A friend of mine asked me to do a boudoir photo shoot of her so she could make a Valentine’s gift for her husband. I’ve never done this type of photography before, so it was good to have my first experience with a friend. She had her friend with her who had just finished a boudoir photo shoot with another photographer so she was a good help! Here are 2 photos from her shoot.

Snoqualmie Falls in Wasington State looked amazing during the cold freeze that it had. Icicles were forming all around the waterfall and on the rocks below. It was truly a magnificent site! These photos were taken on December 12, 2009.

My 6 month old goldendoodle puppy really likes the snow. We took her up to Snoqualmie Pass this pass weekend and she had a blast.

Yesterday, I photographed Terri and Jordan’s wedding. Their wedding took place outdoors at their grandmother’s backyard in North Bend. During a lot of the formal shots we were able to get Mt. Si in the background. Terri and Jordan decided to do the formal photographs before the ceremony. So to be able to capture the groom’s first look at the bride on camera, Jordan blind folded himself. The 3rd photo below shows his reaction after seeing his bride for the first time.

I wanted to share some more photos of Kona, my Goldendoodle puppy. A Goldendoodle is a mix between a golden retriever and a standard poodle. We got Kona when she was 6 weeks old. She is 12 weeks old now, but these pictures range from 6 weeks to 10 weeks of age. She is considered an apricot colored Goldendoodle, with shades of light cream and darker cream colors mixed together. She is such a cutie!

My name is Tammy and I am the owner and photographer for www.hqphotography.com. I’ve decided to try something new and give Word Press a try to create an on-going blog. In this blog, I hope to be able to post photos from photo shoots I’ve done as well as discuss all types of photography topics. Please check back for new posts.
Previous posts are imports from a blogger blog. I used that blog mainly to post photos of shoots I have done. I’m going to continue to do that as well as post informative photography posts.

HQphotography.com new features
I just wanted to take the time to point out a couple new features located at www.hqphotography.com!
1. HQ Photography now has a link under each photo where users can add a comment! This gives HQ Photography users a way to interact and discuss photos that they like (or don’t like). Just look for the link under each and every photo!
2. On the category pages, you can now hover over the small thumbnails to get a pop up image of the bigger photo along with the description. So now you don’t have to click on the small thumbnail to see a larger image, unless you are ready to buy!
Also, on the category pages, you can add prints straight to your cart!
3. On the bottom of the homepage (www.hqphotography.com), there is now a feed that shows the 5 newest photos added to HQ Photography!
4. You can now see at least 4 columns of thumbnails on the category pages rather than 2. This way you are able to view more photos at once!
I have included a screen shot to show you how the pop up image looks on the category pages.
