Heather and Steve are my past bride and groom from 2009. They welcomed their baby boy in February of this year and I’m SO very happy for them! We’ve been trying to schedule a baby session for the little guy so hopefully I get to meet him soon! Here’s Heather’s mini maternity session that we did just 2 weeks before he arrived

Heather {Vancouver, WA Maternity Photography}
May 18, 2012Stay in the Know! Latest Sessions are on Facebook!
November 1, 2011I’ve been pretty behind in blogging lately with wedding senior season wrapping up, but it’s been pretty easy for me to post a quick picture or 2 of what I’m working on and sessions I just shot. Become a fan (or “like”) my Facebook page to keep up to date on all my latest work.
Expecting #1! {Portland, OR Maternity Photography}
May 18, 2011I’ve known Tricia ever since her sister Tara and I were best friends in the 4th grade. She drove me to high school in our car pool, and we were bridesmaids together in Tara’s wedding. I’m SO excited for her and her husband Ryan expecting their first child! We took some maternity pictures after her nephew Orren’s cake smash session a few weeks ago. Their son Henry was born last Friday and I photographed his newborn session yesterday. Thought I’d better get these up on my blog! Henry’s newborn session will be coming to the blog soon!
Congrats Tricia and Rian!!
My Brother’s Getting Married! {Portland, OR Engagement Session}
February 15, 2011Ahhhhh! I can’t believe my little brother is old enough to be getting married! Still surreal
I took Bryan and Lindsey out to the Hawthorne Bridge so my sister Katie can get started on their save-the-dates. This wedding is definitely a family affair…I’m doing their engagement pictures, my sister designed their STD cards, and my mom drew their wedding logo! So fun! I’ll be doing another enagement session for them once it gets a little nicer. We’ll go down to the beach and get some beautiful sunset beach shots! Stay tuned!
They are such a cute couple. We are so excited to have Lindsey join our family. Love you guys!!
Ilene {Portland, OR Maternity Session}
November 24, 2010I met with Ilene and her husband Parker on one of our beautiful indian summer days last month (how fast did it get COLD this year..crazy!). They live by a beautiful neighborhood lake in Beaverton, it was the perfect spot for pictures! Congrats Ilene and Parker on the birth of your baby girl!
Belly to Baby Book {Professional Album Design}
June 9, 2010I have been wanting to do this album for a client for SO long and was so excited when my maternity and newborn client Sheena loved it as much as I did! Such a fun idea.
On one side is your maternity session, and the other side is the newborn!
Click Chicks Beach Retreat {Maternity Photography}
April 8, 2010This post is looooong overdue. 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!
Sheena {Maternity Session}
March 2, 2010Sheena was my first client to be photographed at my new house! 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!

New Brand — New Kind of Photography!
January 8, 20102010 is bringing lots of changes to Take 5 Photography! 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!
