The rainy season is in full swing here, in Oregon.  As a photographer who prefers to shoot outdoors, this saddens me a bit.  Yesterday wrapped up my first Fall mini session.  The rain disappeared and even the sun decided to make an appearance.  Summer Lake Park was the perfect location for this beautiful couple and their adventuresome little boy!   I have so much fun working with little boys who are so ready to tromp around, explore and have a good time.  This little guy did not disappoint!  

Fall in Oregon is simply gorgeous and it seems extra vibrant and colorful this year.  I was delighted to meet up with the Bernard family at Laurelhurst Park.  This family has such a great sense of fun and adventure that is evident by their pictures.  Enjoy your sneak peak!

My very fist set of mini sessions EVER were truly a great experience!  However, at the last minute, we changed locations for the first family for fear of rain.  Luckily, the weather ended up being fabulous and the Hoyt Arboretum is such a lovely fall site for a family session.  I couldn't have asked for better mini models.  These two kiddos were full of smiles and so willing to follow directions - how dreamy, right?  Just take a look and you'll see what I mean!  

Fall is in the air.  I am already cooking soup and baking cookies.  I absolutely love this time of year!  I am offering two mini session dates this fall on October 5th and November 2nd at two different locations.  I love both Dawson Creek and Laurelhurst Park for family portraits.  There is room for small kids to run and play and beautiful scenery with fall trees and water features at both locations.  I will have a limited number of available sessions on each day so please contact me early if you would like to reserve a spot.  These mini sessions are a really affordable way to gather new family pictures for your Holiday card or to give as gifts to Grandparents or others.  In addition to the mini sessions, I am available to schedule a full family session at a location of your choice.  I have a lot of fun holiday props for your little ones - santa hats, reindeer hats, a frosty the snowman set up and more!  A full family session lasts between 1-2 hours and includes 20-40 digital images with a print release which allows you to print, share and upload the photos as you please!  You can find more information here.
