I know I always say it, but how is time going so fast?! Just the other day I was capturing Katie & Charlotte’s wedding, then maternity, then newborn session,and 6 months, and now a big one year old?! Time has flown by this year!

Here are a few of my many, many favorites…

Charlotte & Katie thanks once again for trusting me to capture your darling family. Molly is such a stunner, and clearly is a lucky girl to have two doting mamas. I just adore all of you! You know what’s next right? Blog comment challenge time! If you can get 30 people to make a comment on this little post I will throw in a set of brag books for you on the house.

Stephanie & Jason are married!

10.08.12

Someone recently asked me about why I love to capture weddings? I thought for a moment and told them the reason weddings are so important to me is because it is the height of a happy day. Everyone (generally) is happy to be there, happy for the couple, and happy to participate in one of our most joyful traditions. Each wedding is different, but the common thing you see at every wedding are the smiles. Stephanie & Jason proved the rule, the joy that day was off the charts. Friends, family and everyone involved had a great time and showed it. Even the delicious roasted whole pig was sporting a cigar & a grin. It was in short a great day.

Venue: Wine Country Farm

Her Dress: The Bridal Gallery

His Suite: Mr. Formal

Catering: Haagenson’s Catering

Cake:

Here are a few of my many favorites from the day:

Stephanie & Jason thanks again for trusting me to capture your big day. It was my pleasure! I had a great time meeting all of your friend’s & family as well. I hope you two had an amazing honeymoon. I will be done with the whole set very soon. I hope you enjoyed your sneak peek! Friends & Family please feel free to leave a comment below if you would like to see the whole gallery when it is ready.

such a princess…

10.08.12

Sweet & beautiful Lucy Mae was so good for me. I first heard about this little princess when her auntie called me wanting to set up a gift certificate for her Mama’s baby shower. Even before she was born Miss Lucy had people fawning over her, and excited to see her sweet face. While talking to her aunt and Mama prior to our session I knew this would be a good one. We chatted about pink tutus & chubby babies, I was excited to meet her too by the end. So when the day came to finally set eyes & camera lens on the little princess we all had high hopes. Lovely Lucy did not disappoint. She was so good for me! Sleepy, curly, and oh the cute chubby cheeks! She was even good and humored Daddy & his favorite football team for a few shots.

Here are a few of my many, many favorites..

Ashley & Josh thanks again for having me into your home and for trusting me to capture your darling girl. She was just perfect. I hope you are enjoying your little lady, and getting some sleep these days! I will have your whole set for you view soon. For now I would love to offer you a little blog challenge. If you can get 30 people to comment on this post, I will throw in a darling set of brag books. So leave some love people!

Beautiful pictures of an incredible family. Lucy is quite the adorable, little princess!!! Great photos.
Kathryn Talley-CrinklawOctober 15, 2012 - 10:44 am
The pictures are simple and beautiful! The way the photographer caught the shimmering blue in Lucy’s eyes made them look like liquid pools. It’s not every day a photographer can do that! And who doesn’t love the Detriot Lions? These photos captured this family perfectly and everything they love…..are there photos of the dogs too?

FYI Bjorn & Dominique are super cute

10.05.12

To say that Bjorn and Dominique are super cute is kind of an understatement. To say we laughed while taking these photos would also be an understatement. We had so much fin hiking around Rocky Butte park, talking about weddings, families and dogs. We really did laugh a lot, I think Dominique wins the prize though for cutest giggle face.I could go on and on about how charming , funny and utterly in love these two are, but for now I will just leave you with the photographic proof.

Here are a few of my many favorites from our session..

Bjorn & Dominique thanks again for laughing at my cheesy jokes, and being so fun to work with. I am really, really looking forward to your wedding in just a few short weeks! I hope you enjoyed the sneak peek! For now I would love to offer you a blog comment special. If you can get 30 people to comment on this post i will throw in an 11×14 wall print on the house. So leave some love people!
