Congratulations, Nicole!

July 17, 2015 by admin | Comments Off

Occasionally, I get a chance to shoot a different kind of senior. Congratulations, Nicole! A recent graduate of Central Washington University, Nicole contacted me to commemorate her college career with a small photo session. Nicole was unable to walk with her classmates, and consequently, had no photo recognition. This is where I came into the picture (no pun intended). I was happy to help her out, and because she was now back at home and had an available schedule, Nicole thought this would be the perfect time to document this exciting time in her life. Thank you, Nicole, for being such a fun and willing participant:)

I wish you all the best in your career plans, Nicole. Stay in touch:)

Mikeala

April 26, 2015 by admin | Comments Off

Congratulations to Mikeala! A beautiful young lady from our great little town of Puyallup. Last weekend I had the honor of photographing Mikeala to document her senior year. If you remember, last weekend we had gorgeous weather, perfect for taking photos in the late afternoon. I met up with Mikeala and her mom at DeCousey Park. I love to shoot here; so many little niches for great backdrops. Mikeala brought her tuba and prom dress for some diversity in her photos. I loved it; great back-lighting with her gorgeous flowing dress, and some interesting reflections in the bell of her tuba. It was a great afternoon!

Congratulations, Mikeala!  I thoroughly enjoyed my time with you. Best wishes on all of our future endeavors.

Please enjoy a few of Mikeala’s senior photos…

Her Favorite Yellow Umbrella

March 27, 2015 by admin | Comments Off

This is Caitrin’s 5th photo session to commemorate her senior year. What we are trying to achieve with this committed senior is a variety of different seasons, weather and locations, as well as honoring her high school sports career. This afternoon, Caitrin was hoping to get some rain/puddle photos where she could show off her bright yellow umbrella. Fortunately for me we did not get caught in a downpour. I hope you enjoy the few shots we got. Stay tuned for Caitrin’s final session sometime in April.

Afternoon with Anna

October 27, 2014 by admin | Comments Off

Last weekend was, I think, our last really nice weekend of the year (weather wise). I was blessed to have a terrific senior session with Anna, who chose to meet me at the Nisqually Wildlife Refuge. This has been a popular location this senior season, and for good reason. There are so many great places to photograph at the refuge. The barns are a favorite for my “girls”. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Anna. As you will see, she is a beautiful young lady, with loads of life and personality. She was so much fun, and willing to try all sorts of poses…my favorite type of model:) Thank you, Anna, for such a lovely and enjoyable afternoon. Blessings on your future.

Love the Longboard

September 9, 2014 by admin | Comments Off

Last week, I had the great pleasure to photograph Jonny for his senior portraits. I had never met Jonny before that afternoon, but I could tell, the minute I saw him, that he was a guy with charisma. He mentioned that he loved to longboard, so, of course, I had to ask if he had is longboard with him. He said it was in the car. “Wanna get it?” I asked him.  I think I surprised him…pleasantly. The look of joy on his face when he came riding down the path on his board was priceless! I love shooting seniors, especially when they are engaged in something they love. We got a few action shots, just for fun, to round out his session. It was a great shoot!

Jonny and Kate, I had a great time with both of you! Thanks for the entertainment:) And I hope you enjoyed your weekend at the Dave Matthews concert!!

Cogratulations Logan! 2014 Puyallup High School Grad

May 11, 2014 by admin | Comments Off

Logan and I met up a couple of weeks ago for his Senior photo shoot at the Puyallup Library and Pioneer Park, downtown Puyallup. Logan is a terrific young man with a love for creative writing (maybe I should have had him write this:). I had a great time with Logan. He is easy going and fun to shoot. I love Logan’s style! Thanks for the great session, Logan. We wish you much joy and success at Western.

Brett-Class of 2014

October 14, 2013 by admin | Comments Off

I had the great honor to photograph Brett this past weekend. What an awesome guy! We had a great time shooting his senior photos in downtown Tacoma near the Museum of Glass and UW Tacoma. Brett is a terrific athlete (this season on the football field) and so fun loving. As you can see from this small sample from his senior session, Brett is all smiles and spreads joy to all he comes in contact with. I can hardly wait ’til we meet up for the second half of his senior session. I am calling it the “stadium shoot”, where we will be concentrating on all things football. Enjoy these few photos of Brett, and stay tuned for round two!

Congratulations, Brett! We wish you the very best for your senior year and all that life will bring you. You truly are a light in this world.

Engagement Session of Dee & Zac

April 28, 2009 by admin | 1 Comment

Dee and Zac are one really cool couple. We had the opportunity to photograph them this last week while they were in town (I think that I have now set a record for getting previews online). We had a great time getting to know them while shooting their pictures around the Museum of Glass in Tacoma, WA. The weather was awesome-we didn’t have to dodge rain showers and bird poo (my friend Michele had some experiences with this one) but we did have one unfortunate accident with doggy doo (please, please, please clean up after your pets!). Gross but no serious harm done.

Dee and Zac will be getting married on September 5 and we are honored to be their photographers. Thanks for a great time time, guys, and enjoy the preview!

Blessings,

Chris

2008 Baby and Children Photographs

April 16, 2009 by admin | Comments Off

Ok, in my first blog I said that I was going to repost all that I had posted in 2008, but I am now finding that it may be too much. So I decided to condense my 2008 baby and children photographs into 1 or 2 posts of my favorites from last year and post them that way. It will be easier for me and it may be easier for you to view.

Whitney – A Professional Model Photography Session

April 16, 2009 by admin | Comments Off

I had the privilege of photographing Whitney, a professional model. She needed some simple shot for a portfolio that she was putting together and I was happy to help. Below are a couple of the photographs that I took of her.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with her and I look forward to doing so again.
