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’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

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!

We are family, I’ve got all my sisters… – Cape Meares Oregon Family Photography

I’ve known the M family for over a year now. This is their second session. We decided that we’d head to the beach! And boy, Oregon weather in September is very unpredictable. It was sprinkling sideways the entire session. But they were such awesome sports! The girls and mama were quick to have fun and kick off their shoes ready to dig their toes in the sand. Daddy-O on the other hand was just a touch reserved and kept his business shoes on. He is from New York City after all.

We started off with the sisters. I just fell in love with them because hello, I’m one of three sisters myself. And they all have such pretty names! Lily, Rose & Grace!

We made the most of our session despite the yucky weather. I just feel so much love with this family.

The girls were even courageous enough to do some jumping on the beach! Woohoo!

Seriously, so awesome.

Thank you so much M family for trusting me twice for your family memories. Here’s a quick little contest for you! Have 25 of your closest family and friends comment on this blog post and I would gladly gift you a wall print from our session for your home! Get to it!

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!
