The Doty Family
Erin and Justin are expecting their second little boy later this fall. Big brother Caspian (seriously, his eyes (!) so beautiful!) is really excited to meet his little brother and gave Mommy’s tummy lots of pats and kisses tonight. They are such a wonderful and loving family and I’m so excited for their new little…
Georgia: 3 months
There isn’t enough space on the page to explain how much I love this family. I’ve gotten to know Jessica, Derek & their sweet baby girl Georgia over the past several months and I feel so lucky to count them as friends. I was anxious to see how much Georgia’s grown and she was just a…
Kerry & Mike’s Wedding Day
Kerry & Mike celebrated their wedding day in front of a small group of their closest friends and family. Together they are now a family of four with their adorable twin girls, Krista & Ava. The ceremony and reception were held outdoors (love our beautiful September weather!) at the O.O. Howard House at Fort Vancouver.…
Charlotte Austen
This was probably one of my longer newborn session but not because of an unhappy baby, it’s because I’m pretty sure I could sit and drink coffee and talk all day with Adam & Angie. I just adore this couple and Adam kept laughing at how alike Angie and I are. Meeting new people is…
Marissa: Class of 2014
I spent this beautiful and sunny September night in the orchard with Marissa. (The lighting was amazing. Love.) Marissa just started her senior year fresh off an exciting summer. She is part of the Oregon Crusaders, a competitive drum and bugle corps and they took part in several national competitions and the world championship this…
Makenna: 3 months
I met up with Abbey & Austin again to get pictures of their sweet little girl, Makenna. I haven’t seen her since our newborn session and I can’t believe she’s already 3 months old. We had a wonderful morning in the apple orchard. It was the perfect setting for a beautiful (but warm!) fall day.…
The Hanson Family
I took Kenna’s senior pictures a year ago and now she’s heading off to college so the Hanson’s wanted to get some family pictures before they left. I’ve known this family for a really long time and they are so much fun. We had a great time tonight and laughed a lot (just look at…
The Peterson Boys
I ended my busy weekend of shoots on a high note – photographing one of my favorite families! Eric & Amanda are very dear friends of ours. Eric was actually a groomsman in our wedding and although they don’t live here they were in town for another wedding. So, we met up in downtown Portland…
Big Sister Bryn
Sweet little Bryn is probably the best two year old I’ve ever shot. She was so much fun and would look right at the camera and flash the biggest grin. She along with her beautiful Mom & Dad are getting ready to welcome another little girl into the family later this fall. I think she’s…
The Smith Family
I first met the Smith family last winter when I shot their family reunion but today we met up at Lewis & Clark College to take some pictures of just their family of five. These kiddos are so fun and photogenic and then you add in their two-year-old pup, Rocky and some sunshine and you…
