what a great 6 years it has been

One thing about my job I love is watching families grown. One of the families I get to watch grow is the E family. We started out with one adorable little blond baby over 6 years ago, and now we are up two cute and smart kiddos. I remember when Simon was born, what a sweet baby boy. Last year we  even rocked the Halloween costumes. Man these guys have grown into darling kids. I love our yearly play-dates.

Check out our latest session…

Fun at the Fair!

Ages ago I did an engagement session at the Oregon State Fair… It was fun, and immediately became one of my all time favorite sessions. I still use that sample album time times. 😉

SO when this year the lovely Julie and Kris said they wanted to go back, but with their little girl along, I knew it was going to be great. We had so much fun! Bright colors, rides,  and of course fair food. It was such a great time!

Check out a few of my favorites…

Happy Autumn friends!

The kids are back in school, the leaves are turning, the coffee tastes like pumpkin…

It is also time to take those family photos!

If you want to set up photos showcasing the beautiful fall scenery now is the time! Email or call me any time to set it up. I still have lots of flexibility in both October & November, a little now in September. But the weather will turn at some point, and the leaves will fall, so let’s set it up now!  Click that contact form at the top of the page and let’s do this!

Fall leaves, cute babies and spit raspberries make me happy…

It was just a few months ago I met Otis and his adore able family. Well over the past spring and summer Mr. O has gotten bigger, and even more adorable. We had a great time hanging out one late summer morning recently, talking about the crazy weather, blowing raspberries and generally laughing. I loved capturing these guys in their element, on one of thier favorite trails.

Check out some of my favorites…

The S family 2015

How many times and ways can I say I adore the S family.

I have been photographing these guys for years, from a curly haired baby girl, two a new baby, and then a joyous family.

I have watched these guys go from a darling house in the city, to a super cool place in the country. I have photographed them bundled up in the winter, and on hot summer evenings.

Each time is special, wonderful and full of smiles.

Our last session was no different, we spent our evening picking black berries, sneaking over to the neighbors orchard, and giggling about kindergarten. It was my pleasure to capture these guys once again.

Here are my favs:
