Welcome back ladies

Phil — Fri, 18 Nov 2011 10:45:20 +0000

We first met Abigail and Grace some three years ago when they first came into the studio with their extended family. Now they are back in a big way with so much personality and energy. It was such a delight to spend a couple hours with them and their adorable Mum – Elizabeth. We have been in the process of preparing some beautiful prints for Mum, but until we can get those to her here are a few favorites.

Can’t wait to see the extended family later this year too.

Jake the cat

Phil — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 16:48:10 +0000

Last week we got assigned a very project – go photograph Jake. Jake is one heck of a special cat, but has been going through a really rough time of it recently as he has kitty lymphoma.

His Mum – Sam asked us to come over and photograph Jake along with Elwood, Solomon and husband Eric. There are lots more photographs to look at but Amy and I wanted to post a few of the adorable and handsome Jake now for Mum to see.

The latest reports are that Jake is doing a little better so we are all thinking of good kitty thoughts.

Elizabeth’s new headshots – please vote

We have been incredibly fortunate to spend a bunch of time with Elizabeth recently. We first met her some three years ago when she came in with the whole family. As with anyone she has had lots of change in the last few years and one of the new exciting things is that she has just got a new job! To help celebrate she needed some new business headshot’s and these two were her favorites.

The question now is which one ? The one with the brick background or the one with the window. Votes please.

Sneak Peak – Baby Ava on the mirror

We have been totally bad at updating our blog with recent shoots. Here is a quick post from yesterday’s baby Ava session, with her now a beautiful 7 months old. Wow doesn’t time fly. So much fun with Terry and Michee, just love those guys!

Baby Shea – less than 24 hours old

Phil — Sun, 03 Jul 2011 04:22:28 +0000

Going to the hospital to photograph a newborn baby of less than 24 for hours is pretty special enough. But when’s it’s the baby son of someone who has worked for you for the last nine months and someone that you have grown to love, respect and adore it becomes an especially event.

So it’s my honor to introduce Shea Vedder, born at 1.23am this morning weighing in a 6lb 8oz at Swedish Ballard in Seattle. Proud Mum – Erin and Dad – Joe are doing very well and incredibly excited. Erin’s parents arrived this afternoon as well and are in full support.

I’m so excited for you guys.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Newborn baby photographs of the beautiful Ava

Alice — Sat, 07 May 2011 04:59:54 +0000

Over the last few weeks we had a very special guest: Baby Ava! After our Maternity shoot with Michee and Terry, and Phil’s visit to the hospital for the under-24-hour-old shoot, we finally met the gorgeous little girl here at the studio.

The girls gushed as she yawned and smiled, made faces and wiggled around. Michee is truly a radiant new mother and as we looked through several adorable baby outfits for her shoot, it was clear that tiny Ava is already a fashionable little diva! And then just look at that proud Dad, Terry.

Love you guys, Alice

Come Dog Lovers, come all

At the Fine Art Photography Studio we invite and encourage you to bring in your fluffy pups for a family photo shoot. Whether it’s a trusty Golden Retriever, a spunky Jack Russell, or a cuddly mutt, capture the love between you and your pooch.

For many of you, those furry bundles of love are, in a way, your children too, so feel free to bring them into the studio for a session featuring the entire family! With Spring….. almost ….. here we wanted to give you a quick reminder to bring your special family member with you.

In the words of Cat Stevens, “I love my dog as much as I love you!”

Photographs of the beautiful newborn Ava – less than 24 hours old

Phil — Thu, 24 Mar 2011 21:27:34 +0000

We first photographed Michee and Terry for their maternity session back in January, and now, just two months later, we had the pleasure of visiting the couple at the hospital this morning to welcome their beautiful new arrival to the world, baby Ava.

Emitted into Swedish on Michee’s own birthday, Terry called us in excitement announcing that baby Ava was on her way! The adorable little gift was born March 23rd, 2011 at 3:26pm, weighing in at 7 lbs 15oz and is 20 inches long .

By the time I got their this morning Ava was totally awake and alert. Mum and Dad were still recovering but enjoying every moment of their darling little girl. It was such a special time and I’m so honored to be part of her first day on this planet. We can’t wait to see her back in the studio frequently over the coming year, with the "Baby’s First Year" package.

Beautifully fun maternity photographs

Over the last few months we have had several incredibly fun projects with our family and business clients. A true highlight was the delightful Michee and her handsom hubby Terry, who came to us for their maternity session. It was such a blast! Here are some highlights.

Don’t they look incredible? : )
