July 23, 2010

the sweet sunshine seems to be here to stay and I couldn’t be happier to shoot some beautiful people. meet jared and mini jared. there is something about the bond between a dad and son and it was so fun to capture that. jared is a very talented graphic designer and shooting artistic people makes photos all the more fun. here are a few to share from our shoot.

just a note that my summer is pretty booked so be sure to get ahold of me soon to book your session while we are having this gorgeous weather. i have so much to blog and will never get to it, but i am going to sure try. does someone wanna do it for me? tis’ wedding crazy season (0;

I shoot a lot of photographers and their families and it is always more nerve wracking then a regular shoot. It is also is super flattering to be asked by them….Shannon however makes me the most nervous. I adore her and of course her work. Lucky for me she is also one of my best friends so that helps calm the nerves a bit. For Fathers Day she had me do this shoot. It doesn’t hurt at all that Chris is super handsome and she has the cutest kids. I think they all make me look good….way better than I actually am (0;

and yep that is sunshine we have been having finally, which means you better get on my schedule for pictures because my summer is getting booked fast!!!

I know I have fallen off the face of the earth the last few months. My traveling schedule has been getting a little crazy in between regular shoots here in Portland. I have finally updated my calendar through the fall so be sure to check it out and get on it. It is filling up very quickly.

and now to share real quick a few of these three cuties. They were the sweetest things and I am so thankful to be able to do this for their amazing momma.
