"I believe the nicest and sweetest days are not those on which anything very splendid or wonderful or exciting happens but just those that bring simple little pleasures, following one another softly, like pearls slipping off a string.” 
― L.M. Montgomery

As I approached the front porch, I knew I wanted to shoot Elodie through that window.  The light coming through the trees and the gossamer curtains were calling to me.  It turns out we spent quite a bit of time playing in those curtains the following hour.

Play was key for this in-home lifestyle session at the home of Rachel, Tye and Elodie, Aged one year to perfection.  She loved when here daddy flipped her upside down, playing with her mama on the bed for snuggles, and her newly minted skill of walking in the yard.

The family also had a special red chair, passed down for generations that they wanted captured int their South Seattle home.  Red turned out to be a theme for our shoot.  The chair, Elodie's hair bow, her horse's bandana, and their front steps.  

With a one year old in an in-home lifestyle session, sometimes a trip to the fenced yard is all the adventure we need to capture their life, their home, and their family.

It is truly an honor to be invited into clients homes, having them trust me with their memories, and getting to see their true connection!
