I've been busy, busy with school lately, but I couldn't wait to get to my number one favorite portrait location (so far, that is...I'm always looking for new awesome places to shoot!) Right now, may favorites have been: 5. Sammamish Commons Park 4. Bellevue Botanical Gardens 3. Tolt MacDonald Park 2. Gasworks Park and finally...
#1: Juanita Bay Park in Kirkland. I first discovered this location when one of my Seniors asked to have her pictures taken there. It was a beautiful late summer day, and when I arrived at the park, I found photographers all over. It quickly became clear that this park was a favorite for MANY photographers, and I could most definitely see why. The colors were beautiful, and the number of great spots for portrait taking were endless.

After that shoot, I returned time and time again. As the seasons changed, so did the scenery in the park, but each change brought equally beautiful opportunities for amazing pictures.
Families, Seniors, Couples, Kids... This spot is perfect for any kind of portrait!
And of course, it's become a favorite spot for me to photograph some of my very favorite people... a.k.a. my big sister and my baby sister...
So, there you have it... My #1 favorite portrait taking spot for now. I'm headed back there tomorrow to shoot a family session! I expect it will be as beautiful as ever. I can't wait to take pictures there as winter turns to spring, and then spring to summer!
