About Us

Our Philosophy

  • “Beauty can be seen in all things, seeing and composing the beauty is what separates the snapshot from the photograph.” — Matt Hardy
  • “The whole point of taking pictures is so that you don’t have to explain things with words.” — Elliott Erwitt
  • “It’s one thing to make a picture of what a person looks like, it’s another thing to make a portrait of who they are.” — Paul Caponigro
  • “Photography is the only language that can be understood anywhere in the world.” — Bruno Barbey

Our Mission

  • Our mission is to provide our clients with high-quality photographs that they will cherish forever. It is our mission to capture images that reflect your family’s personality and relationships together.
  • It is our mission to give you exactly what you are looking for. Please communicate with us all of your ideas you have for your photoshoot.
  • Our hope is that when you receive your pictures after a session, you will be thrilled to see the results. You will love the pictures and will want to share them with everyone you know.

What We Do

  • We take pictures! We capture valuable memories that you get to keep forever. We provide affordable, yet high-quality photography services throughout Washington State.
  • We are here to serve YOU. We want YOU to tell us what you are looking for and we will do our very best to meet your requests.
  • We offer a wide variety of photography services including wedding photography, engagement photography, and family portraits. Please contact us to request a service.

After a shoot, Tammy uses Lightroom and Photoshop to edit the pictures by color correcting any white balance issues, enhancing the colors, and touching up any temporary blemishes — so your pictures will be looking fantastic. Because of this, it can take 2-4 weeks before receiving your photos after a shoot.

Our Team

Our team consists of a husband and wife duo. We are located in Bonney Lake, Washington in the United States and serve the entire Puget Sound area. We are willing to travel to your desired destination in Washington State — just contact us and submit your proposal in the form.

About My Hobbies

When I’m not photographing, my other favorite activities are hiking, playing sports (especially basketball and tennis), cooking, DIY projects, and hanging out with my family. I have two other websites. One where I share my favorite recipes and lifestyle ideas, and the other in which I sell photography art prints and digital files.
