Teacher S and her family { family portraits }

I had a nice session with S and her sweet family. One of her daughters is about to graduate from collage and one is just about to start college. What a great milestone in their lives to capture!

S has been a teacher at Congregational Preschool in Eugene for quite a few years. She was one of Alesh & Lea's teachers last year. They love her dearly and we will miss her very much. She is a wonderful wonderful teacher and I am so grateful that my children had a chance to have her! Thank you S!

E + twins { sibling photography }

I met E and her twin siblings S & J at their house. We headed to their backyard that has a wonderful old apple tree. It was just the perfect tree to climb and swing from. And let me tell you, these children are such PROs at climbing and doing all sorts of tricks on the little swing on this tree! See the 3rd photo? That's J hanging from the tree with his twin sister who just happened to walk by. I miss these guys already. We had a great time together!

E & C - { family photo session at the Morris Ranch }

I had a really pleasant session with 5-year old E, her almost 2-year old brother C and of course their cool parents! It was a sunny and really bright morning. The children enjoyed running around, smelling the flowers and even got to meet the neighborhood cat (sorry, cat not pictured here)!

J, V & E - { happy sibling portrais }

I am always excited to have a session with J&V and E. They keep me on my toes and we laugh like crazy the whole time! They are such fun to hang out with. And this session was no exception...




Little T turned 1!

I've had the honor to watch this darling boy grow since he was still under his mommy's heart. You can see a few images from his newborn and 6-month session here.

He's quite a charmer! How coudln't he be with those gorgeous big blue eyes!?

Two big sisters and a small one...

I love this first photo I'm posting here. It wasn't planned. It just happened and I got lucky! It pretty much sums up these three adorable sisters. The big sisters adore their little baby sister and she totally loves them!

2-year old M

People often ask me where do I do my sessions. I do have a few favorite spots in town but I always love the challenge of going to a new place, somewhere I haven't been before. This beautiful family took me to their grand parents' farm out in the country in Veneta. We had a great time and M loved to explore the grounds. His favorite spot was the shop and his favorite object of the day was a big huge hammer. He had so much fun with it!

Czech family

Lovely family. Good friends. Really nice people. Gorgeous blue eyes! Too bad they have returned back to the "old country." We will miss you guys!

3 boys



Mr. E is 3!

E turned 3 in June. This session was to celebrate and document this new chapter and milestone in this gorgeous blue-eyed boy! We had lots of fun exploring bugs and spider webs, throwing rocks and sticks in the water. We even saw a cool plane!

Wedding photography

Disclaimer: I am not a wedding photographer. I work predominantly with babies, children and families but I do take on an occasional wedding assignment :-)

But I have to admit that I really enjoyed working with Teresa and Lee on their special wedding day. They are such a sweet couple. They had a lovely wedding at the Thyme Garden located just a few miles out of Corvallis.
