an antique finish to the photograph for a nostalgic feeling. This one was worth the wait...as we waited quit a while for the boys to fall asleep. I know mom is going love the photographs we created during our time together. Mom was so sweet with her little boys , keeping very busy with feeding and changing and feeding and changing. Tanner and Braden were the best little guys. They filled my heart with their little coos and sighs. I was in aha watching them individually and together. I think blogger is displaying their skin tones a bit weak.

Look who just turned two!

Full of energy and smiles is my cutest little friend, Seneca. She has a thing for bubbles {I do too} and her cougar - little stuffed guy. She is playing a game of peek-a-boo with mom and guess who she just saw. I'm glad I have a bit of a hill because I was running around trying to catch up with this quick one! I could just eat her up she is so cute.

sonora lavender








Four of my favorite lavender photographs from my trip to California to visit my family. We were invited to tour and visit an olive farm and olive field. The lavender is just about to pop. You can hear the bees at work. The afternoon was just beautiful. We relaxed and talked about the beautiful country side and all the possibilities. This was a wonderful treat! Joyce- How did I do with the view?

Sara


Talk about beautiful eyes! This is Sara from AHS. My one and only rep for Auburn. I met Sara last year while I was photographing her sister Katie for her senior portraits. This photograph was taken at Dash Point- it was super sunny out so we had to hang close to the trees and rocks.

Now you will be starting an {old} new trend- How cute is this- I had a wonderful time working with you. Hope you love your photographs for years to come and they are just what you wanted.


This is my favorite look! Love, love, love this photograph of you. Just that moment, slight breeze and a touch of joy-makes for an awesome capture.


Happy Birthday to you...and many more. How does it feel to be 18 and just about to graduate? Two amazing celebrations in a span of a week or so. You have the whole world in front of you. Have a great celebration. I love this cute little spicy look you have here in the black dress with your beautiful long, dark hair. Dream big and then some.
