Eugene Springfield, Oregon Portrait Photographer: Christmas Mini Sessions 2014

Phew!  What a great last 2 weekends!  I had 22 mini sessions this year and unfortunately had to turn a few people away.  I just didn't think I could get everything edited in time for everyone to get their Christmas cards out.  But I'm so thankful for the success this year and couldn't have done it without all the amazing families that joined me out at Cheshire Knoll Christmas Tree Farm.  Michael and Bonnie are the owners and they are just the sweetest people!  They let me use their gorgeous property and let me store any items that I didn't want to haul back and forth since they are pretty far out :)  Please keep them in mind for your Christmas tree needs this year.

And Santa was a hit!  He is just as amazing as we all thought Santa would be ;)  Please let me know if you need his number up at the North Pole--he is available for some appearances before the big day.  I had him hang out in the trees for the beginning of the sessions so I could get the family pictures done just in case any of the kiddos were a little scared and upset with Santa being there.  A few cried and some were too shy to sit in his lap, but overall I think it went really well!  Even in the freezing cold temps the 2nd weekend!  The looks on some of the kids' faces just makes me smile with every part of my being.  Almost makes me a little teary to see the joy in their faces.  They loved having Santa read them a book and of course get cookies and candy canes (even some of the moms and dads too ;) ).

Enjoy and Happy Holidays :)

Eugene, Oregon baby photographer: Hattie is ONE!

Hattie’s mom, Shanna, brought her in last month for a one year birthday cake smash photography session. Shanna (yes, her name is both spelled and pronounced the same as mine!) wanted to do a strawberry theme to go along with the banner and adorable outfit she had made for Hattie. What a talented lady! Looks like when it comes to the sewing machine she is a force to be reckoned with! Both the outfit and the banner were so cute and I was more than willing to figure out something a little different to match. 

Eugene, Oregon maternity photographer: Milk bath with Kelsey

Kelsey came in for a milk bath maternity photography session last month. She was expecting a little boy in early November. Needless to say, he is here now! I did his Fresh 48 photos in the hospital shortly after he was born, and will be doing his newborn photos as well. He’s such a sweetheart! Be sure to keep an eye on the blog   for his pictures!

Eugene, Oregon baby photographer: 6-month milestone session with Lily

 Oh my goodness, you are going to love the photos of this sweet baby girl! What an angel face! Audrey and Daniel brought Lily to my Eugene, Oregon photography studio at the end of March for her 6-month milestone photography session. Most of the 6-month-olds I photograph are little ones I took pictures of as newborns, but Lily and her parents were first-time clients. It was wonderful to meet them. And we had so much fun together! I usually set aside an hour for milestone sessions, but I very rarely use the whole time with 6-month-olds because they tend to get tired by about the 40 minute mark. Not Lily! She was sweet-faced and smiley the entire hour. I didn’t even want to stop at that point because we were having such a good time. And honestly, she was probably one of the most gorgeous, photogenic babies I’ve ever photographed. She seriously has the most perfect little face! She loved the camera, and the camera definitely loved her! Because Lily was so happy and cooperative, we go...
