I have been photographing these children since Zoe was just days old. Their Parents and I met on a  Spokane Photography forum about 7 years ago. I so enjoy my loyal clients that come back to me year after year. I try to always give them (and all my clients) quality portraits that they will love and continue to enjoy for the rest of their lives. Little Max's 1 year birthday came at the perfect time so that we could use the lush green grass and the bold rich yellow flowers that we have come to love here in the Pacific North West. As a photographer I wait all year for these beautiful blooms and I use them as much as I possibly can during the short window that they are available.

Thank you to Emily and Jason for trusting me to create portraits of their children and family through out the years! It means the world to me!

Day Two of Kim Stadler Photography Mother's Day sessions were great. A few families opted out of having their portraits online (I always respect my clients privacy). So that leaves more room for these gorgeous moms! The weather was absolutely perfect both days. I cannot believe our luck. As you know Spring time in Spokane can be quite unpredictable. It can be snowing, raining, lightening storms or sunny 70 degrees in the course of a week. Most of the time my guess is as good as the weather man's!

 Day two was photographing mother's and children until the sun went down and it was so much fun. I am already excited for next year! Thank you for choosing Kim Stadler Photography for your Mother's Day portraits. And a shout out to the husbands who bought these sessions for their wives for presents. How sweet is that?!

My Mother's Day Sessions are very dear to my heart. After a long winter...Especially this rough winter that Spokane endured this last time around I am ready for the nice weather. Something about our home coming back to life with green grass, new leaves on the trees, the Spring flowers and the birds chirping has me bouncing out the door to greet all my favorite mom clients after the months indoors!

These are some of my favorite pictures from Kim Stadler Photography's first round of Mother's Day sessions. I will be working hard on Day two the next couple days!

The H Family was referred to me by another awesome client of mine. The highest complement someone can give is to recommend me to their friends.  It lets me know that I am doing something right!
In my family portraits I tend to take a simple approach. Spokane Washington has so many gorgeous locations. Sometimes a natural neutral setting is just what I am looking for so that the emphasis can be on the family and the love and relationships that have with each other. The neutral fields let this beautiful family be front and center in their portraits. 
Creating classic family portraits is my passion. I want to thank the H family for trusting me to fulfill their expectations!
