Sweet Little Miss

This sweet little girl is so much fun! I had such a good time getting down on her level. Its always fun to capture a few shots while a little one is just being themselves.

The sun was so gorgeous! And gave this little sweetheart gorgeous color!

She loves beads and I handed her my necklace to play with for awhile.

Taking a Chance....

Wow....could I get any cornier? Oh wait, you don't know that! Well lets just say that my title to this post is a play on this families name. I met with Dani and her family last week to take some portraits of them. I think they all turned out pretty sweet. It was hard to choose my favorites and the only thing that helped me was the fact that the overcast sky was so bright that day that I had to pull out the pictures with squint-y eyes. Here are a few...

My beautiful cousin and her cute son...

I got to take pictures of my baby cousin last week. I can't believe that her son is 12! Isn't he just adorable?

It was good to see her and so fun to take some portraits of the two of them.

Ethan has totally grown up and I can't believe he is 12! Seriously Rachel, when did that happen?

Anyway, they were both perfect models for me and gave me some gorgeous shots! I love all of them so far and can't wait to keep editing some more!

Family Session ~Oregon Family Photographer~

I had lots of fun with Erika and her kidlets last Friday...it's always fun when I get to bring my own kids along and since they are friends they got to come along. They loved to run around and explore the field while we were taking pictures.
Erika is such a sweet mom, person and friend. She is the type of person who makes you think "her life is perfect!" but I think what makes her so sweet is that she would be the first one to tell you she isn't! It isn't any wonder that her kids are just as sweet as she is. This photo session was a father's day surprise for her husband (who was out of the country on a mission trip to Uganda). I just love this family and I really enjoyed shooting them! (I just love saying that!)

Spent some time with this cutie and his aunts last week. We got some awesome pictures with a great urban feel that I just love! I am having a LOT of fun editing these!

Happy Birthday Little One

I love the chance to see some of my littlest clients as they grow up. I was excited when I got an e-mail from this cutie-pies mom. (Another post here.) We set up a session for Saturday and got some amazing shots.

Sweet Monotones

Storm Family

I have yet to come upon a bad picture of this family...they all turned out so great. I wanted to post a few more, before I post some of the other family at this session. We got some really fun pictures and as I said before, the weather could not have been more perfect for that hour. The lighting was just perfect for a fall setting....

Holiday Mini Session

Just a few shots from Saturdays Mini Sessions...I am still editing away on the rest of the families so don't despair if you don't see a shot of your family, I am just working my way through the day. :) We met at Peavy Arboretum, which was absolutely gorgeous and survived wind, rain and cold!
