Sam Newborn Photos – Portland
I had the wonderful experience of spending my birthday this year photographing newborn baby Sam and his family.
Sam’s mom is one of the fabulous ladies from Events by Gather, and I’ve had the great pleasure of photographing some of her events, as well as family portraits with her older daughter Julia last year.
Our newborn photo session was the first time I met baby Sam, and it was such a great surprise to meet him and get to know his sweet personality (and to get to photograph his adorable red hair!).
Below are a few of my favorite pictures from the day.
Matt and Steph – Hood River Bed and Breakfast Wedding – Hood River Oregon
I was really lucky to get to be at Matt and Steph’s wedding this fourth of july weekend. The weather was perfect, we had a clear view of Mt. Hood during the ceremony, and the parasols at the venue were perfect to keep guests cool during the ceremony. Also, one of my favorite food carts catered the event, 808 grind, with delicious Hawaiian food. As the day turned into dusk, the light at Mt. Hood Bed and Breakfast was just gorgeous. I was also lucky to witness my first ever wedding talent show, which turned out to be impressive, and funny, and magical, and really touching, it was a great way for their friends and family to showcase their skills and be a part of this special day.

Davis’ First Birthday Cake Smash – Baby Photos Portland
I had a wonderful time photographing Davis and his family during his first birthday cake smash. Baby cake smashes are always fun because you never know how the little ones are going to react to their first touch and taste of cake. Davis was a little apprehensive at first, but really enjoyed being able to play with his toy cars in the messy cake.
We made sure to get a few portraits of him nice and clean before the smash as well, but once he was in that cake and getting messy he was happy to share with everyone!
Coal and Layla – Pet Photography Portland
I’d forgotten to post last summer about my wonderful afternoon with Coal and Layla. This one was a surprise for one of their owners so I had been waiting to post, and then it just slipped through the cracks.
What sweet dogs!
