And, yes, she actually does look this stunning in real life. Stay tuned for more!

In 15 days she’ll walk across the stage, accept her diploma and have a promising future ahead of her. Pretty great place to be when you’re in your early 20s! We got to spend a gorgeous spring evening at her family’s home commemorating this upcoming milestone with a few photos. You’ll see below that although Pumpkin is a stunning horse, Jannell’s incredible smile and beautiful eyes have nothing on him.

Can’t you just see the opportunity in her eyes! =)

Jannell’s family agreed the photo on the right tells “the whole story”–we concurred!

This guy!

And who loves this guy more than anyone else in the world? Pretty sure it’d be these two…

We got to spend a very foggy Saturday morning with this great family a few weeks back. I think all of us adults were slightly bummed the sun that had been expected was a bit delayed, but it certainly did not slow things down one bit. From the moment we were introduced, we were zipping around Mt. Tabor Park, checking out the play structure, exploring the flora and fauna, and RUNNING!

We got connected to the L Family through mutual friends, the Doughertys. The two families have gotten to know each other because of their mutual interest in cystic fibrosis (CF). If you would like to learn more about CF or donate to the critical research that is taking place, show some love and go to www.cff.org.

Thanks for a fun Saturday morning, L Family! It was a pleasure to meet you and hang out!

I listen to NPR often and it’s just not an angle they are covering, but maybe they should consider starting to offer a more balanced perspective of love and war. Right? Taylor and Beth met just prior to shipping out to Iraq–both are trained medical professionals working at a military base hospital in Baghdad. They hung out a couple of times stateside, but the majority of their dating life has happened within the confines of the base they know as home for now. After way too many months on duty, they got to spend a solid month of R & R outside the Desert, bouncing from West to East Coast with a few stops in between. It was a privilege to record a little bit of their time here!

This silhouette shot was worth posting again even if you already saw it once on the sneak peek!

I just love Beth’s genuine laughter in the background in these two… I can’t recall what she’s laughing at, but she has such a beautiful smile when she’s doing it!

Seriously people, this was not staged. She really did bury her hands in her face while Taylor proudly displayed his awesome t-shirt.

Glad you guys made a Newberg stop! Fun hanging out and doing this mini-session with you!

Weighing in at about eight months, I give you, Miss Matea…

We LOVE a good series!

 

At about thigh high, the curious, talkative, sweet-toothed girl with the cute curls…Miss Ella

 

And the very well-matched parental figures of these two good looking kiddos…Rusty and Stephanie

 

We had a really fun time hanging out with you four–both times! So glad it worked out like it did and the Oregon weather was kind to us. You guys are doing a great job with those precious girls!

 

And a bonus feature today: A little of how we roll these days…

Taylor’s mom set up this photo session in advance of their arrival and we had just enough of a break in rain to get outside and spend a little camera time with them. Thanks for playing, guys! Enjoy the remainder of your R & R! More to come…

My sentimental side coming out, I suppose… As much as I value living in the present, I sure appreciate a “remember when” story. We became friends with the parents of this four person crew years ago during our Clif Bar phase of life. Two years ago they added Parker to the family and less than five weeks ago Miss Piper joined them. It was completely our pleasure to get to meet this new girl and welcome her into the world in Photo Macy style–with cameras up in her business. =) Jordan and Erica, another job well done! Miss Piper, you are going to have a great adventure of a life and so much love in this family!

 

Thanks for having us out! It was great to see you guys again and your growing family. You’re doing an awesome job! Keep up the good work!
