Such a fun idea.

I’m just now being able to edit sessions that I have done for fun! What a crazy year…

I belong to a networking group of women photographer’s in the Portland area called the Click Chicks. We got together (I’m almost ashamed to say) back in November and played around with our cameras and the 2 expectant mothers in the group; Melanie and Lorna. Another group member, Maalaea, got back in her wedding dress for a mini trash the dress session (see other TTD sessions here). I’m still working on those and will post them asap.

For now, here are the beautiful mothers!

I’m so excited about the great locations nearby. There’s a stream running through the neighborhood, a playground, and lots of great textured fences to lean against.

Sheena’s sister works for Disney World in Florida and got her a super cute Mickey dress to wear and a stuffed animal for her little one. I have a feeling Jakob is going to be well stocked in all things Disney! Sheena also brought along her dog Summer…so fun! My kitty loved playing with her while we were taking pictures.

Sheena had her baby boy last week, hospital and newborn pictures coming soon! Congrats girl!

I’m launching a new wedding website sometime next month and totally re-branding my portrait site, blog, marketing materials, and client proofing process. I will be keeping the old logo for my weddings, but since I shoot mainly portraits I thought it would be fun to have a new look! I’m super excited about the new branding and even more excited to show you all the cool modern products I’m going to be offering. So fun!

For now…here’s the new logo! New sites launching next month!

(Pictures of that coming soon!) I was so happy when she mentioned she’d like maternity pictures before her son arrived. Good thing we did the session when we did…baby Jack came 2 weeks early (those pictures are coming soon too! I better get back to editing!). Jenae was an absolutely beautiful expectant mother. Thank you Jenae and Justin for allowing me to capture such a wonderful time in your life!
