A family of fun | Sammamish Family Photographer

You may remember this couple from last Spring. Well they brought the whole family back for a fun and informal shoot. We started at the park and then when it started raining, we headed indoors. Full family shoots are a lot of fun - and so important too. Is your family together over the holidays? Make sure to capture some of the fun with photos!

And it rained... | Sammamish Family Photographer

So our luck was bound to run out. The morning of this shoot, the sky just opened up and poured. But, we held our breaths and took along the towels and plastic and still had a great shoot! Can't live in Seattle and be afraid of a little rain, you know. =)

Another beautiful day in the neighborhood! | Sammamish Family Photographer

We certainly lucked out with the weather for this shoot. You just never know! Anyway, take a look at this little cutie and her wonderful family too! =)

A sunny day at the lake | Kirkland Family Photographer

We had a beautiful sunny afternoon (in October!) to take this wonderful family's photos. Sun flare and lollipops - how can you go wrong? =)

One year old and so very cute! | Issaquah Family Photographer

I guess it's been a while since I've posted pictures. It's time to remedy that. Here are some shots of a cute little one year old and his parents. =)

A fun family and a great location! Preston Family Photographer

This wonderful family lives in a neighborhood straight out of a movie set! Add the fact that they're just great people and we had lots of soft, cloudy light - and we had a great recipe for a wonderful shoot!

June deals!

I’m getting excited for the summer and am planning for some great summer weather. Does it come any faster if I just pretend it’s warm and sunny? I’m hopeful, but also realistic… so I’m planning June’s mini-session for the end of June (June 27th), giving the sun time to find its way here. Meet me at Ebright Creek Park in Sammamish for a 25 minute mini-session and receive the sitting, 5 digital images, a $25 print credit and memories to last a lifetime – all for $150 (+ tax). =) Ebright offers an amazing playground, wonderful nature backgrounds, a picturesque bridge and more! Call (425.761.4760) or email (melanie@just-because.com) today to reserve your spot!

And also, it’s time to be thinking about the fun, summer days ahead! Book a session in the month of June on a beach (any waterfront counts – and it’s your choice!) and receive a 15% discount on your package. You can’t go wrong with a beach setting. =)

Fun in the sun! Sammamish Family Photographer

We were able to go out and enjoy the sunshine at a recent shoot. Just another day in beautiful Spring-y Seattle!

Family foursome Sammamish Family Photographer

It was cold for this session, but we still had a lot of fun! Look at the girls' blue eyes - just incredible! Oh, and we were even able to get the family cat involved!
