{20 Months} Jake

A "Big Boy" cup to go with his "Big Boy" haircut.

{9 Months} Liliana Mae

Little Liliana is now 9 months old, and she has definitely grown a lot since the last time I saw her. I got to take her photos when she was just 3 months old and now she's sitting up on her own, standing with some help, and even crawling! She is such a little cutie and I just could not get enough of her ADORABLE smile and BRIGHT blue eyes! The last photo is one of my favs and I just couldn't decide between the color and the black and white, so I decided to show both:) Absolutely precious!!

{Expecting} Betsy & Gino

My Cousin Betsy and her husband Gino are expecting a baby boy in August!! I'm so excited for them and I can't wait to meet the newest addition to the Trapani's! Betsy has had one of the roughest pregnancies I've ever hear of, but you'd never know by the HUGE smile on her face. She was hospitalized in the 1st trimester, initially lost 10 pounds, she had to be hooked up to an IV around the clock for five weeks, and now her hips give her so much pain that she can barely walk or even move. Gino is such a trooper though, and is always right by her side to help her out. They are both overjoyed to welcome their 1st baby into this world, and it sounds like he may even make an early appearance. She's already starting to have lots of contractions and we even had to take a little break from shooting while we waited for one to pass. I know that Betsy and Gino will make AMAZING parents and their little boy will be so loved! Congratulations!!

{Family} Auction Package

This year I donated a number of photography packages to auctions in order to help raise money for some local schools and some local charities as well. Here's some of the photos form the first portrait session from the winning bidder at the St Luke Auction!

{Married} Shawn & Brett

I'm so sorry that this post is a little overdue, but I had no idea HOW MANY photos I actually took! Shawn & Brett got married a couple weeks ago at Deception Pass State Park in Northwest Washington. The ceremony took place on the banks of Cranberry Lake where we were surrounded with beautiful trees, fresh air, and of course a few rain drops. Thanks so much for letting me be a part of your big day!

{Engaged} Aimee & Eric

Aimee and I met way back in Kindergarten and recently reconnected! She's a photographer as well and we've been able to swap stories back and forth about all our experiences. We met up a couple months ago and she was telling me all about her amazing boyfriend and how they were talking about getting married in the new future. Well...he popped the question and I was so excited when Aimee asked me to take the engagement photos! It was so nice getting to know these two a little better and I'm so excited for them. They are so in to one another and you can tell that their love will lead to a long and happy life together! I have so many photos to go through but I wanted to give them a little preview, enjoy!

{Engaged} Katie & Michael

Katie & Michael are newly engaged and ready to take the plunge into marriage! These two were so much fun to photograph and their easy going personalities helped us get some great shots. Michael definitely kept us entertained with his funny faces and light hearted attitude. Laughter is such a key ingredient in marriage and I can tell that these two won't fall short of it.
