Ashley March Photo Shoot
I need to start coming up with better names for shoots :)
Ashley and I took pictures for about half an hour on Friday, mostly so I could practice some manual techniques on my camera. Things went pretty well — although there has to be a more streamlined and time effective way to achieve what [...]
Nicole February Photo Shoot
A couple weeks ago, I took my dear friend Nicole out on the town for a little photo shoot. We’ve had great weather here in the northwest the last couple weeks and I wanted to take advantage of it, and couldn’t think of anyone better to shoot than Nicole! I spent a lot of time [...]
Tommy & Ashley Engagement Session
Tommy Ashley Engagement from Elyse Ku Felts on Vimeo.
Tommy and Ashley are getting married August 28, 2010. I was more than happy to have the opportunity to take their engagement photos for them (a) because they’re super cute and (b) because Tommy is my brother-in-law and Ashley is my soon to be sister-in-law, and I [...]
Toni Maternity Session
Toni Maternity from Elyse Ku Felts on Vimeo.
Casey and Toni are Randy’s cousin and cousin-in-law, respectively. Way back on August 7 when we got married, before the ceremony, Toni and Casey went to the doctors to see if their suspicions were correct and they were pregnant … the results were positive, and later, they discovered [...]
Courtney & Trevor Sibling Shoot
A little less than a week before Christmas, Courtney messaged me about getting photos of her and her brother done for Christmas. I told her we could certainly take them before Christmas, but that there was no guarantee they would be ready by then. Luckily for all of us, she agreed regardless and we ran [...]
Leanna & Michael Engagement Session
Leanna and Michael are getting married July 26, 2010 at the Lairmont Manor (coincidentally, the same location where Randy and I got hitched this past August!), and Leanna contacted me to do their wedding photos. We went to high school together way back in the day and I hadn’t heard from her or seen her [...]
Kristi & Jeremy Wedding
At long last, Kristi and Jeremy’s wedding photos! If you missed their engagement photos, you can see them here.
This wedding was hands down one of the most joyful weddings I have ever been to. And boy, did Kristi dance. She might have been pregnant, she might have been wearing a 50 million pound dress, [...]
Kristi & Jeremy Engagement Session
Talk about people I haven’t seen since high school! Way back in the day when I just liked my hubby Randy, I used to hang out with her and her ex-boyfriend and Randy all the time. By the time Randy and I started dating, she and her ex had split and I suddenly never saw [...]
Kiley & Ross Sibling Shoot
I graduated from high school with Kiley back in 2007, and have not seen her since then at all. She contacted me to do photos of her and her brother, Ross for a Christmas present for her parents, and we set off to Gas Works Park and the Fremont area to get some photos done [...]
Hayley Fall Fifteen
Hayley was the only non-volunteer who showed up for Fall Fifteen photos last weekend, and I’m so glad she came! Every so often I get a batch of photos I am extremely happy with and this is one of them! :) And I just have to share this funny story, haha, don’t get upset with [...]
Katie Fall Fifteen
Katie also came out to volunteer and help with my Fall Fifteen shoot last weekend! We got some really good shots of her that I’m quite proud of and happy with! Thanks so much for all your help, Katie, I hope these photos make the time we spent out there worth it! :D
See the album [...]
Kyle Fall Fifteen
Kyle came out last weekend to help with my second Free Fifteen Minute Fall Sessions and I took some photos of him as a thank you. He was willing to climb up and around things at Gasworks Park which made these photos pretty fun :)
See the album on facebook! You’ll need to become a fan [...]
Randy Fall Portraits
A couple weeks ago, the same day I took Jeff and Lin’s portraits, I took some of my super handsome husband Randy. :) I wasn’t nearly as pleased with the color versions of these shots as I was the sepia and black and white. Sometimes that happens though and that’s okay. :) I still really [...]
Toni Headshots
On Sunday I took Randy’s cousin-in-law out for some headshots for her real estate business. We chatted a little bit on a beautiful, slightly foggy morning at Bothell Landing which is a magnificent park I had never seen before and cannot wait to get the opportunity to photograph again! Anyway, I think Toni’s shots came [...]
Jeff & Lin Portraits
Yesterday I was trying to do a free fifteen minute photo session Saturday, but it did not go so well… but that’s okay because I learned a lot about what to do next week when I try it again (details coming). In any case, I took pictures of my husband Randy, and later, Randy’s cousin [...]
Tom & Carol Portraits
These photos are a little late being posted here on the blog, though they’ve been on facebook for a couple of weeks. I took photos of my mom and dad as a belated anniversary gift. I think they’re a pretty cute couple :)
We weren’t out too long as it was an unseasonably hot September day [...]
Family H
David found me on Craigslist and was trying to find a photographer to document his wife’s return. Both he and his wife are in the military and have been trading off terms, essentially. He had not seen his wife for almost a year when she came, and neither had their two children! I went out [...]
Marianne, Celtic Warrior
Marianne is a musician and describes herself as:
Warrior Danika’s ancestry is of Royalty from the lush hills of Ireland. Once a family of the reigning kingdom, through the mystery of destiny, were outcast as a Gypsies. Now Warrior Danika walks this beloved land as a Warrior Queen, Strong, Powerful, Equipped to Win. She has faced [...]
Nick & Gabrielle Boudoir
I took these shots back in February, but it took me a while to get them posted because of communication-tag with the clients. This was my first experience with “boudoir” intimate shots, and I’m pretty pleased with the results.
See the album on facebook! You’ll need to become a fan of Elyse Kufeldt Photography to [...]
Dan and Amber Portraits
My portfolio is pretty lacking in the couple department, which is why I asked my friend Amber if I could take pictures of her and her boyfriend Dan the next time he came to town. At the start of the session, Dan informed me that he wanted no “corny” pictures. And that he didn’t want [...]
Natalie Photoshoot
On Saturday I took my friend Natalie out to Gasworks Park in Seattle for a little photo shoot. We had to spend a little bit of time getting her to loosen up in front of the camera, but once we did, she had a lot of fun and offered up a lot of great opportunities [...]
Jaunt at Snoqualmie Falls
Randy decided to take Nicole, Kelly and I to Snoqualmie Falls. It was a particularly rainy day, and we got there after stuffing ourselves (okay, maybe that was only me) at the Family Pancake House. It was super slippery on the rocks, and I feared for my camera, but we survived!
See the album on facebook! [...]
Katie ANTM Shoot
My friend Katie approached me the other day, needing a selection of new portraits for her upcoming closed audition for America’s Next Top Model. I took her out and about Shoreline and Edmonds for a fun little model shoot.
See the album on facebook! You’ll need to become a fan of Elyse Kufeldt Photography to comment [...]
Lake Sammamish Boat Day
Wes, Randy’s brother and Riverside Youth Pastor had an annual Lake Sammamish boat day today, though by the time I got there it was mostly a “Let’s take Caleb out and see how he does on the boat/intertube” day. :) First try did not go so well and I wished I had a longer lens, [...]
