Natural, laid-back portrait sessions.
High-end photography.

ABOUT THESE 2023 SEATTLE SPRING MINI SESSIONS:

Spring Mini Sessions are here! These safe, fun sessions are simply a mini version of my full sessions. That means you get all the benefits of a full session but in a shorter amount of time (great for kiddos that might tap out quickly).

This year is different, though! You’ll have the choice between a natural-light studio (no backdrops or lighting setups) or an outdoor session. Want some PNW spring blooms in your photos? Choose outdoors! Want a comfy indoor session without having to consider weather? Choose the studio!

My goal with every session is to create natural, heartfelt portraits to hang on your wall, use for holiday cards, share with friends on Instagram, give as gifts to grandparents, and to offer something your family is going to cherish for generations.

These sessions are meant to be fun and laid-back. Expect 15 minutes of hanging out in a gorgeous park or a beautiful studio with your favorite people just being yourselves.

Studio vs Outdoor:
which is right for you?

 

Studio Session Benefits

This is a great choice for those who want their session to be as stress-free as possible. Free and easy designated parking will be provided + you won’t have to even consider a weather reschedule! Bonus: you’ll be in a beautiful studio with just your family, which typically makes for a super comfortable environment for kids. (Photo via Peerspace.com)

Outdoor Session Benefits

This is the session type for you if you want to include Seattle’s incredible natural beauty in your photos. Amazing blooms and foliage make for gorgeous spring backdrops (and Rhododendrons should be in full bloom!). On top of that, some kiddos do better outside—especially if you’re a family that spends a lot of time outdoors.

 
 

COVID-19 PRECAUTIONS:

Here’s what I’ll be doing to protect my clients, the general public, and myself:

  • I am fully vaccinated + boosted

  • I will use a tight lens to distance from everyone at your session

Hey, I’m Kiersten! I’m a newborn, family, maternity, and couples lifestyle photographer and I have a lot of love for this part of the country and for the people who call it home, like you.

I’ve been a film geek since high school (Ingmar Bergman, Wes Anderson, and Stanley Kubrick on loop), which piqued my interest in photography. I pursued that curiosity and started shooting weddings in 2007. It was there where I realized how much I adored the in-between moments—the candid, the heartfelt. That’s how I found a home in family, maternity, and couples photography, capturing those beautiful in-between, soulful moments. Capturing moments as naturally as they can be.

Life moves past us way too fast, but I have the privilege of stopping it for families, couples and individuals who invite me to hang out and document them in their truest form. Capture their real, loving moments.

I’d love to do that for you.
