I got to do a shoot tonight with a family friend I’ve known since we moved to Oregon when I was five (24 years ago!) It had been many years since we’d seen each other and it was so fun to meet her boys and husband. Here are a couple photographs from the shoot.

This is one of my sweet nieces who came to visit for a week last month.

After I took a few shots of her, she asked if she could take some pictures of me, so I gave her the camera and then my oldest came running over. I love that she got this shot because I’m almost certain an adult never could have coaxed that kind of smile out of Ezra.

Because we are back in Oregon for a bit, I had the opportunity to photograph some good friends and their super cute and chubby little boy. We went to Jackson Frazier Wetlands park in Corvallis and the sun was just setting. I’m posting a few pictures now with more to come soon.
