Sweet Elianna I Newborn Photography

What can I say? I absolutely loved working with little Elianna.. She was a photographer's dream - slept so well and let me pose her without much of a fight. And so, so pretty... A few of my favorites from our session....

Sherwood Family Portraits

I have been dying to photograph Laura & Jeff since the day I met them. They live down the street from me and are the sweetest people you could ever want to meet. Laura and I quickly became friends, as did our children. Our daughters are the same age and even my son is drawn to Laura's little girls. Oh, and did I mention their family is gorgeous!? After rescheduling a couple times, we finally managed to squeeze a session in between the showers we've been having. Laura & Jeff, thank you for finally allowing me to photograph your beautiful family. Here are a few of my favorites from our session.

Engagement in the Pearl

I love engagement sessions.

There's just something about new love that makes my heart sing. The knowing glances, the little touches, that look in their eyes...

Matthew & Elizabeth are no exception. I was honored to spend a beautiful fall day with them in the Pearl District of downtown Portland documenting the beginning of their lives together.

Matthew & Elizabeth, thank you so much for walking around downtown Portland with me on a very cold day. I hope the hot coffees kept you warm and the experience was fun for you both. I cannot wait for your wedding in May!

Lovely Campbell

Last week, I had the pleasure of photographing adorable little Campbell. This is not the first time I've photographed Campbell, but by far the most enjoyable. Three is such a fun age - and of course I'm not biased since my daughter is the same age. Not only did Campbell come dressed in the most adorable outfit, she gave me 1001 smiles (and a few hundred laughs).

Campbell, thank you for such an enjoyable session. You made my job so easy (and so much fun). Enjoy your sneak peek!

Happy Birthday, Reed!

Okay, okay. I know. I'm a terrible blogger. I won't deny it. But I promise, my heart is in the right place. I have good intentions and think about blogging often. I've been blessed with a lot of business this year in the form of weddings, engagements, babies, expectant mothers, and seniors. In an effort to keep up, some things have had to go. Unfortunately, my blog is one of those things.

About a month ago, one of my closest friends and I got together to photograph her little boy Reed, who had just turned 1. He might look familiar - he's graced the blog before. We set out to a new location (chosen by her, which I love) and got to work. I've said it before, and I'll say it again - I love my job! I got to spend the morning with a dear friend and her adorable baby and we even found time to have coffee. Reed wasn't really in the mood for photos, but we managed to work it out and he gave me a smile or two, and several really cute looks.

Here are some of my favorites from our session. Isn't he just the cutest?!
