I had the extreme honor of photographing the Hagerty family once the two little princesses made their arrival. Much tears were shed behind the camera for me. I just adore this family.

Usually blue means sadness but there was none of that when I photographed the P family a few weeks ago. We met at a fun little park and just had a blast. Big brother and twin little sister and little brother were amazing and full of smiles!

I was honored to photograph little Layla and her mommy, Sarah a few weeks ago. Layla’s daddy has yet to hold her in his arms. Eric serves with the United States Navy and is out to sea. I’m not going to lie. It was difficult not to tear up during this shoot. Eric, this session is especially for you. Thank you for your sacrifice!

Miss Layla was full of adorable expressions.

Mommy and Auntie Christina were armed with the cutest outfits in the world.

And we just had to use a quilt that Layla’s great great grandmother made. Precious in blue!

I dare you not to smile at this little swimsuit and sandals. She’s ready for summer!

Here’s Layla and her beautiful mommy. Sarah, you are just gorgeous. I also thank you for your sacrifice. You are strong beyond words. Us military mommas have to stick together.

So family and friends. Here’s a challenge for you! If Layla and Sarah receive 25 comments on their post, I will gift them with an adorable custom gift! P.S. If you don’t see your comment right away, don’t fret. I need to moderate them before they show up!

It’s been a while – Salem Oregon Child and Family Photography

I’ve known this family for a while now. Met them before the man of the house was due to deploy. Campbell was just a few weeks old. While the daddy, Kyle was gone, we had a few sessions with just the mommy, Anna and baby Campbell. I sent as a surprise a little book filled with photos from each of those sessions. My heart was so full when I learned that Kyle returned home and they were a complete family once again. What better way to celebrate the reunion than with a fun photo session by a beautiful river in Salem.

Things I loved from the session? Little Campbell’s strong arm while walking. Her big smiles. Pointing to every dog and bike that crossed our path. Having her mommy and daddy kiss over and over again just for the photos.

Enjoy your special blog post Akers family!

And here is your special super dee duper blog challenge! Have 25 family and friends to comment on this post and I will gift you a cute little 3×3 accordian brag book with photos from the session! Good luck! <3

Beautiful kids, beautiful beach, silly faces & silly bands. – Oahu Hawaii Child Photography

I’ve known the mommy of these kiddos since the early 90′s back when we both still lived in Guam. We found each other again through the wonder that is FaceBook. She heard that I was heading to the Oahu to photograph a wedding and she jumped at the chance to do a photo session! Thank you for trusting me Armi! I adore you!

We met at one of several beautiful lagoons at Ko’Olina and here is what we got as the sun set in the distance.

This was the one of the first shots I took of the kids. I think I yelled at Armi and said “We’re done! They are AMAZING!”

Armi has some gorgeous kiddos. Very polite, sweet and cooperative!

Here’s her oldest boy. Mr. Handsome.

And the oldest girl. Miss Stunning.

Number three. The Duke of Charm.

The youngest boy. Sir Adorable.

And the baby girl, who wasn’t feeling too well that day but did amazing. Baby Z so sweet.

Here’s one of just the boys.

And one of the girls.

And one of awesome Armi helping me out. Psst, she might kill me for posting this one!

Armi, I know you still love me right?

One last one. I needed to get their sillies out and boy did I!

So fun!!

Thank you Armi and kiddos for a wonderful sunset session! I had a blast and here is my challenge to you, your family and friends! Get 25 people to comment on this blog post and I’ll send you a free custom storyboard print of the kiddos straight to your island! I miss you all. Mahalo and Aloha!

One of the many things I do in my business is give back. Just a few months ago. United Health Care asked me to donate a session for their March of Dimes auction. I wholeheartedly agreed! I was excited enough that I donated two sessions! One of the winners was the B family. They have a little girl named Claire and oh my goodness is she precious!

She loved to laugh and point at the camera. Didn’t care about toys but would rather touch my camera lens. She’s a techie in the making I’m sure!

This family is full of love and smiles and giggles.

The day after our session was to be Claire’s FIRST birthday so of course I had to run around the house and take photos of details for the party.

And little miss cutie pie Claire had two cakes. One for her birthday party and one for her to smash into and taste for the session! She loved the cake but wasn’t too fond of the fondant. Haha!

Seriously. Cute right?!?!?

The biggest giggles came from her when we went on a little walk in front of her home.

Thank you so much B family and thank you so much Claire. I hope your first birthday was fun! Do me a favor okay? Try to get 25 people to comment on this blog post so that mommy and daddy could get a little brag book full of your smiling face m’kay!? I know you can do it!

This is Michael. – Beaverton Oregon Baby Photography

maricar lianne — Wed, 29 Sep 2010 02:14:32 +0000

He’s the adorable baby of a good friend of mine.

He’s all boy because he just adores grass and anything nature.

And he loves to laugh at his mommy when she dances behind me.

He loves to stick out his tongue.

He loves to pick flowers. They’re probably for his mommy.

A total mommy’s boy.

And again with the expressions. Haha!!

I just adore this little guy! Thanks again Xenie and Michael! Next time we’ll get dad, Joe in there for sure. Here’s your fun little challenge! If you can get 25 people to comment on Michael’s post, I’ll throw in a little accordion brag book to show off to friend and family. So come on now, get to talking!

Full circle – Scappoose Oregon Baby and Family Photography

I photographed this sweet family back in February of 2009. But it was for a heartbreaking situation. They lost their little baby girl A at the hospital and I was there as a member of Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep to take photos of them saying good-bye. Little A was perfect in every way, just born still. I remember driving away from the hospital with tears running down my cheeks and prayers in my heart for them. I know first hand what it’s like to have to say farewell to a little being and I only wished them the best and hoped that someday another little one would come and cheer up their hearts once again. And they’ve come full circle. I had the honor of seeing them again a couple weeks ago to see their new little bundle of joy, little P. This little man is quite adorable and smooshy and so very loved. Here are some photos from our session.

Seriously. Such a beautiful family!

The little guy is the apple of daddy’s eye!

The mommy just beams when she holds her little one.

Little P is confused that not all of you are Duck fans.

And of course we had to add the puppies into the mix!

Seriously so adorable I can’t stand it!

Thank you R family for having me in your home to take photos of your lovely little family! I sure hope you’re ready for a little blog challenge! Just get 25 people to comment on your photo post here and I’ll give you with a cute little brag book with images from your session! Good luck and much love! xoxox

Adorablesome. – Beaverton Oregon Baby Photography

I know that’s not an actual word but I’m making it a new word and hope it catches on. I photographed this little boy today and he was just a ball of goodness and smiles! Here’s just one to show how adorablesome really looks like.
