Mia and Brent brought their beautiful daughter Zalia in for her newborn photography session in early January. She is such a precious little girl and I had a wonderful time working with her and her family to get these fun and gorgeous baby pictures!

Betty Lou, Shawn, and big sister Josie brought their new twins to my photography studio in Eugene, Oregon last month for a twin newborn photography session! Kellyn (a little boy) and Quinn (a little girl) were so good for me and my assistant, Kim. They were amazing little sleepers and both slept almost the entire way through the session, with only one short break for eating.  I’ve been looking forward to having these two in the studio for months now. Doing Betty Lou’s maternity photographs and a Fresh48 session at the hospital shortly after the twins were born just made me anticipate this newborn session even more, so I’m really glad it went so well. Kellyn and Quinn are so cute, and I loved all the photographs we got of them. 

Nicole and James brought their sweet little guy Maverick in to my photography studio in Eugene, Oregon last month for his newborn photography session. Maverick was such a cutie, with lots of soft dark hair and the sweetest round face. Such a handsome boy!

This was such a fun outdoor maternity photography session! Brittanie had asked me a few months ago about going to the snow for her maternity session, which I was definitely willing to do. I love the snow and hardly ever see it here in Eugene. We decided to shoot at Odell Lake, about an hour and a half southeast of Eugene in Oregon’s Cascade mountains. 

Gabi and Cody brought their two beautiful children in to my photography studio in Eugene, Oregon last month for their newest little one’s newborn photography session. Their new daughter, Emma, is a beautiful little girl, and her big brother Henry is growing into such a handsome guy! It was wonderful to have this family in my studio and I had a great time doing this session. 

I did Betty Lou’s maternity session in November of last year and have been looking forward to the arrival of their twins ever since. Well, guess what? They’re finally here! I was so excited when I heard that they were really and truly on their way, and I’ve had a great time getting their photos all edited and prepped for the blog. I hope you enjoy them!

Harbor is growing up so fast I can’t even believe it. Three years old already! And she’s one of the cutest three-year-olds around, too. As her aunt, it’s possible that I’m just a tad biased in her favor, but seriously. Look at those big brown eyes and sweet smile and tell me I’m wrong.
