I wish I could select more than three! Dana was more than perfect for our family. I have a 4 yr old with adhd and a 7 year old with adhd and on the autism spectrum. My oldest especially, does NOT like photos. Life changes and lack of 'family photos' in 4 years called for an update. Single mom on an intense budget without any assistance or support yet with high maintenance young kids with needs. I was so fortunate to stumble on a post by Dana. She gave us 2 options for location, we picked the closest to home of Fort Steilacoom Park. Dana communicated at time of booking and day of shoot with some questions and suggestions (ie, a blanket if I had one but she had a small one available, color suggestions - more on that below, etc). When I explained the Dana my children would most likely NOT enjoy this and would be highly likely to pick what might be considered 'inappropriate' family photo clothing, she didn't even bat an eye. She was early to the shoot (as were we in order to get a snack in) and she directed us to the location nearby and quickly explained her thoughts for the shoot and found a good spot based on lighting. She greeted my kids right away and connected with them, without being overbearing (most people do not acknowledge them out of fear of not knowing how to do so without doing it 'wrong' and she also didn't get close or directly address them one on one which people do with neurotypical kids sometimes but can be stressful and uncomfortable to mine). She complimented their clothing choices, directed me with her ideas and then occasionally suggested one of the kids do something or both of then or all of us. She kept her distance and did not come pose our hands or bodies, as some photographers usually do, which helped dramatically to ease my children's tension. She was there to capture exactly what I wanted, our normal everyday tiny moments. After we shot in a grassy location the kid asked to go over to he lake a short walk away and she suggested she get some shots there. We agreed and she did the same type of thing at the lake with 'oh yeah, you could throw rocks in!' When my son piped up about skipping rocks. She didn't heard my kids together but would occasionally mention 'okay, look back at me!' Or mention directions that I could here and allowed me to instruct my kids in a way they felt comfortable. Dana was patient, kind, connected, and talented in our session and I HIGHLY recommend her! I've included just SOME of her amazing photos from our session.

Well I could only pick three things I liked on the page but ! I got my sneak peaks tonight. I to say the least am NOT disappointed. Dana was so kind and gentle and comfortable to work with. She did great with our pup and we will definitely be using her again . Between her kind spirit and professionalism, and how she really made us feel comfortable. Her photography is so natural and gifted I recommend to anyone to use her !
