CUTE. CUTE. CUTE! And what a HAM! Alex made my job a piece of cake. He just looked at me and gave me all the smiles and cuteness I could want. He either loves me or getting his photo taken? hmm. Maybe both 
I had such a good time photographing Alex and loved how well he did. It was also wonderful to see his parents, Ben & Allaire again after photographing their wedding not too long ago! Its always great to see my bliss couples grow into a family of 3 (or MORE!). Thanks for coming to see me again. You guys made a Perfect little man! Enjoy your sneak peek…

As I always say the final piece of my baby planners is always both a happy moment and a bittersweet moment. Its exciting that they reach a year and I can complete their album but at the same time….Im sad…A YEAR! Already? ha ha ha. And now being a mom I see just how fast it really goes. Dont worry I really am excited to work on my one year albums. They are my happy place. The Sanow Twins had their one year session and I was so excited for it. Their parents found the PERFECT location. We had chatted about wanting a field of wildflowers for the girls. Done. Perfect time of year. Perfect little location. Ill admit I was thrilled that they did the dirty work for me by researching the location first. Made it that much better. We also had a couple props to finish tying the year together. Samantha brought an old antique rocking horse (beautiful!) and we had a bouquet of balloons (used balloons in the maternity session!). Its fun to have a bit of a theme or “look” throughout the sessions so the book is even more complete.
So Ill start by teasing….You know its going to be a GREAT session when this is how you start out…
And it wouldnt be complete without a little nose picking right?
Okay I am TOTALLY teasing the girls were actually fabulous for their session. The top photo of Ellerie crying was too cute to pass up the shot. And really only lasted a minute. And nose picking Esme? Entirely my fault and I will happily take the blame…cause its HILARIOUS. I said “Esme…Where’s your nose?” Well she showed me didnt she! ha!
I really have too many great shots…including the silly ones above that I HAD to post. Sometimes things just click. Excuse the pun. But the light was beautiful…the girls were beautiful…the location was beautiful. Makes my job super easy. Just watch…and shoot. Congrats to the girls for turning one! And congrats to Samantha and Jon for surviving the first year! You both are amazing parents and the girls are so lucky to have you! Looking forward to working on the book! Hugs and here are a few of my favorites!

Some of you may have seen that my good friend and fellow photographer, Dave Hutt and I are having little photo projects to keep us constantly looking for photo opportunities. Its sometimes hard to find time to shoot for yourself and its nice to always have a “project” in the back of my head so that I keep searching for the photo. The project we are working on now is “Stripes”. Its taken us both awhile to get a shot not only for the maybe a little more complicated title (harder to figure out what to photograph) but also we have both been busy and haven’t had a lot of time to just shoot. I cheated a little….well only a little. I didn’t take a day to seek out a photo for this originally. Dan and I were looking for a location to photograph Lily for her one year session that will be happening the beginning of July. We headed out to Sauvie Island to find a cool farm to go with the Look I am hoping to achieve (you will have to stay tuned to see those photos!). While farm shopping I came across two “Stripe” photos. I think the second will be my official challenge entry. So now…Dave….Let’s see what you got? You can view Dave’s blog at www.davehuttblog.com! Hopefully he will post his photo(s) soon!

Nothing makes me happier than getting THESE boxes delivered all the way from New York…
Getting closer…
Two pieces of my heart delivered and are ready for my clients. That is IF I can give them up!
My Baby Albums are soooo special to me and I could not be more excited for these beauties to decorate their owners’ homes. Thank you to BOTH families for letting me capture a piece of your lives and document it into a book!

The Brumfield family has grown to a family of 5! So exciting…and ADORABLE kids! This session was all about Hannah who has turned one! But of course we snagged a few of the family as well…And one adorable shot of the cousins. Little Sawyer joined us for a couple shots at the very end. I have been working with the Brumfields since they were married not too many years ago and I have so enjoyed being a part of their lives as the kids have joined in. I love watching Molly and Yancey as they talk to their kids. You can tell just how amazing these two parents are. There is so much patience and love that it just makes me happy to see! Thanks to the Brumfield’s for making the drive down to Portland to visit! I had a blast at the session and hope you guys enjoy your sneak peek! Hugs to all of you…See you again soon!
