Joelle + Jake Thomas, Eugene, Oregon Wedding Photographer
What a beautiful day! The Thomas wedding had been circled on my calendar with hearts and butterflies and unicorns around it for all of 2014 (okay, not really - I can't draw unicorns.) I adore Jake and Joelle and have not only loved the photos I had taken of them, but LOVED spending time with them during the sessions themselves. Is it weird to say the three of us had chemistry? If it's weird, then pretend I didn't say it...If it's not weird, then, we totally had photographer
Newborn Dominic, Eugene, Oregon Family Photographer
Beautiful baby boy Romero came to my studio a couple of weeks ago and was sweet enough to smile at me during his session (yay! I never thought it really happened and that photographers were photoshopping in newborn smiles!) He was such a little gentleman the entire shoot. There were a couple times that he tried to "cry," but really, that just looked like a baby cryface with no sound coming out! His mom, Rachel said she keeps waiting to hear him cry, but so far, he's been quie
Bonin Family - Eugene, Oregon Family Photographer
The beautiful Bonin family met up with me during the week, right as the golden hour was striking perfectly at 5:30 pm. Prior to the shoot, I may or may not have casually mentioned to Jessica Bonin a few times that she needed to update her family pictures. Jessica is my awesome and amazing accountant...An important person in my I have a real life job, I am also a photographer in my after-hours...I use my house for a studio...I have a kidlet (can I write that off somehow?) life
Ziehr Family Shoot: Eugene, Oregon Family Photographer
What a busy week!! In the past seven days, I shot four family sessions, a newborn session and even a wedding on behalf of Roman Studios! It was, shall we say, a whirlwind? Yes, that among other adjectives...But, in case you were sitting on the edge of your seat wondering when my next blog post might be (as I'm sure you all were), that is the explanation. Okay, on to the beautiful family that is the subject of this post...The Ziehrs were kind enough to invite me out to their p
Sam and Lena: Eugene, Oregon Child Photographer
This past Sunday, I endeavored to do two photo shoots back to back. First up was a rendezvous with this family for a "free-range" (their mom's words) session with these two girls. Sunday marked the third time I have been able to capture Sam and Lena - both came to my Christmas minis in December and then again to the studio for the Easter bunny minis this past spring. However, this was the first time I was able to spend a bit more time with them and have adequate space to acco
Kristen & Casey's Family Portrait Session: Eugene, Oregon Family Photographer
I love doing family portrait sessions. When I met up with Kristen, Casey, Alex and MaKaela last week at one of my all time favorite locations, I was reminded that it has been months since I had a family in front of my lens! With engagements, studio shoots and weddings, I was so glad that I had an opportunity to revisit one of my favorite photo opportunities :) The main reason I love doing family sessions is this very first image below - this adorable, beautiful little moment
Stirling's Newborn Session; Eugene, Oregon Children Photography
What a beautiful brand new boy I got to meet earlier this month in my studio. Stirling's parents have waited for him for a long time...When the three of them arrived for the newborn session, I could tell that everyone was settling in well and quickly as a family of three. Prior to the shoot, I had said that a sleepy baby makes for adorable photos - and my oh my, did Stirling deliver. He slept so solidly throughout the entire shoot - the result was my quickest newborn session
