BREAKING – El Dorado County Watch Alert

Possible Sasquatch Sighting – Po***ck Pines

At approximately golden hour on March 31st, a large, hairy individual was spotted enjoying a peaceful swing on private property near Inagahee Road. Witnesses report the creature appeared calm, contemplative, and in no rush to return to the shadows of legend.

“He looked so at home… like he’d finally found his inner child,” said one observer. “Frankly, he had better form on that swing than most of us.”

No signs of aggression. Just pure, unfiltered joy. Authorities confirm no damage was done—though several pinecones were mysteriously rearranged into what appeared to be a heart shape.

This marks the first verified case of a Sasquatch using recreational equipment in El Dorado County. Locals are advised to remain calm, stay respectful, and maybe dust off your own swing.

Because apparently, nobody can resist a good rope swing.

At Waterfall Portraits, we pride ourselves on capturing the inner beauty of all our clients—big or small, furry or not-so-furry.

Some say there’s nothing quite like the magic of a rope swing to bring out your truest smile… even if that smile belongs to an 8-foot-tall forest legend with size 22 feet and a mysterious scent of pine and mystery.

We treat all our clients like family—whether you’re a bride, a groom, or a bipedal cryptid swinging into your fairytale moment.

Happy April 1st to all our mythical, magical, and marvelous clients!

Thoughts on lighting up a wedding dress?

We were doing photos with led balloons and then I realized they could show through the dress. After a few minutes of stuffing balloons into the it looked like her dress was filled with fireflies! I love experimenting!
