….: charlotte :…. portland oregon newborn photographers

<3 I don’t think it’s any secret around here that I am a lover of the soft neutral colors when it comes to newborn photography… During sessions, I usually am trying to figure out how to get as many totally unique looking setups as I can for my client mamas + dads…  At the end […]

…: new life :… portland, oregon birth photographers

note: information on shooting births for photographers at the bottom of this post.   I can’t thank this family enough for letting me be a part of the birth of their new baby MaTeyo <3 I know women are strong, but watching this mama deliver 10lb 10oz MaTeyo underwater on 12-13-14 was one of the […]

This mama and her family are extra special to me…my longtime friend and fellow photographer over at Aga O’neil Photography –  and I was there for the birth of #3 (missed #4 since I was preparing to leave the country!) . . . I had posted on Facebook that they were stumped for names, and a huge, […]

…. Khloé is 6 months …. Portland, Oregon photographers

My alumni are about all I can […]

…Rylee… Portland, Oregon newborn photographers

I told myself I wasn’t going to take the time to blog until I’m all caught up editing, but I’ve had *so* many little boys lately that the temptation to show off some girly images was too great <3 So here she is, Miss Rylee, (my second cousin).  

…. kingston james ….. : portland oregon birth photography :

This birth was…. something else <3 My sister in law.  Someone so very near and dear to me and yet…. originally when I’d offered up my services, she passed. I get it. I so get it. Birth is an inner thing. It’s a piece of yourself that you aren’t even in touch with in the […]

….hello, baby… Portland oregon birth photography

:sigh:   You know, you can’t always control everything, right? I had about a 4 hour chunk of time that this birth was “uncovered”… meaning I had an obligation and my backup also had something until later in the afternoon… Surely, surely, not *then*.   Oh yes, then.  🙂   It’s always then. lesson learned.
