Tricities, WA Photographer: One of my favorite things about being a photographer is getting to be part of the most important moments and seasons of my clients’ lives. Kaelyn + Gerardo reached out to me about a year ago for their maternity session to capture this season of life as first-time parents! We had such an amazing time at their maternity session, and I recently got to meet their baby girl Sophia for their first session as a family of 3! Fun fact – Kaelyn actually won this session when I did a giveaway! I love doing giveaways on Instagram (follow me here!) and for the VIP’s on my email list (which you can sign up for here)!

Tips for Your Session – Tricities, WA Photographer

We planned the Mendoza family’s session during a weekday evening. While I know it can be harder to plan for a weekday evening session, it is always worth it!! Locations see a lot less traffic during the week, which makes for a more relaxed and fun session. You don’t have to worry about people being in the background. We have less distractions so little ones like Sophia can stay focused looking at the camera. Plus, a lot of Tricities WA photographers use the same locations. While I’m always location scouting for lesser known locations, doing your session during the week gives us a better chance of using the best spots at any given location!

Need family photos?

If you didn’t know, I primarily am a senior and wedding photographer. While I do photograph families, I don’t normally have availability for full family sessions during the year. My solution to still being able to serve my families? Mini sessions! I launch mini session 2 – 3 times a year.
