Old School House

Last night my daughter and I were booking our tickets to go to DC to visit family.  Which reminded me I had a folder of photos that I had never edited from the last time I was in the Baltimore - DC area.

This old school house was something I drove past and could only take the photo from the car as there was no off road parking.  Luckily the road was quiet and I could attempt to get a shot before I had to move again. =)

Hole in One?

What good sports Lauren & Walter were!  They were willing to lay down in the cool grass for a shot of their rings on the golf ball.  Golf being their sport of choice. =)  I heard from Lauren a couple of days ago that this was one of their personal favorite photos.

Rock My World

This was actually an 'oops' photo.  I hit the shutter release as I was readjusting my position.  Despite it being a lopsided oops shot, I kind of like it!  Nikki & Jay liked this photo, guess that's what really counts in the end! =)

Me & My Pet

This month's special is "Me & My Pet".  Be sure to schedule your session before the end of the month when the special goes away!  You check out the details here:  Monthly Special  This special gets two paws up from our fur friends.

Olympic Game Farm

         

I know the main attraction at the Olympic Game Farm is the bears, elk and bison among others.  However, she caught my attention as she stood amongst the poppies.

Dawn & David ~ Tacoma Family Portrait

 
                



            

           

We recently had the pleasure of meeting Dawn, David and their two beautiful children at Point Defiance Park for a family portrait session. 
It's not to late to book your family portrait session at a park of your choice!

Tesh & Steve ~ Newcastle Wedding

          
Doesn't Tesh look like a Hollywood star!  This wasn't even a posed shot, she was in her dressing room watching her bridesmaids.
         


Steve had everyone laughing or holding back laughter.  At one point I heard Tesh say during the ceremony "this is one of the reasons I love him, he makes me laugh" (or something along those lines).

The candles, the flowers, the up-lighting and all the special touches gave the reception a romantic and elegant look.

My Soldier & My Pet

        

I saw this photo of Misty and Joe and thought this would be a good photo for today as it leads into our monthly special! =)  This months special is "Me & My Pet".  To learn more about our specials check here:  Monthly Specials.

Also as a note to our  Op: Love customers, due to current circumstances I have very limited time frames available for homecomings.  I regret this as homecomings are my favorite to photograph.   We are still working hard to meet as many of our Op Love requests! =)

Jump n Jive

             

A couple of guests at an event were jumping around, dancing for the camera.  Everyone was out to have fun!   Family Affair Photography offers 2 or more photographers to fully cover your event.

A Grand Entrance

             

The newlyweds make their grand entrance into the reception hall and now the party begins!   Chris & Michelle had their reception at The Varsity Grill in Tacoma.       

That Tickles!

I loved working with Kelly, she wasn't letting anything ruin her day.  She smiled and laughed the entire day, even when slightly uncomfortable with all the attention and primping she was receiving from her friends. =)

Family Tree

Trees make great 'props' for posing families.  This was taken in Gig Harbor by the waterfront on a foggy morning.
