Art Cottage | creative spaces


the cottage.

I am so excited to share one of my new favorite places with you. Our art studio, a rustic tiny space, with old french doors, whimsical windows and a little front porch. 
It's a creative little get-away in our backyard... away from the phones, internet and computers. 
A place to just be inspired by nature, open the doors wide, listen to the birds, the water falling softly into the pond and laughter of our kids playing in the grass. 

Art, painting is my first love. I love being able to create either on canvas or from behind the lens. 
But, there is always something about wet paint and texture... being able to start with a blank canvas and create something from nothing. It inspires the way I shoot as a photographer. 

Here is a little glimpse inside our art cottage. It's still a work in progress... someday soon the outside will get a paint job. Still deciding on the perfect color. 
I'd love your suggestions!




You can see more of my artwork, an inquire on paintings at my website here.

What inspires you? Do you have a creative corner or space in your home? 
 I'd love it if you would share about it in the comments below! :)

Love,
Heather Hurzeler

Home Sweet Home | Snohomish


We are starting to get settled into our new place! 
Don't miss out on our discount offer for this month, we would love to meet some new faces here in Snohomish and extend this coupon to our past clients as well. 

Welcome!!

Our new home is a 1901 Craftsman just a couple minute walk from the heart of downtown Snohomish, we adore it and all it's charm and quirkiness. She was built with so much tender loving care and one of our favorite things about her is the backyard sanctuary.

 We may dedicate a small little section of our blog, "This Old House" to share a little more personal side of the "going ons" and before/afters of the many home projects we have ahead of us. We would also love to have you over to our new home studio... don't mind the dust as we polish this old lady back up to a beautiful shine! ;)


We spent this past week cleaning, doing yard work and some major fix it projects around the house.
There was a house under all that growth, check out the before/after of the front after just a week! 
Those blackberry bushes and thorns are mean stuff, we are covered in scratches... but it was worth it! ;)


Just a tiny tid bit from our week:
1. Slugs are really gross, collected and got rid of bucket fulls from the backyard.... yes bucket fulls! bleck!
2. This Arizona girl learned what a sump pump was and how to use & clear one. We have two!
3. We love old homes and can't wait to share the secrets of ours with you!


Welcome to our garden... as you can see we have a sweet spot for garden gnomes. 
Our yard is now home to many little fellows tucked up & hidden among the flowers. 
I think they add just the right amount of quirky artsy flair to keep the garden from feeling to formal.


What glorious weather and sunshine we have been having this first week of July! We have a hand full of slots available this month a great time for a family session & engagement sessions!

Drop us an e-mail or call to say hi! 
We'd love to hear from you as we get settled in the city of Snohomish.

Love,
Your Photographers
The Hurzelers

the Branch family | Edmonds Childrens Photographer

:: The Branch family ::
 Our session started in my home studio with this little sweetheart, she is celebrating her 1st birthday this month! With those pretty brown eyes and long lashes she is going to be a daddy's girl for sure. ;)
 We headed down to the beach for the other half of our session.. it was a beautiful chilly fall day. I love the bare white branches of the trees behind them in these images, so fitting for "the Branch Family". ;) 
Merry Christmas Branch family, thank you for a fun session!!

City Lights | Seattle Artwork

:: City Lights | Seattle ::

I love my city, so happy to be able to call this place my home. 
This first painting is for my own home, since the others in the skyline series had all been sold.
If you have never been to Gas Works park, I'd recommend a trip... you get the most stunning view of the skyline!

One of my favorite things about downtown is how rich in arts it is. Artists & photographers who simply love what they do. Inspiration is everywhere. I took a few minutes from my day to watch another artist paint down at the park, talked with a local photographer in his gallery filled with stunning photos of beautiful reflections of Seattle... quirky strange sculptures and art are everywhere. I love it!

Here are a couple pieces of artwork I recently finished.

I love looking at it, but don't think I'll ever be brave enough to ride it. ;)
