MISSY | PORTLAND MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHER

This is my dear friend, Missy.  She and her husband, Patrick, are expecting a baby boy.  And my guess is this little guy is going to be HANDSOME!  Just look at these two.  I am so excited for them.  Missy is also a photographer, check out her work here!

DELILAH | PORTLAND BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

Delilah is now 6 months old!  She was such a pleasure to photograph as a newborn and her disposition hasn’t changed.  She was sweet and smiley for her 6 month photos.  Who wouldn’t be smiling about sunshine in Oregon in January??  Delilah is also a one of my Baby Plan clients…you can see the maternity photos here and her newborn photos here.  She turns 1 in July!

Demarie - I really like the contrast of the bright colors she is wearing and then the black and whites. These pictures turned out very cute and fun! Thank you for sharing!

January 18, 2012 - 7:34 PM

Sue Oneal - Oh my the pictures are just wonerful-the way her eyes pop out so blue–they are perfect! What great shots, of my precious Delilah1

January 17, 2012 - 12:37 PM

Jessica McGowan - Oh my goodness! I love these photos! Delilah’s sweater and headband are cute and compliment her very well.

January 17, 2012 - 9:17 AM

Traci Carothers - I like the b&w, too! I think my favorite is the one in the knit cap and she’s grinning <3. Love the family one's, too!

January 17, 2012 - 6:38 AM

nancy carothers - I really like the first one (black and white). Sometimes the old fashion pictures (black and white) reveal the best images of the person. That one really shows our girl and just how cute she is.

January 16, 2012 - 10:16 PM

Sharie Cornman - She is beautiful and so are the pictures!

January 16, 2012 - 3:56 PM

Michelle Haskew - Beautiful pictures!!!! I can’t decide which one I like the best. Delilah is adorable.

AMI LAMBY

Our little Ami Lamby.  I took this photo yesterday just as we were about to head out the door.  She is wearing her lamby coat from cousin Sierra.  You wouldn’t believe me if I told you about all the coos she get’s from other people when she is out sporting this coat ; )  I could lose myself in those big round eyes.  Her top 1 yr molars are coming in now so she has another teething rash around her mouth.  The top molars have not been nearly as bad as the bottom ones…not sure why that is?  And about two weeks ago, while we were on our trip to NY actually, she mastered the sippy cup.  Big sigh of relief from me.  I’ve been trying to get her to drink from a sippy for Months.  Trying every brand and every trick.  Finally.  Finally, it clicked : )  She’s been such a good and fun girl lately.  Sleeping well and playing hard.

Amity Lynn, 14 months.

LACI 9 MOS | PORTLAND BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

Laci is 9 months old and when I don’t think she could get any cuter she does!  I have been working with Laci and her family for almost a year.  Her parents chose the Baby Plan package.  It is so fun to see her at each session: maternity, newborn, 3 months, 6 months, and here she is at 9 months…  I’ll see her once more when she turns the big ONE!

We took these photos at her home just after the holidays.  She is crawling up a storm and so sweet in the glow of the Christmas tree.  Enjoy!

gina - “Laci’s the fairest of them all”, I’m sure that is what Laci heard when she looked at her reflection in the mirror. If only there was touch-a-vision, I just wanted to pinch her cheeks. I LOVE LACI!

You can just see it in her eyes. Love that you share her photos with everyone.

January 14, 2012 - 9:34 AM

January 14, 2012 - 9:16 AM

January 14, 2012 - 8:51 AM

Aunty Sarah - Adorable!!! Love the all… I can’t believe she is almost one!!! Luv you Laci!!

January 14, 2012 - 7:41 AM

Jen - These are darling. I love the reflection in the ornament!

Wouldn’t a Baby Plan package make a great gift for expecting parents? More people should be on board with that.

January 14, 2012 - 6:37 AM

Gram Laura - Laci, you are the cutest! All pics fabulous…reading by the light of Christmas tree is my favorite :)

Colin makes and teaches yo-yo, check out his website here!  Francis can’t wait to get ahold of one of those!

Francis says, “Merry Christmas!” : )
