Eugene, Oregon newborn photographer: Welcome Easton!


I had so much fun doing this baby boy’s newborn photography session! Little Easton is such a cutie and it was great to see the whole family again. I worked with them when their daughter McKenzie was born and again for her one-year milestone session, and it’s always a joy to work with them. They are a wonderful family. I’ve known Brittany and Ryan for a while now—since before anyone started calling them mommy and daddy! They brought both of the kiddos to my Eugene, Oregon photography studio last month so we could get pictures of everyone.

I was so excited about Easton’s arrival! Ryan and Brittany had an uphill battle trying to have their first baby (McKenzie decided to scare everyone by arriving nine weeks early and had to spend some time in the NICU)—so I was thrilled when I learned they were expecting little brother!

Big sister McKenzie did amazing with photos for me yet again. She is totally infatuated with her baby brother and loved on him so much during our newborn photography session. She’s such a cutie and it was fun to see her bright smile as she showed off baby Easton for me. It’s super fun to see older siblings taking care of the new little one.

I have a ton of props, outfits, and accessories for clients to choose from when they come to see me. Theme and color preferences vary widely from one family to another, and I want your session to be unique to you, so I make sure I have plenty of choices for everyone. Ryan and Brittany requested a Ducks outfit. As a Eugene, Oregon photographer, I think it’s pretty much a requirement to have baby outfits in the local sports team colors! It’s a very popular choice with parents, many of whom are sports fans, and some of whom have connections with the University through work or school. Doesn’t Easton look adorable in his little green and yellow outfit?

Brittany and Ryan also chose my little deer hat. I have several animal hats like this and they are great for woodland and animal-themed nurseries, animal lovers, or just people who (like me) think babies look adorable in these cute and cozy caps.

Ryan is a pilot, so of course we had to use my wooden plane prop. This is one of my favorite props, especially for baby boys. I even have a nice soft helmet and goggles for your little pilot to wear.

Another great session with an amazing family! (No surprises there.) So happy for Brittany, Ryan, and their sweet family. Can’t wait until the next time I see them—in the studio or out!

Eugene and Springfield, Oregon Newborn Photographer: Welcome Bennett

Sweet little Bennett is so lucky to have such a great family.  His big brother is absolutely adorable and his parents are just so nice :)  I thoroughly enjoyed my time with them!  Bennett is an alert little guy!  He wants to be awake and look at my light and take everything in around him :)  Reminds me of my older daughter.  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...
