​Tiara's 1st birthday party was a BLAST! :) 
Beautiful, colorful, amazing details of her party...Everything was so festive and thoughtful as usual (knowing the mommy)! Warm hugs and laughter of old friends filled the air, the sweet reunion was captured forever in these happy frames. :) Happy 1st Birthday Tiara. You are fearfully and wonderfully made! Much love from all of us :)

Friends and family festivities at PlayHappy Cafe celebrating these cute siblings birthday. Thank you Lizz Quain for referring us to this wonderful family. <3

I was introduced to this lovely couple by my cousin Samuel Sutanto. I am forever grateful that he did. :) 
Cathrine and Danny reminded me a lot of that high school couple you read in comic books. They're whimsical, spontaneous, and they are desperately, head-over-heels in LOVE with each other. It shows evidently from the way they looked at each other, the way Cathrine giggled sheepishly at Danny's joke, and the way Danny carried Cathrine's shoes everywhere. :) 

Shooting them together is like capturing romance in it's rawest form. Natural... passionate...genuinely un-posed. The rest of the world just kinda blurred out around them. There's no better place to start a session than at our favorite Coffee place gem in Seattle: Storyville. This coffee shop kinda paints their love story perfectly. It shows their love for deep conversations, food, and of course warm cups of latte. 

I'm also blessed to be able to make Cathrine and Danny's vision of "timeless, classic, and vintage engagement photos" a reality...by collaborating with Seattle's amazing hair stylist, Audrey Muliawan... and super talented make up artist, Veronica Thamrin :) 

I think all our creative juice just flowed so naturally after that good strong Storyville cups! 
Enjoy these pictures. 

Crystal and Patrick is one of the sweetest couple I've met. Crystal was born in the Caribbean..Belize to be exact. Belize is one of the top destination that me and my husband have always wanted to cross off our bucket list. It has one of the most AMAZING snorkeling and diving spot with it's distinct and one-of-a-kind marine life - the Blue Hole. We bonded instantly over our passionate love towards the Caribbean clear blue seas. 

This couple is now waiting for the arrival of their first baby girl, Bailey. ♥ I cannot believe how many photos I took, that were photo bombed by their big gentle furry dog... Kieva the Akita. The final images turned out amazing. Kieva happens to be one of the best props I've ever had. :)

Congratulations to Crystal and Patrick and big sister Kieva! You all are gonna do amazing.

One fine day when we all fit into a comic strip!! :D
Celebrating little Zach's 4th birthday with the happiest & loveliest people on earth :) 
May your creativity, boldness, and wit soar high....as you venture through this life, untamed. 
Zachie, always remember that you are a superhero in the making! You are stronger than you think, braver than you think, and kinder than you think.
We all love you Zachie!!! <3
