I met Helene for the first time when she was around 38 weeks pregnant. In a coffee shop in downtown Portland, towards the end of the first time I met Helene, I remember asking her: “Do you believe in your heart you are going to go home with a baby?” To which she responded: “No.” […]

…: Allyson, 1 month :… Portland Oregon baby photographer
Sometimes….sometimes you just don’t get around to doing “newborn” photos during that first week. I have always been a firm believer in the idea that you can take beautiful photos of a kid at any age, and lately I’ve been having particularly good luck with mixed lifestyle/newborn sessions and older babies. Some cuddling, some posing…I […]

…: Sydney :… Portland, OR baby photographer
Every once in a while I cross paths with people during random photography-related happenings and they make an impression. This time, it happened twice. I met Julie (Sydney’s mom), Jami and Jenna (aunties) the first time at a wedding I shot earlier in the summer…They are the kind of people that when parting ways, I […]
…: Ethan, 6 months :… Portland OR baby photographer
When I look at all these 6 month sessions they look so…easy, ha! But don’t be fooled! Ethan is so SO cute. He was totally content for our session but his mom had to *laugh* to get him to smile…Fake laughing turns out can make a person a wee bit lightheaded, but give up, we […]
…: Welcome, sweet Violet :… Vancouver WA, birth photographer

Basically acquaintances, I really got to “know” Jen and Rocky while sitting in the pre-op triage room the morning they chose to let me photograph the birth of their second and last little one, Violet. I feel blessed to […]
…: Audrey + Solomon…and baby surprise :… Portland OR maternity photographers
So where to begin with this one… First off, a client very rarely makes me laugh out loud in an inquiry email, but the beautiful Audrey sure did. Pregnancy is such a strange thing. It’s really hard for a lot of women (myself very , VERY much included) to feel like themselves while simultaneously sporting […]
….: Puppies and Babies :) :…
When Jessica first called me, we were chatting, and sometime in our conversation I hear something along the lines of “Well, we have these puppies…” and then shortly after, she’s telling me about their gorgeous property and says words like “babies” and “sunset light”. I think she probably sensed my enthusiasm over the […]
…: Meet Presley :… Portland Oregon Birth photographers
So, a bit of why there’s not a lot of “leading up to” photos in this little ol’ birth blog. Here is a brief synopsis for my readers. Mama and I are texting the night before, after she’s just arrived at the hospital. Conversation goes something like this, at about 10PM before B-day: K: […]
