Schedule a Short and Sweet Session on September Saturday 25th and I’ll donate the $100 session fee to Get Hitched Give Hope. They’re an amazing Seattle non profit that raises money for Making Memories Breast Cancer Foundation which grants wishes for Stage 4 breast cancer patients. Grab some tissue and read about some of the wishes granted by Making Memoires .
And just in case the idea of raising money to help make the short time someone with stage 4 breast cancer has a little sweeter isn’t motivation enough I’m including a $50 art credit as my way of thanking you for helping me help others. Or double your impact by scheduling back to back sessions with a friend and I’ll give each of you $100 to spend on custom art from your session.
Short and Sweet Sessions are about 20 minutes and take place at one of our preferred locations. They’re a great alternative to cheesy school photos and work well for anyone wanting a fresh headshot, quick yearbook image, or updated picture of the family for cards this holiday season. The $100 session fee includes a portrait planning guide, 20 minute session, and 8-12 finished images to choose from.
You can also participate by scheduling a Standard, Adventure, or Immersed Session during the month of September. Tell me you’d like to be a giver and I’ll donate $100 of your session fee to Get Hitched Give Hope.

Summers in Seattle are short but stunning. Most summer swim teams finish their season just as the sun starts shining leaving us the month of August to take a break and play. And because I like playing as much as anyone I’ve created special Pool Party Sessions for the month of August where I hope create the craziest, wackiest, most outrageous set of underwater portraits yet.
The summer pool party event is open to all Sacha Blue fans and followers and is a great opportunity to reconnect and have some refreshing fun. Simply gather 5 or more friends/families and provide space at your pool and I will waive the session fees. Put together a group of ten or more and I’ll also give each family a complimentary 5×7 print of their favorite underwater image. Now is the time to play, so let’s get creative and who knows, you may just end up in a magazine too.
Ready to schedule your Pool Party? Not sure just how to be outrageous? Give us a call – we have a long list of ideas and would love to collaborate with you.
And just to get the creative juices flowing here are a few favorites from the past:

The main goal with today’s session was to get one great yearbook friendly photo of Ameila. While taking a quick peak at her back yard I found years of gardening had created a space that seemed designed just for portraits and may have gotten a teeny bit carried away with things. Great light, perfect location, and a photogenic subject make for a fun afternoon. Amelia made me remember why I love working with high school seniors and resulted in dozens of pictures I love but for now here are just a few:
I’m excited to have finally been given the go ahead to announce to the world that my underwater bridal portrait “Immersed” was chosen as the grand prize winner of the 2010 Look of Love Wedding Photography Contest by American Photo Magazine. It was also selected as the winner of the Trash the Dress category by Destination Weddings and Honeymoon magazine.
The image appears across two pages in the July/August issue of American Photo (shown below) along with information about the session and a “Trade Secrets” feature article about my underwater portrait work. You can also find it in the latest edition of Destination Weddings and Honeymoons which is followed by an article containing great destination wedding planning advice by myself and the other winning photographers. The online version of the article can be found here: 35 Photography Tips for Destination Weddings and both magazines are available at bookstores now.
And since I never really posted a full recap of their session I figure now is a great time to show off a few more of my favorites:
I had so much fun with Jake and Melissa and am looking forward to my next adventure in Honolulu in October.
