Sasha | Puyallup Newborn Photographer

May 8, 2018

You guys, I don’t even know if I can find the words to describe how amazing this family was. Dad is a photographer who mainly photographs weddings and events and pretty much all things NOT newborn photography related 🙂 When they hired me to be their daughter’s photographer, I was beyond flattered. It’s always an honor to be chosen by a family to capture this special time in their lives, but when another photographer chooses you, it’s even more special!

Miss Sasha was so itty bitty. I loved the color pallet momma chose for her session; the creamy tones and the purples were absolutely gorgeous on her. It feels like a lifetime ago when I photographed her session; I can imagine how big she must be getting now.

Harry and Alexandra | Seattle Newborn Photographer

March 21, 2018

Seattle newborn photographer, Dawn Potter Photography specializes in newborn photography. Her studio is located just a few miles east of Seattle in downtown Issaquah and easily accessible from I90. The studio is full equipped with everything needed to complete your newborn session. We even have adorable little sets that work perfectly for twins!

I have had the pleasure of photographing several sets of twins in my studio. Some have been girls, some have been boys, some have been identical, and some have been boy/girl. These two, Harry and Alexandra were boy girl twins, and even though they weren’t identical, they sure looked an awful lot alike! I loved how easy it was for the two of them to cuddle right up next to each other and snuggle each other like they had for the past 9 months in the womb. Their sweet little faces and personalities captured my heart from the second they came in with their two papas and their sweet grandmother.

I absolutely adored meeting this family and am humbled by the fact that they chose me to capture their special memories. If you are interested in having a newborn portrait session in the Seattle or Tacoma area, please contact me today!

Seattle Family Photographer | Outdoor Mountain Session

March 19, 2018

Seattle family photographer Dawn Potter Photography photographs families outdoors from late spring to early fall. This location is a little less than 2 hours from Seattle and I promise you, it is 100% worth the extra drive. With views of Mount Rainier and gorgeous wild flowers that bloom in the summer, it’s the perfect escape from the city. This special place is only accessible in the summer months and I only take a handful of clients out there each year so be sure to inquire early about scheduling your mountain session.
