Welcome Baby Girl


What a difference a year makes!  Last year, this sweet family vacationed at the Oregon Coast and hired me to take maternity-family portraits.  This year they were back.  Vacationing in the same spot, but this time with their darling baby girl.  They said they did the “no rain dance” and it worked because gray, rainy days gave way to a […]

One


I got to photograph this family when they were expecting their daughter.  And then I got to come to their home to take newborn photos.  Now their sweet munchkin is one and I was invited back for another photo session.  Isn’t she sweet?  They are such a great family and I’m so lucky to help document the growth in their […]

Maisie


Maisie, you are the sweetest little pumpkin and such a trooper to go along with our nod to Ann Geddes with our vegetable props. You have the coolest parents. Artistic, intelligent, witty, musical…  Your Dad can build stuff. Your Mom sings like an angel.  They preserve heirlooms that tell stories and this is evident in your nursery and in your […]

Baby Girl


Oh baby!  I was so happy to hear that Rachita and Kunal were expanding their family. It was such a privilege to see this sweet family twice in a matter of weeks.  Rachita and Kunal are as genuine and kind as they come. They love each other, are great parents, and are just all around fun to be around. And […]

Joy


The Sturgis family is full of joy.  It’s what I noticed right away when I met them and their laughter, joy and love for each other carried throughout their entire photo session.  Family is such a gift.  I was so blessed to work with this family who clearly understood and treasured the gift of each other. Thank you Sturgis family […]

On Toddlers and Babies…


The Buisman family won an Offering I donated to the Visible Grace auction.  It was a blessing to meet them and photograph their darling family.  Life with toddlers and babies is so moment to moment, hands on, snuggles, love, chasing, comforting, protecting, cajoling…  It’s messy and lovely, exhausting and filled with big emotions. I’m removed enough from our Years in […]

Baby Makes Seven


Is there anything more precious than a newborn babe?  The fuzzy head.  The tiny fingers and toes.  Soft little ears.  The noises they make as they nestle in.  Goodness… They are such a gift. It was an honor to be invited into the Caruso’s home to document the addition of baby Theo – bringing their sweet family unit to a […]

Foggy Fall Morning


Fall in Oregon is unpredictable.  You never know what you’re going to get.  When I left my house to drive to the Moyer’s photo session it was bright, beautiful sunshine.  I crested a little mountain and drove right into thick fog that didn’t lift for miles.  Thankfully the fog adds mystery and beauty to portraits and we were able to […]

Fall Vineyards and Cute Boys


Gaironn is one of the most efficient people I’ve worked with and I LOVE efficiency!  She knew when and where she wanted her photo session and had a clear vision for what she wanted to accomplish within the session.  I loved meeting her and her darling sons. They were so cute and so sweet. She also happens to help operate […]

Happy First Birthday


This sweet family is new to Oregon from the Midwest.  Their baby boy turned one recently and they hired me to take their first professional family portraits.  What an honor.  And isn’t their little guy adorable?  Two days after their session, the leaves on that tree were all on the ground so we timed it perfectly to capture the brilliance […]
