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 [...]
Planning for your portraiture session
I get a lot of clients who have never had their photo taken professionally before and they are quite overwhelmed as far as what to do or where to begin. It hit me today that it would prove quite useful to put together a nice guide that can work as a sort of worksheet to [...]
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 [...]
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

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 :)

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 [...]
Free Fifteen-Minute Fall Sessions Take II
So last Saturday I attempted a “fifteen minute free fall portraiture session” promotional on the quad at UW. It failed because of my lack of preparedness and foresight. But this time it will go much better, I am certain! This time I have a few volunteers helping me out, AND the notice is a little [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
