I’m from the PNW, so a horizon without a mountain in it just feels so empty! I could see Mt Rainier from my childhood window, and now that I live in Portland, I love seeing Mt Hood and how it changes throughout the year. Here’s a few images of mountains...

Two visions came to life last summer! Remember that dreamy nature maternity photography session with Kaitlyn? Well, when I did the model call, there were so many great responses that I decided to do two sessions, and selected Ali as the second model for my theme. I...

A few weeks ago I traveled home to the Seattle area for a weekend to visit family and attend two graduations. It was a fun, relaxing weekend, made even more wonderful by the jaw-dropping scenery. Living in New York City, I tend not to actively think about the...

A month ago, for spring break, my boyfriend and I traveled to Costa Rica for a week. It was his first time in Central America and my second (I visited Guatemala over Christmas last year). We went to three distinct areas of the country and saw lovely landscapes...
