Although Hannah and Serafina hadn't seen each other a ton lately, it was fun to get them together for some senior portraits.  They were best friends for years when we lived near to them in Seattle. Our two families have been through thick and thin together and that has left a very special place in my heart for the whole Cunliffe family! Hannah has 7 other sisters and one brother. Serafina has two sisters.   Now they are both 17! I cannot believe it. And I cannot wait to see where the two of them will be in the next 5 years. Hannah is a world renowned track star and Serafina is a very talented musician. When they were little, they sang in the church Christmas Choir together, played outside for countless hours, went to LBC together and generally smiled and played whenever they could. It's been a sweet time looking back at the pictures from their childhoods! Enjoy each moment, they fly by before you can say: "super-cala-fragile-istic-expe-alidocious!" En...

East of the Mountains, there was sun and no clouds! Bits of snow here and there, but a beautiful model and radiant light! We love to capture your son or daughter in a unique, natural setting! This rock was so big, we shot through the middle of it! It's that time of year again! I know it seems early, but the best time for Senior portraits is the spring or summer BEFORE your senior year begins! The year book photos are due in October in our area and it takes time to take the portraits and have our slideshow presentation. I know there is so much to think about Fall of Senior Year as well, so getting them done when the weather is nice and stress is low, is the PERFECT plan! We also have free wallets for everyone who either schedules their session in March/April or refers a friend! What could be better? You would want to choose us for your portraits if your son or daughter wants an outdoor, natural feel to their portraits, if they are either shy or outgoing, and if they wa...

www.GretchenFawnPhotography.com I have to admit, I have never been to see the cherry trees blossoming at UW! I mentioned that I was feeling very inspired on my fb page and I was going to get myself out there. I finally did. I was able to meet my brother Alex, who goes there, and we had a fun time. I was not expecting it to be a tourist attraction on a Sunday. In fact, I was thinking no one would be there on a Sunday at school. I could not have been more wrong. There were so many people, it was hard to get  a picture without 15 or so others in the background. I didn't mind though, because it was about taking in the beauty of these amazing trees and soaking up some sunshine. We walked all around and saw birds nests and other beautiful blossoms too. We even went into the library and shot some images. Please make your way over to UW to the "quad" this week as they will be gone before you can blink! Enjoy! Gretchen

This weather is blowing me away!! We have had more sunny and warm days in March than rainy ones. Then, the next thing I know there is snow on the top of Mt. Si again and a chilly breeze blowing by. All that makes for a wonderful variety of pictures and moods. Today we got a sunny day for our shoot with Cody. Here's a few previews. Enjoy!
