cute boys with killer lashes

When the mama of these two adorable boys contacted me to set up a session she told me her little ones were sweet & full of character. She did not warn me of the over whelming cuteness. Little brother and big brother were dolls to work with, and point my camera at. The entire family was fun to work with.

Here are a few of my favorites so far…

Jerilyn & Andy thanks again for coming out to the studio and sharing  your sweet boys with me. They are darling!

I hope you have enjoyed your sneak peek. I will have the whole set for you very soon. I would also love to offer a comment challenge for you. If you can get 30 comments on this blog post I will kick in a darling set of little brag books on the house.

is there anything better than wedding dress shopping?

It was my pleasure this weekend to hang out with the lovely ladies of AniA Collection in downtown Portland. The shop is always amazing, but the glamor was extra special this weekend with the Lazaro Trunk show in town. I was asked to come in and capture some of the show, and assist soon to be brides with photos of them in their wedding dress options. It really was such a fun time. I mean really, what is more fun thank trying on glamorous wedding dresses?! The show was a busy one, and the AniA staff was extra busy, but we all had a great time, and met some beautiful brides.

Here are a couple snaps from the show.

Flowers provided by the lovely & talented Stephanie Major with Petalos.

Were you there? Did I take your photo? If so you can go here to find your images, and get your free download!

*you will need to create a brief log-in (I promise I will not spam you!) and find the date you were in the shop.

Once you find your gallery just click the green arrow below the image for your free download.

And of course if you lovely ladies still need a wedding photographer I would be happy to chat with you. 🙂

Thanks again AniA staff & clients for letting me capture the show this weekend. It was great fun, and lovely to meet you all.

Another adorable & sweet Scarlett

Yet again a little girl named Scarlett has stolen my heart. She did the same thing last year in her darling NE Portland home. Well this year the family got to show me their beautiful new home just a big out from the city. You can tell darling Scarlett loves being out in the country with more room to roam. She gladly showed me her new space, her “kitchen” and some beautiful smiles.

Here are a few of my many favorites from our day…

 

Shannon & Wes thanks again for having me out to the new place. It is gorgeous! I can not wait to see what you do with it. I hope you liked your sneak peek. I will have the whole set done very soon. And of course you know how we roll around here right? If you can get 30 people to comment on this blog post I will throw in a set of darling little brag books for you. So leave some love people!

She said yes!

Just over a week ago I got an email from a very excited guy named Dustin. He was planning a very special moment, that he wanted photographed.  He was getting together a fun and creative way to propose to his longtime girlfriend. He had it all planned out, and had it all set up with friends & family waiting in the wings to help pull it off. I have to admit I was more than excited to capture it for him. It is not every day that you get to witness and capture a proposal!

So the day came along, and let me tell you the weather was not what you would call ideal. It was wet, rainy, and super windy. All that aside it was a magical moment. Seeing Alyson’s face when she figured out what was going on was priceless! I could go on and on about how fun this was, but lets get on to the photos shall we?!

Dustin & Alyson I am so happy for you two! I hope you had a magical day, and wish you nothing but the best in your lives together. It was my pleasure to capture your special moment, and I look forward to hearing more about the wedding. I know a pretty good wedding photographer when the time comes ;). I hope you enjoyed reliving the special moment! I will have the whole set done for you shortly.
