Storm Family

I have yet to come upon a bad picture of this family...they all turned out so great. I wanted to post a few more, before I post some of the other family at this session. We got some really fun pictures and as I said before, the weather could not have been more perfect for that hour. The lighting was just perfect for a fall setting....

Holiday Mini Session

Just a few shots from Saturdays Mini Sessions...I am still editing away on the rest of the families so don't despair if you don't see a shot of your family, I am just working my way through the day. :) We met at Peavy Arboretum, which was absolutely gorgeous and survived wind, rain and cold!

The "R" Family ~Family Photographer~

I had the honor today to photograph a new family. Josh and Renee got home a few weeks ago with their boys, who are just adorable and so sweet too! I know they were freezing cold, but they did such a great job smiling for me! I really enjoyed meeting them. I am starting at the end of the session, but I just loved the look on their little guys face in this shot! Enjoy these for now...I am finishing up my previous session before I get back to this one, but there will be more later! :)

Peek-a-boo

I had the opportunity to photography this almost 2 year old, little girl this morning, she was very sweet. I can't wait to finish editing the pictures, but here are just a few that caught my eye on the first round of viewing. Her Grandpa was on hand to help us get some smiles, and he found some gigantic leaves nearby for Audrey to play with.

~Yuan Family~

I wanted to post a couple more images from our session last Saturday.

I love this next one...gorgeous family, they could all be models!

Family Session ~Oregon Family Photographer~ Eugene, OR

I had a wonderful opportunity to photograph a great family last Saturday. The kids had all flown in from out of state for dad's retirement party so we stole a few minutes beforehand to get some fun family portraits. They were a fun group, willing to try out some different poses. This one is my favorite!

...more to come!

Christmas Card Designs

Smiles!

I finally got some smiles captured today! This little girl has been so stubborn (in a sweet sort of way!) for the past 6 months....these are the first really big smiles we have coaxed from her. Enjoy!

It cracks me up at how serious she is in the picture above...she was all smiles until I snapped that shot!

I was playing around with editing the image below and my creativity got carried away. I have not made any digital cards in months and just decided I had to do one!

10 Months~Miss M~

I recently have been inspired by another photographer to work on my monochrome images. I keep seeing her sepia toned pictures and I am so impressed with them! Anyway, apparently I found something I like, as I keep wanting to edit all my pictures in monochrome. Fortunately, my sweet monthly session was a great one to work on. She is just adorable and has the best eyes! I'll have to post some color images later, her outfit is so cute in full color!

More Leanna

Just a quick explanation on this next one...it started out as a mistake...I was resizing one of them and somehow it ended up on top of the other and after looking at it a little bit I kinda liked it. It is a fun artsy kind of look, and I just wanted to throw it in.

Fairy Girl

I just saw a tutorial on how to add some fantasy to your photos and immediately thought of this sweet girl I took pictures of last month and will get to see again tomorrow. So I wanted to try out the idea. I think it turned out pretty sweet! :)
