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.

I had a fun little session with Caitlin early in the morning. Had fun downtown and played with a few props. Basically had a ball! Here are a few from her session.

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’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!

I adore this family of four. – Aloha Oregon Family and Child Photography

A huge part of my photography business is giving back. One of the organizations I helped with this year is the March of Dimes. I love this organization more so because I have two babies that I delivered a tad bit premature. I donated a couple family sessions to their annual auction sponsored by United Health Care of Portland.

The lovely Stewart family graciously bid for my services and won! I am so pleased that they loved my work! And super duper props to them for giving to the March of Dimes. Such a wonderful organization! We decided to do their family session at a nature park near their home and boy was it a blast! Here are a few from our excursion in the woods.

Such handsome boys! They also protected me from snakes.

Lots of fruit snacks + funny dancing from mom & dad = a multitude of smiles!

I always make it a point during family sessions to show the love between the mommy & the daddy. Aren’t they sweet?

One last one that I just adore. Thank you so much Stewart family! You all are gorgeous and amazing!

Oh and before I leave, just a little challenge for the Stewart family, their friends & family and my loyal blog readers. If you can get 20 people to comment on this post, I’ll gift you an 11×14 print from your session! Woohoo!

These are the Gende kids.

They are adorable.

They are crazy.

They love each other.

B, the intellectual kooky one!

E, the cute and quiet one!

B, the sassy little sista!

Their momma and I struck up a deal and she’s sewing me good stuff for the biz while I photograph these kidlets as they grow. It’s a great deal! Dude, they are sweet!

She’s officially old… – Newberg Oregon Family and Maternity Photography

but still as hot as can be!

Just wanted to wish one of my BFF’s Emily of emily g photography a very very very happiest of birthdays today. In a few days she’ll be adding another sweet thing to her brood. A great week for her indeed. Another decade older & the arrival of Griffin soon!

Here’s some photos I’d like to share of my sweet friend, her family and her belly.

From our photo swap back in October last year…

I adore her family so.

And from her maternity session taken December of last year…

The lady is stunning inside and out. I’m honored to call her my friend.

Happy Birthday Em. You are loved.

Before Halloween, I talked to the girls extensively about what they’ll be dressed up as. Malia wanted to be Ariel, The Little Mermaid, use the same dress she used on her fifth birthday earlier in the summer and she wanted me to color her hair red with that red powdery spray you can get at Sally Beauty Supply. Jenna wanted to be Tinkerbell and use the same costume she wore on her birthday party when she turned two last year. But, I wanted something different. So I toted the girls over to Toys R Us and Target and found two identical costumes that just super adorable! Behold… my Supergirls!

When I hear that answer from a toddler, I could tell it’s going to be a fantastic session. This is little Keara. She’s turning 3 very very soon and loves to giggle. She has the cutest toothy smile and my goodness could a little redhead in pigtails be any cuter? I think not.

Most of our time together was spent looking for birdies in the sky and making silly faces.

I just adore the colors in this jacket of hers. It really brings out her bright blue eyes and red hair.

Isn’t her toothy grin just so cute!

She was having so much fun inspecting all the wonders of fall. So I just let her.

Thank you Keara for spending a few minutes with me. I enjoyed our walk around your neighborhood. Can you do me a favor and teach my girls that they should always say “Sure!” to me?

Pooltime fun with their daddy.

If you don’t already know, Jerry’s in the Air Force Reserves. So once a month during a weekend, we drive up to Tacoma, Washington. Sometimes we get lucky and stay at a hotel. Sometimes that hotel has an awesome pool & spa. Here are some pictures of my loves having fun. I just adore them!

Malia J. I need to remember to enroll her in swim classes again. On this day she learned how to float on her back.

Sweet Jenna Bean. She loves to swim and I’ll have enroll her in swim classes too. But first, she needs to get rid of those pesky diapers!

They love using the spa more than the pool for some reason. Haha.
