i capture your life's most

I am a mom and a wife first, and secondly, a professional photographer and I am so thankful that I get to do what I love everyday. I am 37 and live and in Bonney Lake, WA. I specialize in portrait photography; families, maternity, all those adorable little ones from birth to graduation, weddings, corporate headshots and events.

Photography has been a passion of mine since high school. I wasn’t bored one day, picked up a camera and wallah I was a professional photographer… I consciously decided I wanted to be a photographer and that I wanted to be the best one out there. So I researched all of the photography schools on the west coast and picked the best one that I could find. Brooks Institute of Photography based out of Santa Barbara, CA. I graduated in 2008 after three long years with a Bachelor of Arts degree, with a double concentration in Advertising and Commercial photography. After that I moved to Los Angeles where I was mentored by and worked for some of the most amazing celebrity photographers in the world. I also worked for Disney and Kidsline professionally retouching their nursery collections for almost a year. In 2009, I decided that it was time to come back to the beautiful PNW and start my own business! I knew without a shadow of a doubt that portraits were my passion already, so that was the direction I took my business.

I love to be creative and strive to make every photoshoot even better than the next. I always provide an atmosphere best suited to bring out the best of YOU in your photos. My goal is to capture the true smiles that aren’t rehearsed, the cuddles, the kisses and the natural joyful way you and your family or spouse interact. My number one goal with every session is always to show you at your best and provide you with images that you will love and cherish for years over.

"Whitney was amazing! This was the first time we had professional family photos taken and we couldn't have asked for a better outcome. The photos came out incredible (especially for trying to capture the essence of two *rambunctious*  young boys) and we couldn't be happier with the results. Whitney made us all feel at ease without stressing about getting the perfect shot and making us laugh in between takes. We will definitely be using her again for our pictures in the future."

- Alexis

"Whitney did a family shoot for us in October and we couldn't be happier with her work! Whitney is incredibly easy to work with. Both in setting up the shoot, day of and delivery of photos. She did a great job with our 9 month old Olivia and she was able to get the family poses we were looking for. More importantly whitney captured the quiet moments when we forgot there was a camera. We couldn't be happier with the photos we received or the experience we had. I couldn't reccomend Whitney more!"

"OH MY GOODNESS. WHITNEY IS THE BEST. This was our first time getting pictures taken by her and right after the shoot I told my husband that we just met our new family photographer! Not only did Magnolias newborn pictures turn out better than I could have EVER imagined but Whitney handled and posed her with such care. She was amazing with our nine day old newborn, so attentive and gentle. She made the whole session so fun which lead us to the best family photos. You could tell she loved being there. I loved getting to see her light up when she thought of a new picture set up or swaddle bow combo to try. It made me genuinely excited to see what she was going to do and how they would turn out. These pictures left both me and my husband speechless at one AM, because of course we had to look at them all as soon as they came through! I could not recommend Whitney more! Thank you so much for the amazing experience and gorgeous photos Whitney!"

"I have used Whitney as my family photographer since 2017, photographing so many of our life milestones and capturing the sweetest moments of my family! I have two younger children and Whitney has so much patience and always makes us feel comfortable while taking photos. She always finds the best locations and has such wonderful ideas for poses, especially for my little ones. I'm always nervous and stressed during and after my session because my children, but Whitney never fails to produce such amazing photos! "
