How has it been a year since I first captured darling baby Brin? Her newborn session was one of my favorite last year, and here she is a darling, giggling, toddler! Just look at those curls, and those stunning blue eyes! Gah she is so cute it is just too much. I had a great time playing with her and Grandma & Grandpa’s farm in the Banks Hills. Warm day, nice people, cute baby, I really have the best job ever.
Here are a few of my favorites so far…
Tasha thank you again for trusting me to capture Brin’s first year. She is just darling, and it has been great working with your entire family. I hope you enjoyed your sneak peek. I will have the whole gallery for you here soon!

When Matthew & Alyssa first contacted me they let me know they had already done engagement photos with a photographer friend of mine. Due to her pregnancy timing she was unable to do their wedding. At the meeting we totally hit it off, and I was super excited to do the wedding this fall. As I said before they had already done some beautiful & romantic engagement photos, but as I always say none of my wedding clients get out of the pre-wedding portrait session, so we thought outside the box for our time together. The day of our meeting I had stumbled upon a quirky store down the street from my studio. The Portland Fixture Store really has a little bit of everything, shelving, signage, mannequins of all shapes & sizes, and so much more. I half jokingly brought it up to Mathew & Alyssa as an option and they totally jumped on it. I LOVE an adventurous couple! We had so much fun checking out the store and taking fun photos. We also ventured outside in the neighborhood and even down the street to Lippman’s Party Store. Such a fun day!
Here are a few of my favorites so far:
Mathew & Alyssa thanks again for meeting up with me for photos, and being up for anything. I am really looking forward to your wedding this fall! I know it will be an amazing day! 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!

I love, love, love it when my former wedding clients come back to me with good news! So when Julie sent me a little facebook message saying she & Kris were expecting this fall I was thrilled. You remember Julie & Kris’s stunning wedding just over 2 years ago right? I also posted about their album here. We also had fun the summer prior at the state fair. I just love working with these two, and the latest maternity session was no different. Julie is absolutely stunning as a pregnant lady. It was my pleasure to capture these two again. I can not wait to meet their little lady!
Julie & Kris thanks again for meeting up and being so good in-front of the camera again. I hope you enjoyed these. Almost done with the whole set. I can not wait to meet your little lady!

There is no doubt about it, I adore Rachelle & Courtney.
You might remember two from their super fun engagement session last year. Since then I have had a ton of fun getting to know these two. They are truly two beautiful ladies inside & out. They brought fun, joy, entertainment, and love to every inch of their wedding planning. When the big day finally came around a few weeks ago. and it was nothing short of magical. Being that these two met in the acapella music scene it was only fitting the day was extremely musical as well. I kind of felt like I scored a ticket to a really amazing show during the reception. So many talented people in one room, celebrating the best thing of all, love.
There was so much joy that day, from Courtney’s face when she saw Rachelle for the first time, to Rachelle’s sparkling smile matching the end of the night fireworks. I had so much fun at this one, I think I smiled the entire way home
Here are a few of my many favorites from the day…
