Eugene, Oregon Baby and Child Photographer: One-Year Bubbles and Snowflakes with Glory


The Coleman family was back in the studio in November and I was so excited to see them all! I’ve gotten to know this family really well over the past few years since becoming their family photographer. My first session with them was when their oldest, Goldie, was a year old, and we’ve been meeting regularly to record their family memories ever since.

This was mostly a baby and child photography session to capture Glory (baby number two) for her one-year milestone, but we did some family pictures as well. I had just done my Christmas minis (which turned out great, by the way—be sure to check them out here if you haven’t seen them yet), and they requested that I leave the snow setup I’d used so we could incorporate that as well. I was happy to do it! Amber, Grant, Goldie, and Glory all loved it! It was very popular during my Christmas minis as well. All the fun of snow without any of the cold and wet. What’s not to love?

Glory’s birthday is just a few weeks before Christmas, which is so fun. When she was a newborn, we got to do some holiday-themed photos. Santa Claus even showed up for part of our session! We didn’t see Santa this time, but we did have a ton of fun playing in the faux snow, throwing fluffy snowballs, and posing on my sled.

We decided to do a bubble bath, complete with rubber ducky, for part of this baby and child photography session. I have the perfect size tub for little ones. (I don’t think there’s anything cuter than a baby in a tub. A cake smash followed by a bubble bath is a popular option for one-year baby photography—check out the portfolio for ideas!) Glory loved tub time, and her little grin is just the best! Both of these girls are so smiley and happy. Always have been from the first time I met them!

It’s always a joy to have this family in the studio. Whether it’s for newborn, milestone, or family pictures, we always have a wonderful time together. It was great to see the whole family again (can’t believe how fast the girls are growing), and I’m already looking forward to next time!

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...
