Eugene, Oregon newborn photographer: Welcome Isla!

 Hope you are all staying safe! It’s been a crazy week here in Eugene, with wildfires burning along our beautiful McKenzie River and smoke filling the skies. Definitely thinking of all the families throughout Oregon and elsewhere who are struggling right now, and I’m sending thoughts and prayers! With everything going on at the moment, I figured we could all use something to smile about—so here are some sweet baby pictures that will hopefully be a bright spot in your day.

Meghann, Gabriel, Levi, and Bennett brought in new baby sister Isla last month for a newborn photography session. It was so good to see this family again, and what a treat to be able to have them all in the studio at once! I haven’t seen the whole family together since I did Bennett’s newborn pictures—and you can see from the photos that that was a while ago!

I feel especially lucky that I got to be their newborn photographer again because they had actually moved away. But they were back in Eugene just in time for Isla’s birth and were able to get on the schedule for baby pictures.

Having the whole family together was too good an opportunity to pass up, so we made sure that we got pictures of Isla with mom, dad, and both of her big brothers. Levi and Bennett were so good with the new little one—I love the picture of them both kissing the top of her little head. So precious! And Isla is such a cutie. It totally made my day that she kept giving me these sweet little half-smiles in her sleep.

Mom chose some really cute, fun colors for Isla’s newborn photography session. We kept the family pictures pretty neutral, but when it was just solo shots of Isla we had fun playing around with a bright color scheme that was perfect for summer. The yellow and purple combination isn’t a request I get often, but the pics turned out adorable!

So glad I got to welcome this wonderful family to my Eugene, Oregon photography studio again. It’s always fun to welcome return clients back and see how their families are growing. Congratulations to this family on a beautiful new addition!

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...
