Eugene, Oregon Baby and Child Photography: Beautiful Summer Nights

There's a beautiful field near my new studio that I have fallen in love with since late Spring. It has so many different stages and they are all beautiful. I really loved the idea of doing Summer mini sessions there. The problem in my opinion, is I really only like photographing outdoors during Golden Hour--the 1 hour before sunset. I actually like it best 15-20 minutes before sunset because the lighting is gorgeous. Since that doesn't really work with the nature of my normal mini sessions (I usually schedule back-to-back all day long, I decided to do 2 nights per week for 3 weeks in July. I did the last 45 minutes before sunset and did 2 families per night. It resulted in some amazingly gorgeous images. And I was so happy to meet some new clients as well. Enjoy!

Eugene, Oregon newborn photographer: Welcome Emmett!

This little guy was so precious! Sarah and Brian brought in their new cutie Emmett for newborn photos back in November. (I’m actually having a hard time believing we’re already through the first quarter of 2022! Is that just me?) He was a total sweetheart! Parents are always welcome to bring special items from home. In this case, mom and dad brought a colorful quilt that a family member had made. Even though our session took place in the fall, the quilt’s bright colors reminded me of spring! It also gave us a beautiful splash of color, since most of our photos were with all-white backgrounds. A blue beanbag and heart from my studio collection of props matched the quilt perfectly. Since this newborn photography session took place just a month before Christmas, mom and dad requested a holiday setup. This is always a fun option if your session takes place shortly before a major holiday like Christmas or Easter. It’s generally easy to work in just a single holiday-themed setup, and these k...
