I finally got to meet Miss Chloe today!  She is just too cute for words, and I am in love with her beautiful long hair.  I don’t think I have ever seen a newborn with such thick and long hair.  It goes all the way down to her back!
Of course we had to take some...

{ An Evening On The Farm } Sequim WA Family Photographer

I have been so excited for this shoot, for so long.  A couple of months ago when Chantelle contacted me about photos, she mentioned where their property was, and I  practically started jumping up and down when I read her email, because it is one of my absolute favorite spots in all of Sequim.  I...

Wow – I, too, am not one to post comments but found that I had to on these photos!!! Amazing doesn’t even describe these photos. All of them are beautiful, but my heart melts with the last one of the boys loading the hay – absolutely stunning!!

Janet Stipe - June 19, 2010 - 10:33 pm

Tara, these pictures of my Son and his family are the best. My Husband, with the (sometimes) help of Tommy, farms this property. I was glad Chantelle & Bob had chose “The Farm” for their family portraits. The green grass,green hayfields & the cows made this ever so personal for our family. Thank you so very much for the GREAT job.
Proud Mom & Granny,
Janet Stipe

P.S.Bob did play sports & graduated Sequim High.

Alison - June 15, 2010 - 1:01 pm

I am lucky to be related to this beautiful family and you couldn’t have done a better job of capturing every side of their personalities. I was asked to pick my favorite one, but that is a hard choice. I love love them all.

Sherie Dills - June 6, 2010 - 9:40 pm

I love the golden glow of the light. I drive past this barn and field frequently and have often admired the pastoral sense of it. You did a lovely job, wiht your lovely talent….and the couch?….priceless, especailly with the cows as background!!

Precious, precious, precious shots of the family and mommy with her little ones! And I just love all the cows… Though, one of my fav’s is the boys loading up the hay. The lighting with the dust is amazing! Great job Tara !
