To love a Marine...

First of all, thank you to all of you who are serving or who have served our great country and to those of you who support and love them!

Taking photos for this couple was inspring and a ton of fun! Full of laughter and good spirits, these two are meant to be together and are a great example of a Military marriage.

These photos are some of my most proud as of yet, and I can only hope there are more opportunities for me to photograph Military families.

I am proud to be an American.

Enjoy.

Class of 2012, Emileigh...

My first High School senior portraits! 

And, as I have said about other sessions, I LOVED IT! 

She is such a gorgeous girl and fun to be around.  As we wandered around Oregon City, there were countless opportunities for photos and with a 'model' so willing and conscious, it was a breeze!

All I can say is I can hardly wait until my next photo session!!!

Love and Sunshine...

What a great evening of sunshine and photography!

These two really love each other and you can tell in ever photo!

I had a lot of fun with these two,  I dont know how anyone could not have fun around them!

Family Farm Time...

These parents are supermodels and their two daughters are adorable!

I loved taking these photos, as redundant as that seems... We found some horses, which put smiles all over Big Sister's face and made for a fun afternoon!

I can hardly wait to go photograph more families and hopefully some horses as well!

Already a happy family...

What a joy to take photos of this moment in a couple's life together! Just seeing the pure excitement and anticipation in their eyes is priceless.

Nicole is glowing and beautiful and I could tell Jesse is so proud!

These two were a great sports and I really appreciated their faith in my art and them letting me photograph them at this stage of their lives.

Must Love Dogs...

I had a fun time photographing Matt and Ashley and their dogs Maverick and Romeo!

There was a lot of laughing and a lot of great photo opportunities... She was a trooper in her high heels!

Oregon City, as I have said before, is an awesome city and lends itself so effortlessly to great photography.

Ninety Years Young...

This was my Great Grandmother's 90th birthday party with all her kids and their cousins that are still with us... It was a pleasure to see them all in the same room for the first time in who knows how many years!

It was also great practice for photographing an 'event'...

Enjoy
