Eugene, Oregon baby and child photographer: Evelyn is ONE!

 

Tiffany and Andrew brought cute little Evelyn came back to the studio at the end of July for her one-year photos. Isn’t she adorable? I first met this little sweetie when she was six months old, and she is just as cute as the last time I saw her. Don’t believe me? Check out her six-month session here. I guarantee it will make your day!

I remember Evelyn being a super smiley baby at six months, and she was a super smiley toddler at one year old. During this baby and child photography session she gave me these huge, toothy grins that I just loved. Although she hadn’t turned off the smiles at our last session, I wasn’t sure if it would be the same this time. Sometimes babies have developed a bit of stranger danger by the time they’ve hit that one-year mark. Not the case with Evelyn though! She wasn’t shy at all and had an absolute blast working the camera.

As a baby and child photographer, I guess I should be used to how much these little ones change in a short space of time, but I honestly couldn’t believe how much Evelyn had grown since our last photo shoot together. She’s gotten so tall! I was glad to see that she still has that amazing red hair though. I hope that never changes. You just can’t help but love a redhead!

Just like with her six-month session, we took advantage of our time in the studio to get a few updated family photos as well as toddler pics of Miss Evelyn. (All of my full sessions come with the option of including parents and siblings, so even if you want to focus on the little one, we can still get a few family pictures too.) We also recreated some of our shots from last time, including the one with Evelyn’s parents swinging her out into the foreground of the photo, and the one with Evelyn holding on to mom and dad’s hands. (You can get some idea of how tall she’s gotten from comparing this shot with the same one from six months ago!)

It was so great to welcome this family back to my Eugene, Oregon photography studio. They are so much fun, and it was the perfect way to wrap up the month. I hope I’ll be seeing them regularly for pictures as Evelyn gets older—I’d love to work with them again!

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...
