Posted by on Dec 31, 2009 in .Families.|.Little ones. | No Comments

Giggles ::  Hanukkah :: Christmas :: Parents 1st year anniversary :: Max had a fun filled photoshoot. Since this is his 2nd shoot with me, I’d say he’s getting used to me. hehe… This shoot with the Blunt Family is the 2nd session out of the “Year in the Baby’s Life” series I offer. His parents, Rebecca and Zack, celebrated their year anniversary over this shoot weekend of December 19, 2009. I photographed their wedding December 20, 2008. Ok, this time for you to do the math. Max is 3 months old. Max is super adorable and I feel so lucky to get the opportunity to photograph him as he gets older and older! I am now about to blog about the mini-shoot we did while Max was napping. You will soon see the images of JUST Rebecca & Zack. Happy Anniversary you too! Here are some of my favorites from Max’s session: 01_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0385 02_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0585 03_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0423 04_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0469 05_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0526 06_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0495 07_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0001 08_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0363 09_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0005 10_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0055 11_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0026 12_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0094 13_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0557 14_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0359 15_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0393 16_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0635 17_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0646 18_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0664 19_121909_NicoleGoddard_MG_0669

Classic, Elegant & Simple | An Autumn, Seattle Wedding Celebration | Anne + Brian

Posted by on Dec 1, 2009 in . Weddings . | No Comments

My first time meeting Brian, the groom, was minutes before he saw his stunning bride, Anne. He was calm, collective & cool; anticipating their first glance in front of the Alexis Hotel downtown Seattle. I set-up the first glance alongside the hotel making sure it was clear of people. I absolutely LOVE this moment. It’s a time when brides & grooms can have an intimate moment seeing each other for the very first time on their wedding day. They can exchange sweet, loving words and even have time to shed a few tears of joy during this once in a lifetime moment. And, during this, there aren’t 200 set of eyes of them, just me from afar with a long lens capturing every second. Anne and Brian’s expressions were transparent of the love they have for each other, not just during their first glance, but also throughout the entire day. The rest of day unfolded beautifully, full of smiles & sunshine. It was brisk fall day, October 10, 2009. The autumn colors were beaming of reds, oranges and yellows which perfectly tied into the wedding day color scheme. We took the ‘formal’ shots of the wedding party near the Seattle iconic Kerry Park and met the family at the most beautiful Catholic Church called Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church in the University District followed by their lovely ceremony. The reception was held at The Canal in Ballard!  So much fun. A special thanks to Melissa Parker with Amazing Events and my amazing photography assistant, Amber Brickman. Congrats Anne and Brian!! I had such awonderful time capturing your wedding. 01_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_4229 02_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_1935 03_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_1967 04_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_1985 05_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2020 06_101009_NicoleGoddard_anne_shoes 08_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2043 09_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2060 10_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2095 11_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2108 12_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2131 13_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2154 14_101009_NicoleGoddard 16_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2223 17_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2231 18_101009_NicoleGoddard_firstglance 19_101009_NicoleGoddard_FirstGlanceHug 24_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2307 26_101009_NicoleGoddard_ 25_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_4286 29_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2349 30_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_4363 31_101009_NicoleGoddard_girls 37_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2418 38_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2462 42_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_4424 43_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_4460 44_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_4469 45_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_4472 46_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_4569 47_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_4647 48_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_4665 49_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2671 50_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_4850 51_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2745 52_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2757 53_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2788 54_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_4889 55_101009_NicoleGoddard_ceremonyKiss 57_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2898 58_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_2909 59_101009_NicoleGoddard_details 63_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_3158 64_101009_reception_laughter 66_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_3332 67_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_3348 68_101009_bouquet-toss 69_101009_dancing 75_101009_NicoleGoddard_MG_3445_father_daughter_dance

Sweet Family in the Park

Posted by on Nov 17, 2009 in .Families.|.Little ones. | No Comments

Yesterday I photographed the sweet Goldstein Family at Douglas Park in Santa Monica. It was a gorgeous Sunday and the Goldsteins looked awesome.  We fed some ducks, made silly faces, climbed some trees and tried to make a cute, little baby giggle. At the end of our photo session, Aiden, 4 years old, helped me take apart my camera and he said, “Hey, your camera breaks.”  This definitely gave me a good laugh. Oh, the things 4 years olds say– gotta love it! Thanks for a very fun shoot, Goldstein Family.  Looking forward to photoshoot #3 with you! 01_26_110509_NicoleGoddard_Aiden 14_31_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8571_reilly 02_29_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8551_aiden_tree 10_15_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8253_family 04_05_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8090_aiden_pond 08_23_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8498_aiden 05_03_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8076_park_aiden 07_21_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8480_aiden_Park 06_04_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8080_aiden 09_22_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8488_park_aiden 11_14_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8226_family 12_35_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8611_family_tree 15_20_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8472_reilly_melanie 17_17_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8351_Reilly 19_28_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8533 21_01_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8065 23_06_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8102 24_07_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8134 25_08_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8138 26_09_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8145 27_10_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8149 28_11_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8158 29_16_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8310 22_02_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8072 30_13_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8190 16_33_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8597_Aiden

At the end of our photo session, Aiden, 4 years old, helped me take apart my camera and he said, “Hey, your camera breaks.”  This definitely gave me a good laugh. Oh, the things 4 years olds say– gotta love it! Thanks for a very fun shoot, Goldstein Family.  Looking forward to photoshoot #3 with you! 01_26_110509_NicoleGoddard_Aiden 14_31_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8571_reilly 02_29_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8551_aiden_tree 10_15_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8253_family 04_05_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8090_aiden_pond 08_23_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8498_aiden 05_03_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8076_park_aiden 07_21_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8480_aiden_Park 06_04_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8080_aiden 09_22_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8488_park_aiden 11_14_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8226_family 12_35_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8611_family_tree 15_20_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8472_reilly_melanie 17_17_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8351_Reilly 19_28_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8533 21_01_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8065 23_06_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8102 24_07_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8134 25_08_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8138 26_09_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8145 27_10_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8149 28_11_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8158 29_16_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8310 22_02_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8072 30_13_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8190 16_33_091115_NicoleGoddard_MG_8597_Aiden
