Kate & David were married June 14th at McMenamins Cornelius Pass Roadhouse at the octagonal barn. These two had a beautiful laid back wedding and were surrounded by so many loving friends & family. Kate & David are absolutely adorable together. My favorite parts of the day was just watching them smile back and forth at each other especially David. I caught so many photos of him just in awe of Kate. You truly found a good one Kate and same to you David. So happy for the both of you and thanks again for letting me capture your beautiful wedding day.

I’ve been lucky enough to capture a ton of memories for Cathy & Tim. They were my first engagement shoot way back in 2010 and since then i have done maternity, newborn and family photos for them. I just love seeing their family grow and was super excited to do newborn photos for Scarlett.

Scarlett arrived about a week earlier and a lot faster then planned. Which, i think Mom was a bit happy with some of that. Scarlett came home to the most beautiful nursery. Her Mom is the queen of design and creating the cutest things. Can’t wait to see all the stuff that will be made for Scarlett throughout the years.

Really happy i caught some fun ones of Scarlett & Luke. Luke was a bit hesitant holding Scarlett but i think we got some memorable ones. Enjoy!

Miss Ruby Jean arrived almost 2 weeks after her due date but as we can see, she was well worth the wait. My friends, Chuck & Liz seem like naturals at this parenting thing. Ruby made visits to the gym with Dad to get shown off and was shopping with Mom all in the first week. I’m sure she will be on the volleyball courts and four wheeling on the dunes very soon. Ruby is also lucky to come home to a best friend. As you can see she has a protective big “sister” all ready. Head down towards the end of this post and you will see Stella & Ruby. The best of friends!

While visiting Las Vegas last October, I was able to get a shoot in with my friend Karen and her family at her beautiful home. Karen & I go way back. We grew up in the same neighborhood, went to the same high school, played basketball together and then later we ended up living together in Las Vegas for a bit. I have always been so thankful to have some of my hometown friends while living in Las Vegas. There was a few of us that left Washington to live in Las Vegas. It’s great to have people around that know where you came from. Now I get to go back and visit and crash her place. 🙂

It’s been fun watching Karen’s daughter grow up all though I wish I lived closer so i can see her every day. This girl is so full of personality, as you can see in all of these photos. Enjoy!

P.S. If you have come across some of my photos and live in Las Vegas. I do travel there a lot. Message me if you are interested!

Fun Lifestyle Family Photography | Photographers of Portland - […] .I just love letting kids be kids during a shoot. Maybe have them do things that their parents usually tell them not to do… like jump & dance on the bed. My goal is to let the kids have fun and it will bring out the kid in you during your family shoot . To see more from this shoot head on over to Jen Gardner Photography’s blog […]
