This year we moved the Fall Mini Sessions from our usual location at Sunny Day Tree Farm to Gabriel Park in SW Portland on a different day (for a host of reasons). Glad we did, because the weather was better and we had some pretty fall foliage colors to work with! Our family loves Gabriel […]

Yep.. my second son is now days away from turning TWO and I’m just now writing his birth story.  No judging, please.  When we were originally told his estimated due date, (7/7/17) my husband was really holding out for a 4th of July baby. I just laughed, because our first son was born 2 weeks […]

It’s so special to me that I’ve been photographing this sweet family since before little Mateo existed! We had quite the “active” photo shoot documenting Mateo at his 12 month Milestone Portrait Session. During our pre-session consultation we discussed doing some simple, timeless/modern portraits on white. His momma wanted to emphasize his sweet squishy bod […]

We were so grateful to have Granny P and Grandpa Clif (Brian’s dad) visit us from Dallas about 2 months after Noah was born (late Summer/August 2017). Yes, that long ago – hah. I’m playing catch up on life blogging.  We did a few Portland-y things while they were here, like visit the downtown waterfront […]

There’s something so special about capturing motherhood that just makes my heart skip a beat. This was such a dreamy motherhood portrait session in one of the neatest (hidden to me) parks in NW Portland. You could see Mt. St. Helens AND Mt. Hood from the top of the park and it was littered with […]

It was a dark and rainy January day as I headed up to her childhood home on Skyline Blvd in Portland…. The wind was pretty crazy. How were we going to get some nice outdoor shots? Welp, per usual, we made it work and doesn’t she look AMAZING?!! We did a few “outdoor” shots in […]

One of the prettiest spots in Downtown Portland (waterfront) is during about 2 weeks in the Spring when the Cherry Blossoms are out of control blooming. It’s become quite the popular spot so attempting photos without random folks in the frame is nearly impossible. We ventured down there so I could take a belly shot […]

We had a CRAZY (long, cold, difficult) winter this year. It snowed and iced several times across several months. It seemed like it would never end. This was the beginning of it so, of course we hurried outside to enjoy the beautiful snow in our own backyard. Little did we know it would snow MUCH […]
