Newborn | Parker
Parker is baby boy number two for one of my favorite families. I can’t believe how much he looks like his big brother Grant. I snapped a few shots and almost had to do a double take. If you can’t read the cute shirts their Mom made – it’s a take from “Stepbrothers” — “Did…
Newborn | Paul
This little guy has quite the story about his entrance into this world. Paul arrived early; born right during the middle of our solar eclipse last month. How neat is that? He’s a lucky guy too. He is incredibly loved by his amazing family. At four and two, Mark & Katherine were SO good with…
Family | The Buss Family
I always have the best time with this family and they keep me laughing. Also, the light – it was so warm and dreamy for their session. Each year they open their home to exchange students who they include in our shoots. I think it’s such a great experience for Bella to develop a relationship…
Family | The Bates-Rudig Family
These girls are always keep me smiling and laughing for our session. I’ve been shooting them since Tessa was just a baby and now this little girl is heading to kindergarten. I can’t believe how quickly they grow up. Thanks again for another great shoot!
Family | The Braun Family
It’s been awhile since I’ve seen the Braun family. I think Landon was still a baby and so I was thrilled to hear from them and we fell right back in step. I love clients who always make it feel like I’m just at the park with friends instead of “working”. We had a magical…
Family | The Flink Family
Last time I saw Charlotte she was barely crawling and now this little towhead is running and climbing; flashing that adorable smile all over the place. She took to me right away and wanted me to pick her up and hold her and hand and I fell in love. I didn’t want to give her…
Baby’s 1st Year | Claire: 1 Year
It’s hard to believe this little girl is “graduating” from my Baby’s 1st Year plan already! I’ve been lucky enough to shoot both she and her brother since they were babies. I have loved following their journey and made a great friend in their Mama along the way. Happiest of birthdays, sweet Claire. I hope…
Cake Smash | Claire
This little cutie is turning one in a few days so we celebrated early with her cake smash. Claire was pretty timid about it and preferred to just touch the icing with her fingertips. She might not have been too sure about what to do with her cake but she sure looked adorable! Happy 1st…
Family | The McDonnell Family
I met this family several years ago after they won an auction I had participated in. I’m so lucky that they’ve continued to ask me to capture their family pictures each year. They are a loving, warm and beautiful family and make my job really easy! We had perfect weather and found the most gorgeous…
Baby’s 1st Year | Wyatt: 6 Months
Wyatt reminds me so much of his sister. They both have those big soulful brown eyes and love sticking out their tongues. They are always both so happy. We met up Saturday morning in downtown Portland for Wyatt’s 6 month session. I have never seen this neat raccoon piano before and have no idea where…
