Ladies Night at Hellam’s Wine Bar
December 8th in LaConner. Over at Hellam’s Wine Bar in the old Perry Polson Warehouse (we know it today as the Lime Dock Building), they hosted a “ladies’ night” that included some tasty hors d’oeuvre creations made by the town’s one and only Scone Lady – Christie! Her treats are amazing in appearance and flavor. That Scone Lady can bake! There were some terrific vendors there as well, as you look through the photo gallery you might recognize them yourself. If there was something you were meaning to pickup for…

The Quince
In March this year we moved our boat from the north basin to the south basin moorage at the Port of Skagit Marina in LaConner. The south basin is closer to town and close to the Swinomish Yacht Club building. We do not belong to the yacht club, not yacht anyway. The clubhouse, which resembles more of a dentist’s office than some kind of Thurston Howell the Third hang out, is usually rented out on the weekends; most of the parties are mainly quinceaneras, which are the celebration of a…

I have been reluctant to post in my blog because … well… I want to post mostly photographs but when I format them for posting, they get stretched when viewing on phones, which is where most people will be viewing these days. I’ve set aside posting for a few weeks and then when I finally think to get back to it I of course forget that the problem is the photographs stretching out on the iphone and I happily put some pictures up and then when I go to show…

Real Estate and Interior Shots
There are many situations that call for interior photography. Real estate sales, remodeling examples, room organization, kitchen demonstrations, interior design work. One of the most frequently seen styles of interior photography is the before and after remodel example. The biggest key to selling a remodel is to make sure you get the “before” shot. That’s the shot that most people forget but that’s the shot that makes the “after” so much more incredible. Over this past weekend, I did a very basic interior shoot to display a makeover of a boat’s salon…

I currently have availability for TWO Newborn sessions between February 20th and March 4th (boy, girl, twins, special needs, all are welcome to apply) – for one of my very special artistically stylized Newborn Sessions.
