Eugene, Oregon Child Photographer: Annalise and Thea's Milestone Photography Session

As a professional photographer I love all my clients—but I have to admit, I have a soft spot for these two! I first started photographing for this sweet family when Annalise was born—and that’s been six years ago now! It’s been a delight to record Annalise and Thea’s growing up, from birth (or before—I did mom’s maternity session when she was pregnant with Thea) and all the important milestones of their growing up. It’s become an annual tradition to get together and do portraits of these two, and I look forward to spending time with these sweet and silly sisters every year!

This year mom really wanted to do their child photography session in a field. I love this look, but it can actually be pretty hard to accomplish around here in July and August, which is when we did our portraits. Most fields have been mowed by this time to reduce the risk of wildfires. But we found a couple of locations that still had some tall grass, and we did a lot of our session at Mount Pisgah, which has all kinds of fun spots! I loved the variety of backgrounds we were able to get. Fields, trees, water, buildings—we really did get the best of everything!

Annalise and Thea were six and four this year, and a hoot as always! These two are full of fun and personality. And because we’ve gotten to know each other over the years with annual milestone photography sessions, they’re very used to me and my camera, so they really don’t need any time to warm up. They just play and do their thing, making it so easy to get natural and relaxed portraits. And they don’t have any problems posing either!

It was fun to watch these two interact together—they really do get along so well, and I loved capturing the close relationship they have with each other. It grows and changes every year, just like them, which is one of the reasons I’m so glad mom has chosen to invest in annual milestone photography for her daughters. What a treasure these photos will be for both of them!

If you’re waiting for a special occasion to schedule a child photography session for your kiddo, my advice is—don’t wait! My work as a baby and child photographer reminds me every day that childhood itself is a special occasion, and it deserves to be recorded. So get in touch and let’s get your session planned! Whether your little one is a newborn or getting to the not-so-little-anymore stage, we can create a wonderful session to preserve this precious time. Trust me, you’ll be so glad you did!
