Children & Family Portrait Photography by Daniel Sheehan
couple of times I
Two years ago I photographed the baby belly of Molly when she was 9 months pregnant on a Sunday afternoon. Then on tuesday the bella baby Harper came popped out of the belly and into the world. Although I have photographed her a couple of times I wanted to post an update now that she just turned 2. Harper loves playing “Where’s the baby” with me. What a sweet child.

George Carofino called and asked us to make some family portraits of his son Brad’s family for a christmas present. The day he selected was this beautiful sunny December before Christmas. Brad and his wife Katy lived very close to Carkeek Park so Jana and I went down and it was wonderful filtered sunlight up on the bluff and after some group pictures we went down to the beach. As I started shooting down there the clouds parted and it started getting warm What a day. Here are a few of the highlights of Brad and Katy’s family with Brad’s father and mother George and Dianne. Here is a link to the web gallery with all of your pictures George. family pictures
Gasworks Park was where I met up with the Greg Campbell family for a portrait secession. It is a great location and has a great variety of different backdrops to choose from including this industrial look to the skyline over LAke Union to the huge green hill.
On Saturday, I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing the Govender Family on the occasion of Nana’s 60th birthday. They had a celebration at the Four Seasons Hotel. Here a few of my favorites. This is a link to a web gallery with all of their pictures.

An old picture of Claire as a baby in beautiful July evening light.
The Taproot Theatre acting studio put on a production of “Law & Order, Fairy Tale Unit” yesterday, the culmination of a week long summer camp for children interesting in acting. Claire was interested and took part mainly as the character Pinochio, who could not tell a lie without it hurting her nose. Below the cast takes a bow at the end of the performance. Thanks to Sara Willy, Education Director at Taproot Theatre Company For more pictures see Children’s Theatre Pictures gallery.
Just got this picture from my good friend Bruce Dugdale at Glaziers Camera. He took this of Claire when they had a photo festival and fair. I brought CLaire and she was excited at first but was a little disappointed when she learned there were no rides. The Ducati made her happy though and she donned an appropriate expression.
Saturday was a beautiful day and I went around to photograph Tegan and her family. I had first met her a couple of days ago when Margo, her mom, and I were at a dinner aparty with an old friend who was back in Seattle for a short visit. We had a grand reunion and so it came to pass that I was asked to come and do some pictures of Tegan who is now 9 months old. What a sweetheart. Tegan in Welsh means pretty and so she is. Here are some of my favorite shots from the portrait session. Here is a link to the web gallery of all of the family pictures.
Patricia was surprised to see me upon first entering Suzzane’s house for her 90th birthday party. I had gone up to Victoria just for her party. One does not turn ninety very often and I had to be there to see her face. I have uploaded all of the photographs to a web gallery here: birthday party photos Below are a sample of a few of my favorites.
