Baby 'A'

Not to long ago I received an e-mail from Dawn, a former bride who's wedding we had photographed. Last July they had their first child, a beautiful daughter who will be known here as Baby 'A'. They were requesting that we photograph 'A' as she grows this first year of her life. =)

Baby 'L'

This last week we had another visit from baby 'L'. Unfortunately due to the bad weather we had to stay and play inside. Despite staying inside, we got the many expressions of baby 'L'.

Jacob

We met with Jacob and his mom, Karen at Point Defiance Park for Jacob's senior portrait session. We had a great time with Jacob and despite the differences, there were many ways Jacob reminded me of my oldest son. =) It was a little freaky at times, and more than anything it made me miss my son a LOT.

Like my own son, Karen and Jacob have a great relationship which is always wonderful to watch. We had first met Jacob at Karen and Scott's wedding at the Day Island Bed & Breakfast last month.

Intern Wanted

We, at Family Affair Photography are actively in search for the right person to join our team.  First as an intern with the opportunity to become a part of our team.

As mentioned, it's starting out as an intern meaning WITHOUT pay, working on photos from our FREE Operation: Love Reunited photography sessions.  These are family portraits that will be edited then sent to the soldiers who are deployed, away from their loved ones.  Once they are edited I will make the prints and send them to the soldiers. 

At this time we are simply looking for an individual who is looking to fill a little extra time on their hands while earning a little extra cash.  This isn't a gig where you will make big money.  Unfortunately, I don't make a lot of money so, I don't have a lot to pay out! 

We had looked into some photo editing companies and decided we really don't want to send the work out of state or to another country.  If we like what you do with a few of the Op: Love sessions then we would like to pay you to edit photos from our paid work.  We are looking to pay a comparable rate to the services we found online. 

The other opportunity this person would have is to become an assistant with the ability to work up as an associate photographer, shooting at weddings and other events.  

We are working on three ways this individual would be able to earn money, get some experience and if they want move on with their own photography business or maybe stay with us as an associate.

If you are interested in wedding and portrait photography,  please contact us for complete details and requirements.
