Captured Moments by Christi bio picture

Welcome!

Hi, I'm Christi and I'm a custom portrait photographer from Gig Harbor, WA.  I'm a wife to a wonderful husband and mother to two very active growing boys whom I love to capture with my camera.

I have found my passion in photography and design and I love what I do.  I feel very blessed to be able to share it with you.  I'm using this blog site to share photo session sneak peaks, current specials, and things I'm up to.  So... check back often and don't forget to leave comments, I'd love to hear what you think.

Thanks for stopping by,

Enjoy!

2011 Senior

Congratulations Ms. “J” you’re almost there.  Here is a preview of the senior session I shot on Tuesday.  What a fun time and what a sweet girl.  Ms. “J” was amazing to photograph and her wonderful friend Ms. “M” was awesome too, she was such a huge help.  I love having a friend or family member come along, sometimes I get so sucked into my camera I miss things and it’s nice to have an extra eye and an extra hand.  Thank you guys! Enjoy!

I love this shot, especially for Seniors.  Going off into the future!  Good Luck Ms. “J”.

Day 14 – Another Day in the Garden

Here is another shot from my rose garden.  One of these days I’m going to get out more and get creative, although I think this 30 days is going a little better than the last time I tried to do this.  Enjoy!

Day 13 – Super Fun Family

Sorry I didn’t post this last night, I crashed.  I shot this family yesterday so I thought I’d share one of the photos from the session.  I will post the full preview soon so stay tuned.  How fun is this photo.  Love it!!

Carol Harrold - One of the best family portraits I've ever seen.

Day 12 – 2011 Senior

I’m just going to post one of my favorites from the session today for my daily post and will post the full session after I’ve edited them.

Day 11 – Picnic

Day 10 – On the Puget Sound

Today I have a few pictures taken on Puget Sound.  What a beautiful weekend for boating and hanging out with the husband.   Enjoy!

Starting off the trip down to Olympia, here is Mt. Rainier.

We made it down to Olympia without getting lost :)

Headed back toward the Harbor.

The sun setting over the Olympics.

Beautiful Day, and what a way to beat the HEAT!

Day 9 – The Narrows in a new light

I shot the Narrows in the fog on Day 2 and this time I shot it boating underneath it with the brilliant blue sky.  Amazing how the weather can change the mood of a photograph, no wonder it changes our moods too sometimes.

Jenny Z - Wow Christi, these are amazing!

Day 8 – The Harbor

We went out to dinner last night in the harbor.  I love the feel of the harbor and all the boats, dinner was good too.  We are spending the weekend on the water so I’m hoping to get some cool shots to post.

Day 7 – Sunburst

I have tried sunbursts before but have never gotten the results I got today.  I was reading another photographers blog and she was talking about how to get good sunbursts in your photos, so I took what I read and applied it and ended up with this.  This was shot at f/13 to get that sunburst.  Enjoy.

Amy - Amazing! And the shadows cast on the ground by the trees are beautiful too! Oh, the beauty in Gods creation!

Day 6 – Tumwater Falls

No better day than to spend it with an old friend taking pictures, hanging out and just talking!  These were taken at Tumwater Falls - a small piece of serenity in a fast paced political city.  Enjoy!

Amy - What a blessing to spend the day with you and so fun to watch your creative eye at work! Your peaceful capture of the falls is breathtaking! Sunny day, gorgeous surroundings, heartfelt conversation...beautiful friend! xoxo

admin - Thank you Amy:) It was so good to see you. Next time we'll do the Capitol.

Jenny Z - so so pretty!
