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!

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…

Next week we’ll venture outside for Part II–fingers crossed for sun!

We have been out there the last two Octobers and it’s just great. Being only 15-20 minute drive from NW Portland, you wouldn’t believe how quickly you’re in rural Oregon. It’s beautiful! With every bend in the road there are farms, pumpkin patches, beaches, u-pick areas, and lots of flat road for biking. We were excited when the Kohl Family wanted to head that way for their session and we made sure to arrive early so we could enjoy Kruger’s Farm Market before we started. Couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful afternoon or great location!

When you get a chance, check out this family’s work and vision for food and nutrition justice in the Portland area. They are working hard in a much needed area of change.

Getting to see kids changing after a few months or a year is so fun! These kids are just getting cuter each time we see them. This photo session marked the one year birthday of the littlest Erickson. And if those big brown eyes aren’t enough to make you want to pick him up and kiss his sweet little face! It was great to see you guys again!

They are a fun bunch and she is lucky to have each of them. She is going to definitely have to learn to keep up or these boys will be leaving her in the dust! They are each so different and it was such fun to hang out for a Saturday morning. The incentive for these kids was a delicious doughnut from the famous Portland shop, Voodoo Doughnuts. Let me tell you, parents, we are all about incentives when it comes to photo sessions with kids! The kids held to their end of the bargain and I’m curious to know what doughnuts they chose as their reward… Thanks Perez Fam for a fun time and thanks also to Pinky and Laura for use of their home and neighborhood!

What a fun time! One year is quite a mile mark and such a fun time to document. The smiles and cute looks from little Max are precious…and check out that hat! Thanks for a great start to the day, guys!

Again, we just love, love, love photography as a gift for family members celebrating anniversaries or birthdays or other important events. The four siblings pulled together and organized this birthday present for their mother–photos of the whole group and, most importantly, the grandkids!

Does anyone in the Portland area remember that awful Sunday morning in July when we looked out our windows and couldn’t believe how hard it was raining? Yep, that was our lucky day! These guys didn’t blink at it, but powered through and were flexible as we all did our best to stay dry and out of the torrential downpour. They even managed some awfully great smiles! As always, the kids stole the show. Thanks again to all the cousins who helped bring out the best smiles. You guys were so great! Let’s do it again some time…maybe when it’s sunny? =)

Hard to believe this guy is one year old now. And what a cutie! Those big brown eyes are too much! He’s an active one, keeping his parents entertained and on their toes. Thanks for spending an early summer evening hanging out. It was great to see you again!
