The Heithaus Family | Olympic Sculpture Park

The very sweet Heithaus family braved a windy Sunday at the Olympic Sculpture Park in Seattle.  I am so thankful to have spent the afternoon with these folks.  It was precious to see how much Chevy the pup showed such love for his baby brother!  

Jon and Mark - Wedding Day, Whidbey Island, W

I had the beautiful honor of photographing Jon and Mark's wedding earlier this year, and I would love to share some of the photos with you.  These two gorgeous men sure know how to throw a celebration.  An intimate gathering on Whidbey Island, WA State with lovely people and delicious food, wine, and music.  We may have hit some bouts of rain throughout the day, but the sun eventually made its presence known towards the evening--and what a fun evening it was!  Currently, the newlyweds are on their honeymoon in Europe, and I'm sure they are enjoying their special time together.

8th grade film+stills

​Working with 8th graders is so much fun!  These kids are just really cool.  They are at the age in which they are still youngsters (at least to us parents!), yet they are growing at a rate faster than we can keep up with.  Social media, gangly arms and legs, braces and retainers, sweet and awkward...  We want to hold them tight and keep them little forever, but the reality is that we have to give them room grow, discover, and find their place in this beautiful world.  Like their toddler years when they padded around the house with uneasy steps, these kids are ready to take big, confident leaps as they enter high school next year.  What an exciting time!

​Thank you for such a fun day, you guys (Lauren, Mallie, Ryan, and Theo)!  You make me smile--ok, and a little teary--whenever I watch this.  You're amazing!

​I am currently booking 8th grade film+still sessions before the school year gets out.  Or if you have another special milestone coming up,  please feel free to drop me a note from my Contact Me page any time, thanks!

the kozu family film+stills

​I really want to share this with you.  This family is so cute.  I had the pleasure of photographing mom while she was pregnant, then when baby Emi was 6 days old.  Now, in this video, she is 6 months old!  I had a great time putting this together, I hope you like it.

Hello!

Thanks for visiting Note and Picture.  I'm in the process of updating the site's look and feel.  Redecorating, dusting the chandeliers, polishing the brass... you know.

More to come.  See you soon!

Author, Nicole Walters

I had the wonderful opportunity to photograph Nicole Walters for the author bio for her book Charis: Journey to Pandora's Jar which my son loved reading.  Check it out!
