Knudson Family Year 8 | Carkeek Park

How has it been 8 years since we started photographing this beautiful family?! We met them shortly after they had their first baby and were pregnant (at the same time as us!) with their second. Photographing their son’s newborn session while I was 9 months pregnant was a session I’ll certainly never forget.

Now that their kids are all past the baby and toddler stage, it was a whole new ballgame with the kiddos telling me what photos they’d like to take and showing me all their climbing and running ticks. They were rockstars when it came to taking a smiling photo for mom and dad and there was no shortage of hugs passed around.

Love your family Annie & Jeff. So glad you’re in our lives! ~Marissa

1 Year Session | Seattle Family Photographer

Celebrating the first year of this family was such a joy!

We actually first met them for their wedding day. It was such a wonderful surprise to hear from them for their maternity session last year when they decided to document the first year as a family with us! Newborn came next and then Luca’s 1 year celebration. We met at a local studio and had a blast dancing, singing and eating cake of course. Luca thought it was the best, see all the smiles below!

Congratulations on your first year of parenthood Gisela & Jacinto! I’ve loved documenting your first year together with sweet Luca. ~Marissa

Courtney & Noah | Seattle Aquarium Wedding

It was a gorgeous summer day when we arrived at the airbnb where Courtney & Noah’s crews were getting ready. Since they’d seen each other the year before for an intimate family wedding, the two opted to spend the day together, enjoying every moment with each other (no first look necessary since they’d seen their wedding outfits already!). Noah even helped Courtney get ready by putting on her necklace, so sweet.

The waterfront by the Seattle Aquarium had the perfect breeze for a hot, sunny day and we were able to spot ferry boats and seagulls as we captured Courtney & Noah’s vow renewals. (And whoever said vow renewals aren’t as teary hasn’t met these two! Their vows were just as special, sweet, full of happy tears, and binding as ever.) The flower men with fanny packs were a huge hit and Noah surprised Courtney with a tiny, hidden dinosaur in her bouquet as a special surprise.

The celebration continued with lots of laughter, cinnamon rolls, and dancing in front of the big tank full of sea life. The fish found it pretty entertaining to watch everyone let loose (seriously, some of the fish seemed to be transfixed, per the guests pure enjoyment).

Congrats Courtney & Noah! We wish you two a lifetime of happiness and are so thankful to have been part of your day. ~Erik & Marissa

Kollman Family | Seattle Newborn Photographer

Meeting new families as they navigate their first month with a newborn is the sweetest! Even with just a handful of weeks under their belt, these two parents were already calm and collected, responding to Hannah’s needs and loving on their first-born pup Maggie (who sometimes stole the show;).

Congratulations Ali & TJ! She is precious. Thank you for letting me document you all together for the first time! ~Marissa

Browning Family Year 7 | Magnuson Park

Watching our forever families grow and change year after year is such a gift! Getting to know the kiddos through these sessions and seeing their little legs get longer and their faces thin out from the chubby, baby stage is so fun to watch.

We always joke that Julie & Matt’s kids could be related to ours with all that blonde hair!

Thanks for another great year of capturing your family Julie & Matt. Always a pleasure seeing you all! ~Marissa
