b and w family portraits

happy mother's day!  here's a sweet family i had the pleasure of working with in NE Portland.  i spent about an hour hanging out with these two sisters and parents at their home.  these "play date" portrait sessions are one of my favorite parts of my job.  

all photos happily taken by SARA VANDEPAS!

portland winter wedding: se miraron tan felices

these two love birds met in mexico, fell in love, hired me and had the sweetest bilingual ceremony i've ever attended. the  aqua riva restaurant and venue is right near portland's city center on macadam.

very little spanish is spoken by her family and very little english by his but the love and support for these two was palpable all night.

felicidades a ustedes y las dos familias. 

les agradezco por la oportunidad de estar alli en su dia tan especial. 

happy spring and easter and flowers blooming!!

here's to sweet new growth and the promise of spring.

may you enjoy your family and friends today and allow yourself to move brightly forward as you wish.

these bursting bulbs are from my recent trip to visit a friend in Nurenberg, Germany.  

just because these are still cracking me up

best ever "officiant with bride and groom" photos.

 whhaaaa, wwhhaaaa, wwwhhhhaaaaaaaaa!

la nueva actriz: the many faces of caira

This little one's parents are both actors here in Portland. Their daughter's newborn portraits show off some fabulous expressions.  I wonder where she got these skills!
