The One and Only Rollo!

*The cloudiness you can see on his left eye is from an injury and is healing. Hopefully it will clear more but the eye shows some scarring. You’re still lovely, Rollo! Four years at the rescue and we will NEVER EVER give up on finding you a permanent home. This guy has come a long way. I’ll be deliriously happy when he finds his perfect human pal who understands his quirkiness and feels his sweet character shine through.

Rollo is at Animal Talk Rescue of Seattle.

Photos save lives! Several people I know sent this link to me, thinking of the rescue photography that I do. There’s a whole community of amazing photogs also doing what they can to save the lives of shelter animals. It’s great to see the press is spreading the word!

Rainy Day Pop | Seattle Live Music Photogaphy

We’ve been fortunate to have had some great (even if cold) sunny weather here in Seattle for days now, but finally today the rain suddenly started to pour down. It’s one of those days where I don’t feel so bad about being camped out on the couch (with a half-sick child) doing some digital homework. And now that I’m armed with a faster laptop and hard drive, as well as a little wheeled desk to use my computer on, my photo-processing workflow has become fun again. None of that mind-numbingly slow exporting, saving and uploading that was going on!

Along with creating a band poster, today I’ve caught up with kindergarten photos in addition to gig photos, and I’m about to move onto (and back to!) photos from last spring taken in England. It’s about bloody time, I think!

Here are some gig photos of The Pop Cycle, that I took at the end of January, at back-to-back gigs at the Highline and at Tim’s Tavern here in Seattle. Some hot red guitars to brighten up this dreary day…

Stay warm and dry!! xo ~ K

Photographing the Golden Years | Seattle Pet Photography

Here is the dapper old pug known as Max that I photographed recently. I am really hoping to have the chance for more opportunities to photograph older animals; ones that are in their ‘golden years’. The soul in those brown eyes, the many folds in his skin, the grey whiskers, it’s all fascinating to look at; such character!

To capture memories of humans’ beloved animal friends is such an honor for me. I have heard from a number of people who said they wish they had done a photo session with their dog or cat before they passed on. Please do let me know if you would like to talk about setting up a ‘Golden Years’ or Borrowed Time session with your animal friend, I’d love to hear from you.

Happy New Year, everyone!! I’ve learned a lot from the last year, particularly in terms of what I can accomplish with my photography. I’ve done all sorts of things new, and I’m grateful to those who have let me into their lives to document and create. Newborns, maternity, live music, headshots, family, children, cats (of course!), dogs, school portraits…amazingly I did all of it. Many people say it’s not good to be a ‘jack of all trades’ or a generalist when it comes to photography work, but I like to challenge myself. It’s good to discover strengths and weaknesses, and recognize areas that need improvement and change, and that’s what we all aim to do in the new year, right?

So in 2014, I am going to make a promise to myself to better document my OWN family’s life. If you’re a photographer, you know well how easy it is to get wrapped up in other people’s projects and events, and neglect your own. I’ll be creating a personal photography ‘catch-up’ list this week, to make sure I get a start on it! I still have photos to edit from my trip to England in the spring!! Naughty Katherine.

Wishing you all a fabulous year ahead!!
