Introducing Richard
I spent the morning with the Toth family who brought Ricky home from the hospital earlier this week. This adorable boy joins his big sister, Addie. She was so sweet today. She would bring us his binky when he cried and gave him lots of hugs. He’s sure a lucky little guy!
Rylan: Class of 2014
Senior portrait season is starting to wrap up but I have a few left on my calendar and they are always such fun shoots. Rylan and I had great time tonight walking around Jenkins Estate. He’s a great guy, very smart and actively involved in band as a trumpet player. He plans to study engineering…
The Spanish Family
I first met Evan & Ellie earlier this summer for their first photo session. Tonight, Kelly wanted a larger family session to celebrate the twins 1st birthday and aren’t they the cutest family? I just love them. We had a great evening at the oh-so beautiful Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden. If you haven’t been to…
Kevin + Kara + Baby
Kevin & Kara are expecting their first child, a boy, later this fall. Aren’t they adorable? They are such a cute couple and we had a fun morning at Oregon Heritage Farms. Kara wanted the shot with Kevin holding the pumpkin, so we went to the perfect spot. Congratulations you two, I can’t wait to…
The Brown Family
I haven’t seen the Brown family since Sterling’s newborn session so it was great to see them again. We spent a wonderful evening at Jenkins Estate. Big brother, Greyson recently turned two and can make almost any animal sound in the book. It was adorable. I love watching all of these children grow up through my…
Ethan: Class of 2014
I met Ethan at a wedding earlier this summer and was excited to shoot his senior pictures. After getting rained out this past weekend we couldn’t have picked a better night to reschedule. Ethan has found a new love of the guitar and I was happy that he brought it along for the session. Have…
The Edwards Family
As Britney & I watched the forecast for today’s shoot, she told me they were in and would “embrace the rain”. Lucky for me because rain is what we got! Thanks to a tiny break in the showers to start and their giant umbrellas, we braved the downpour together. The Edwards are such a sweet…
Waiting for a Baby Boy
I think this might have been one of my rainiest sessions to date but the Hindman’s were complete troopers and we made it work! They’re expecting a baby boy later this fall and I can’t wait to meet him. Thanks for braving the rain with me this morning!
The Gobel Family
When you live in Portland, even an unseasonably strong storm can’t stop a photo shoot! Fortunately, we caught a little break in the rain but the Gobels were amazing and came ready to get wet! Thank you for such a fun morning. I always love spending time with you!
Ryan & Mayu
I wore many hats for this wedding, sister of the groom, mother of the flower girl and photographer but it was wonderful to formally welcome my new sister, Mayuko into the family. They celebrated with a small, intimate ceremony in front of close friends & family on the beautiful island of Maui. It was an…
