Lifestyle Fine Art Photography


Hey there, fellow photography enthusiasts and adventure seekers!



Today, I've got an enchanting story to share with you, straight from a late August evening in the heart of Orting, WA. Picture this: golden hour, a field painted in the warm hues of the setting sun, and the delightful presence of a little charmer named Morgan.



A Portrait Session Shrouded in Mystery


From the very beginning, Morgan was a bit of an enigma. As a lifestyle photographer in Puyallup, I've had the privilege of capturing the quirks and charms of countless little ones. But Morgan was different. Throughout our session, he wore an expression of quiet curiosity, studying me with those wide, inquisitive eyes.

A Dapper Dude in Suspenders and Jeans


Morgan, dressed in his jeans and suspenders, looked like a little gentleman ready for his grand debut. His outfit exuded a timeless charm that perfectly matched the golden-hour magic that enveloped us.

The Cake Dilemma:

A Plot Twist

Now, here's where the plot takes an unexpected twist. The cake, a centerpiece of any memorable cake smash session, arrived with a surprise of its own. It was... well, let's just say it didn't quite meet our artistic expectations. But in a field, with only a plastic knife as her tool, Morgan's resourceful mom worked her magic and turned it into a masterpiece.

Morgan vs. The Cake: A Tale of Triumph



As we presented the cake to Morgan, he approached it with the same cautious curiosity that had marked our session thus far. But then, something extraordinary happened. With a gleam in his eye and a sense of determination, Morgan plunged his little hands into the cake, elbow-deep!

This was the best part, by far for all of us i think. i have not had a baby dive in like this before and i was all for it.









What followed was sheer magic. Morgan, in his newfound role as a cake connoisseur, created a symphony of expressions that ranged from delighted surprise to sheer cake-induced bliss. Every bite was a revelation, every face he made was a work of art, and I was there to capture it all.

It was a reminder that every child, like every moment, is unique and beautiful in its own way.


A Late August Evening to Remember


As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden glow over Orting, we wrapped up Morgan's 1-year portrait session. The evening had been a treasure trove of surprises and delights, a reminder that the magic of photography often lies in the unexpected moments.
