Mom blogger and photographer Stasha Becker has gained over 113,000 Instagram followers with her beautiful pictures of her life in the Pacific Northwest (https://instagram.com/northwestmommy/). Specifically, it's the gorgeous photos she takes of her 7-year-old son, their two Newfoundland dogs and Arabian horse that attract a lot of attention.
Every day since 2011, Becker has been taking a photo of her son Julian and their black Newfoundland Max in front of their garage door so that her husband -- a naval officer -- can keep up with the family while he travels for work. "It grew from there and now it's just something we do, document our daily happiness on my Instagram account," she told The Huffington Post.

Eight-year-old Max has been by Julian's side ever since the boy was born, and the family adopted the brown Newfie Bruce after his birth two years ago. "Bruce adores Max and follows everything Max does," the mom said. The Arabian gelding named Vizon joined the family five years ago when they moved to Whidbey Island, Washington.
Though her son Julian is closest to his "big brother" Max, Becker said the little boy loves all of the animals in his family, and their bonds are evident in the beautiful photos she takes for her blog (http://northwestmommy.com/) and Instagram account, Northwest Mommy.
"I really enjoy hearing from others that our photos made them smile," she said. "We have such a good life, and if by documenting it we can spread that attitude around we have accomplished more then I ever hoped for."
"Beyond everything else though," she continued, "I am so happy that both my husband and I as parents and my son in his future can look at my Instagram account and re-live the memories my photos hold."
