Monroe Family Photo Session, June Bug photography

Thursday, September 24, 2015

Monroe Family Photo Session, June Bug photography

I met this family a few months ago for their little lady’s 3 month session, and I was THRILLED that they wanted to have a family session at their beautiful property in Monroe, WA. I knew as soon as I pulled into their driveway that the location was going to be PERFECT. They had a beautiful plum tree, overflowing with giant, ripe plums. Their home is stunning, and I instantly fell in love with their gorgeous front porch (complete with rocking chairs!)

I just love photographing families, and I love to capture the connection between family members. Some photos from our session are posed, some are candid, but all show the love this family has for each other. My heart is full knowing this family has captured this moment in time, and will be able to share these images for generations to come!

Milestone Baby Sessions, 9 Months. Snohomish baby photography.

This happy little man has grown SO MUCH in the last 9 months! I cannot wait to see him again in just a few more month for his cake smash!! I mentioned to mom that he looks the same as he did at his 6 month session..just bigger! So I had to go back and compare a photo from his 6 month session to Saturday’s 9 month session. Isn’t he adorable!? I am so lucky I get to see this family every few months…I am hoping they keep coming this frequently until he’s 18! Ha!

Milestone sessions in Baby’s first year are always so much fun. I just love getting to know my families over the year, and it is such a wonderful collection of memories to have gorgeous images from birth to baby’s first birthday!

Mukilteo Lighthouse Park Family Session

I adore this family. I worked with them for their little guy’s newborn session, and I am so happy that they wanted to work with me again for a family session at Mukilteo Lighthouse Park over the weekend. I am so in love with the location…not so in love with the HOARDS OF PEOPLE THERE!! Had to get creative to make sure there weren’t any photo bombs. smile emoticon Here are a few of my favorites from the session

I really enjoy family sessions, as it allows me the opportunity to capture connections between the family. Some of the images will be posed, some candid, and all of them will show the love your family has for each other.

Mukilteo Lighthouse park an amazing location for family portraits. There are so many fantastic natural backdrops, a beautiful beach, adorable white historic buildings, a lighthouse, beautiful gardens, trees. The only downside is working around all the other families and photographers enjoying the beautiful setting!

Snohomish newborn photographer, June Bug Photography.

Thursday, September 24, 2015

I am going to combine two sessions in this post, since this family came in TWICE IN ONE MONTH!

Our first meeting was for a 2nd birthday photo session, and it was awesome! Then, a few short weeks later, we had a newborn session for their baby brother. This family is simply adorable, and I loved every moment I spent with them. I am crossing my fingers that they keep coming back for baby’s milestone sessions!

This birthday boy is 2 years old, and simply adorable. He brought his beloved monkey, and we had a great time in the studio. I have decided to start having families bring in a favorite toy/stuffy so I can give kiddos a keepsake photo of it!! I just love the idea of kiddos having a professional photo of their favorite stuffed animal.

I am hoping that by this time next year, most of my workload will be photographing newborns. I have definitely found my calling, and I just adore newborn sessions. Don’t get me wrong, I will keep doing family sessions, and milestone sessions (I LOVE THOSE TOO) but I am excited about the prospect of working while both my kids are in school during the week, and having my weekends back to spend with my family!

Bothell Landing Family Session, June Bug photography

Thursday, September 24, 2015

Here is a recent Bothell Landing Family Session.

I just love when I get to work with repeat clients! This family is so much fun to work with, and I get such a kick out of each of their personalities. The brothers are hilarious, and spent the session trying to make their mom crazy, and little sister is along for the ride. She is so gorgeous, and EVERYONE wants to be her favorite. Here is my favorite of all of them together. So sweet.

I really enjoy family sessions, as it allows me the opportunity to capture connections between the family. Some of the images will be posed, some candid, and all of them will show the love your family has for each other.

Bothell landing is an amazing location for family portraits. There are so many fantastic natural backdrops, a beautiful wood bridge, tons of small old buildings, trees. The only downside is working around all the other families and photographers enjoying the beautiful setting!

Family Session, 3 Month Milestone Session.

Thursday, September 24, 2015

Here is a recent Family Session (ok, so not THAT recent…but I am getting caught up!)

This sweet little baby has EXTREME acid reflux, and at 3 months old, is so uncomfortable when she’s not eating/upright. We had to get creative to come up with ways to keep her content and comfortable, as she is not yet sitting on her own. Big brother was a ball of energy, and so adorable. I will admit that I haven’t sweat this much during a session EVER! Such as fun, sweet family. Here are a few of my favorites from the session:

Cake Smash, First Birthday Photo Session

Thursday, September 24, 2015

Cake smash sessions are one of my very favorites! It is such a fun way to celebrate a HUGE milestone (for baby AND mom and dad!!) I pretty much giggle through the entire session, and baby ALWAYS has fun. The best part? I do all the clean up.

Cake smash sessions are fun, messy, and adorable. We typically start out with typical portraits, in a cute birthday outfit. We will then strip baby down, and bring out the cake. The SMASH part of the session is entirely lead by baby, and it can last anywhere from 5 minutes to 25 minutes. Some babies gently and delicately taste test the cake before deciding to move on, some completely destroy the cake..but whatever they choose to do, its adorable. I just love how baby’s personality really comes out during the smash, and we capture every moment. I have had babies SIT on the cake, throw the cake, face plant into the cake.

Finally, we finish with a fun filled “bath” session. We clean baby up, then set up a fun bubble bath and I capture baby’s joy with the bubbles and warm water. Splashing is a must.

I love to create slideshows from the cake smash images, as it is such a great way to tell the story of the day. I hope you enjoy this little video!

This little guy is simply PERFECT. You might recognize mom and dad from their recent maternity session…and they are my FIRST family to try out my new “Baby’s First Year” package (that means I get to see them a LOT this year, which is awesome because they are so much fun!). Mom is stunning, and I needed a wide angle lens to get both of dad’s giant biceps into frame! Its no surprise that these two made an adorable little boy, and it was so fun to meet him. I am already looking forward to seeing them all again in the next few months. My baby plan packages include several mini sessions in between the newborn session and the culminating cake smash session at one year! I couldn’t narrow down my favorites, because I love them all. But here are a few of my MOST favorite:

First Birthday Cake Smash Photo session, Snohomish County June Bug Photography

First Birthday Cake Smash Photo session, Snohomish County June Bug Photography

I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned this before, but I LOVE CAKE SMASHES! I spend the entire time giggling over how adorable the birthday boy/girl is and how inquisitive they are at this age. Typically, my cake smashes happen in my studio (in Snohomish, very near Mill Creek). I usually start out with portraits of the birthday boy/girl, family shots, then move to the cake. We let the cake smash play out (sometimes baby LOVES it, sometimes not so much..) and we end with a warm, sudsy bubble bath. Smiles all around!!

Help me wish this little beauty a HAPPY BIRTHDAY! She turns ONE today, and we celebrated with a giant cake smash. She was a total natural in front of the camera (mom takes AWESOME pictures of her each month), and beyond sweet. Big brothers came along to cheer her on, and they are all as sweet and handsome as could be. Such a sweet, beautiful family. Here are a few of my favorites:
