skye + ben = love

06.17.13

Skye & Ben are hardcore. While planning their engagement session they were all about trekking outside in the rain and surly Oregon spring weather. Luckily we only ran into a few drops, but still I was impressed! We started in SE Portland with a delicious beer and some colorful murals before heading down to the waterfront. I really enjoyed getting to know these two in person (not just skype!) and hearing all about their big day. It is coming up soon!

Check out a few of my favorites!

Skye & Ben thanks again for being up for anything! I really enjoyed working with you two and capturing your smiles. So excited about your wedding right around the corner! I am almost done with the entire set. If you want to play along I do love a good blog comment contest. If you can get 30 people to comment I will throw in an 11×14 on the house!

So leave some love folks. 🙂

After many, many, many hours I am so excited to announce my new portfolio site is UP!

It was really, really hard to choose a handful of sessions & weddings to show off after having such an amazing last few years. I tried to show a really wide range of what I do, and who I capture. I hope you all like it, please feel free to share!

Rad little Rowynn is one!

06.06.13

I first met Chris & Cyndie at the super rad wedding of Katie & Jim last summer. We talked briefly of family & baby photos. I knew any friends of Katie & Jim wold be fun to work with, so when they contacted me to set up a session timed with their daughter’s first birthday I could not wait. Chris, Cyndie and the family were wonderful with work with. This family is sweet, charming and full of character. It really was my pleasure to capture them at this special time.

Here are a few of my favorites…

Cyndie & Chris thanks for having me into your home to capture your family. Your kids are AWESOME! I hope you enjoyed your sneak peek. I will have the whole gallery up very soon for you guys. For now I would love to offer you a blog challenge. If you can get 30 people to comment on this post I will throw in a set of brag books on the house. So leave some love friends.

Aurora is One!

05.31.13

Ahhhhhh, this is the life. A pretty day, a lovely park, a cute baby, a nice family. Really this is the life.

While most of my time as a professional photographer is in reality spent behind a computer editing photos and doing correspondence. So when I get the chance to spend a beautiful afternoon with an adorable baby it is pretty awesome. You might remember sweet Aurora from her newborn session here and 6 month session here. She is always super cute for me but our one year session was just perfect.

Here are a few of my favorite from our session together:

Josie thanks again for having me out to your neck of the woods to capture your sweet girl and family again. It was a pleasure to watch her grow this year. I hope you enjoyed the sneak peek, I will have the whole set up very soon!
