Baby Banta | Portland Lifestyle Photographer

03.11.14 No comments

Right now as i am typing my friends are at the hospital preparing for baby Banta’s arrival. These two are waiting to find out if they are having a boy or a girl?! I think its pretty cool that they decided on waiting to find out the sex of the baby, especially since this will be their first. Either way i’m excited… as are many others!!

I met with Chuck, Liz & Stella a couple of weeks ago and we did some photos around their beautiful home that had just been remodeled a bit, just in time for baby Banta’s arrival. Stay in touch! I’m sure i will be posting some newborn photos soon. Will this beautiful baby be a boy or a girl?!

MISS ISLA | LAS VEGAS & PORTLAND CHILD PHOTOGRAPHER

02.13.14 1 comment

I love being able to travel to Las Vegas a couple times a year. Its great to see my old friends from when i lived there but i truly love being able to see their kids and of course photograph them! This day i followed Isla around Wetlands Park in Henderson. She is natural in front of the camera.

Isla’s Mom (Tara) and I met about 10 years ago through a mutual friend. Just this past week Tara graduated nursing school at Roseman University of Health Sciences. She is a single mother and does it all on her own. So proud of you Tara and congratulations!

Back in October i had the chance to photograph one of my favorite families in Las Vegas at Wetlands Park. This was my first time meeting Josh & Blair’s son, Jackson. These two have trusted me with a lot of important moments in their life. I shot their wedding and maternity photos and now family pics. At the bottom of the post you’ll find some of my favorite shots of all three. Enjoy.. and seriously, they have the cutest son ever! Wetlands_Park_Las_Vegas_Family_Children_Photographer_0001.jpg

Williams Family | Salem, Oregon Family Photo Shoot

Years ago, Cristina and I went to Clackamas Community College together. All though we’re friends online we havent actually seen each other in years. One of the last times we hung out was about 7 years ago when i was living in Las Vegas. So when Cristina asked me to take her family photos i was pretty excited since i would get to see her and meet her family. Kai just turned 1 right before these pictures were taken. I loved being able to capture these special moments for Cristina & Jeff.

Here are some of my favorites from their shoot. Enjoy!
