Happy Anniversary to Mary & Anton shown here during their first dance.

It's been such a joy walking out my front door and seeing the variety of spring flowers blooming. This is one of my favorites.

Isn't it exciting to see the first signs of spring? =)

The newlyweds were standing to the side as the best man and maid of honor signed the marriage certificates. I thought this was sweet, them holding hands and her beautiful flowers.

At this wedding all the groomsmen were young sons of the groom, all the bridesmaids were sisters of the bride. I had asked all the bridesmaids to put their arms around the groomsmen for a group photo.

Out of the corner of my eye I saw this and had to quickly photograph him with that priceless expression

I had met with Jason & Brandy once before for an Operation Love Reunited photo shoot when Jason was deploying. I was thrilled when they called me to take some family portraits during his R&R.
Jason reminds me so much of my youngest son, Ryan. Now if only my youngest could find a woman like Brandy, I'd be one happy mom.

The entire family had tee shirts that represented them and I had to laugh when I saw Brandy's shirt "Here I come to save the day!", being a mom to two active boys I'm sure she's had to run in many times to save the day for them. =) Jason wore a GI Joe tee shirt. How fitting for both.
We will be looking forward to photographing Jason's homecoming through the Op: Love program late summer/fall.

With the recent announcement that we would be participating in the Tacoma Metro Parks Bridal Open Houses I thought today's 'Image of the Day' should be something taken at one of the parks here in Tacoma. =)

Our 'Image of the Day' is yet another anniversary, which was yesterday. Congratulations to Amy & Bret!

May your wedding day dreams come true, may you enjoy every bit of life together! We at Family Affair Photography wish you both a Happy Anniversary!

Today's 'Image of the Day' was supposed to be posted last month. Since it didn't get posted then we will share it today! =)

This is Robert & Heather who celebrated an anniversary last month. Congratulations and I wish you many more years of happiness and love!

Baby 'A' [Tacoma Baby Portrait Photographer]

Sonny and I once again went to visit one of the sweetest baby girls around, baby 'A'. This time it was for her 6 month portrait session which is part of our 'As Baby Grows' package.


Even though this is 'As Baby Grows" portrait session, mom and dad are very much a part of babies growth and development and we like to include parents in some of the portraits. =)


Isn't she a ray of sunshine in the photo? Love that smile!


"Mommy & Daddy ... I'm right here you know!"


"This is my best angle for the camera."



We find the babies are much more relaxed when they are in their own environment with their own toys and of course with mom and dad close by. We look forward to seeing baby 'A' at 9 months of age! You can view some photos from her 3 month session here: Baby A @ 3 months.
Family Affair Photography invites family and friends to view the full gallery here : Baby A

Flower girls and ring bearers are always so much fun at weddings. They are unpredictable, charming and yes, at times even frustrating! =) I LOVE them because you know something will happen.

This particular little flower girl didn't want anything to do with getting a photograph taken with the bride. Just as an FYI, yes, she finally cooperated and had a photo taken.

02.10.10 [Tacoma Photographer]

This portrait is of my daughter, Kimberly. Today is her birthday so I decided to use this as our 'Image of the Day'. Happy Birthday Kim!

02.09.10 [Puyallup Wedding Photographer]

Every now and then we get the opportunity to take a photo of everyone who attended the wedding. Liberty Theater in Puyallup offers such opportunity. It's a great way to remember everyone who attended your wedding. =)

02.08.10 [Las Vegas Photographer ]

One evening we decided to watch the Bellagio Fountains up close. Everyone was lined up in the front so we planted ourselves off to the side looking toward Caesar's Palace. The last time I had been Vegas I stayed at Bally's with a room looking out on the fountains and it was a spectacular view from above and at street level.

02.05.10 [Puyallup Photographer]

We are finally able to resume the 'Image of the Day' and start getting this blog ready for 2010 weddings, portraits and Op Love sessions previews.

Our 'Image of the Day' was taken at the Puyallup Fair when Sara Evans and Josh Gracin preformed there. I had a great seats and got a few photographs to preserve my memories of the concert. =)

01.22.10 [ Washington Photographer ]

This was taken near a favorite camping site of ours. This is a small section of the spring run off 'waterfall'.

All of us at Family Affair Photography wish everyone a spectacular weekend!

The Rose Garden at Point Defiance Park provides a beautiful backdrop for bridal portraits and wedding ceremonies.
