Oh how I love to watch them grow

Anyone out there remember this super cute little baby, or this adorable little man? Well baby or rather Toddler “J” is a big boy now! Can you believe he just turned one?! This last weekend I went down to Corvallis and hung out with the whole family at the coolest park. Julie did such a great job choosing the spot. We had so much fun running around.I can not believe this little guy is already 1 years old!

Well anyway here are a few of my favorites so far:

He was all about exploring, and man did he ever love the caution tape. The one on the right might be my favorite too, I just can not decide. He is all boy, all amazing boy. 🙂

Julie thanks again for letting me capture your little one as he grows. He is absolutely amazing, I am so looking forward to seeing him again as he gets bigger. I will have the whole gallery for you soon, much more to show!

Happy Monday, with a side of cute red head

Whew what a weekend!

On Friday I madly packed up my suitcase and headed up to Seattle for an over the top amazing photographers conference. With all the sickness in our house as of late I was not sure if I could swing it, but I am SO very glad I went. It was a weekend, of learning, spending time with friends and meeting new ones. It is always so lovely to be surrounded by other people who share your passion. I came home physically tired from some long days, but my creative batteries are charged! I got to shoot and spend time with several of the countries top wedding & portrait photographers, it was so humbling but wonderful. I am always so impressed with people that are at the top of their game, and willing to give up their valuable time to teach others. Photography can be such an amazing community of creative people. I will have some fun photos from the shoot outings I am sure, but none ready for sharing yet. For right now I have a to do list a mile long, an email in box full to the brim and lots and lots of laundry!

So for now I will just share some images I took of my sweet girl before I left. While it was an amazing weekend I could not wait to get home to her. I am sure any parents reading this know the feeling, after being gone there is just nothing better than that first hug and smooch.

more of my little model

Have I mentioned before that we just love the online boutique Baby Go Retro? Oh that is right, I have. Well we had two more outfits to knock out and perfectly enough Oregon got a little heat wave over the weekend. Hello gorgeous weather! We took full advantage of the beautiful sunshine and flowers and had lots of fun trying on these spring and summer styles.

Here are some of my favorites I just had to share!

My little redhead just loved this outfit. So soft and comfy. She actually just noticed me working on these pics and demanded to change into it again!

I love this summer set. Red had a great time twirling around the yard in it. I believe she called the pants her “twirly dancing pants”. I have a feeling this one will see lots of use in the summer!

Shelia thanks again for showing us some baby go retro love! I am already looking forward to your fall line!

I got eye contact for my birthday…

What else can a photographer mom really ask for? 🙂

my sweet girl.

her little crooked smile kills me.

and one side view because I love her little intense look here.

I hope you all are having a fantastic day! I am ok with getting older when I have a cute little peanut like this I guess. And remember my birthday month special is still going on. Anyone who knows me knows I am a big fan of any kind of good deal. It is only fitting for my birthday that I give you all the deal!

Have a wonderful day,
