It seems like a million years ago I met Jamie, she was my best friend’s annoying little sister. Since then, she has grown into an amazing, loving, caring woman, who I am honored to call a friend. It has been my pleasure to capture her wedding, maternity, and multiple baby sessions. I was sad when the news broke she would be moving to Alaska, but so happy for this wonderful families next adventure. Her boys will always have a special place in my heart, so it was a fun morning of catching up and playing with them when we took the photos below.

Check out a handful of my favorites. 🙂

Jam-Jam thank you for trusting me with your darling boys. I had a great time catching up and seeing you all! I am so thrilled you have made a home that makes you so happy up in the great white north!

This particular session has been in the works for a while now… It is kind of funny how long. I was starting to think this family were CIA agents, secret vampires or ninja’s, but no they are just awesome, cute, busy folks.

We had a great time taking a bit of a nature walks a few weeks ago. We dealt with a little rain, but had a wonderful time.

Check out the images we made!

Carey & family it was so lovely to meet you all! I had a blast photographing your shenanigans. I hope your weekend visit was a good one.

I will let you know when the whole set it ready!

I always love hearing how people choose names for their children. It is such a personal choice, that is so very public. For our family, we did research, family tree studies, and then found names that just felt right. For many folks names come from important people in their lives.

For one of my favorite clients, their sweet girl was named for a dear friend of Mama’s.

I have heard about this beloved friend for years as I have spent time with this family, so it was SO fun to meet her while she was in town visiting. It was so fun to see the interaction of this family, and darling baby girl as she loved on her “Auntie Aurora”.

Check out some of my favorite images from our session together:

Josie & family, thanks again for choosing me to capture this special time in your lives! Your darling girl was so fun to capture as always! I hope you all had a wonderful visit, and safe travels.

I should have the whole set done shortly.

I have been working with the M family for many years. They have adorable kiddos that are always fun to capture, usually Mom and Dad are in the mix too, but this spring we did a special set up. We did a whole session with Grandma & Grandpa while they were in town. It was so fun to see this group of lovely little ones I know so well, play all morning with their grandparents.

Here are a few of my favorites:

Ellie & Louis thanks so much for visiting me while you were in town! It was a pleasure capturing you all with your darling grand kids. I hope you all had a great time in Portland, and a safe travels home!

I will have the full set done shortly!
