Happy Valentines Day!

Ryllie is (almost) Six Session!

Poor Ryllie. Everyone in her family has had their own photo session with me. Mom had a Maternity Session. And we did the whole Family at the same time. Brother Braeden got his Three Year old pictures taken. And finally - brother Conner had a newborn session! PHEW!! So I PROMISED Ryllie that someday we would do a shoot just with her. Well I've learned that five year olds don't let you forget about such things.  She stayed on me until her mom and I set a date! And what an awesome day it was!

 

So, I don't have a little girl - or even have any little girls in our family, so I kind of went a little crazy for this shoot, I saw this umbrella, the tutu, the parasol, and most of her clothes... (lol) and had to get them for Ryllie! It was too much fun.

To say she was a fan of the tutu might be an understatement. ;) I overheard her say to her mom - "Mama, I love this tutu too much!"

But somehow we talked her into an outfit change, but only if it involved the parasol.  A girl has got to accessorize!

My Favorite!!

As we were walking around downtown Albany, she was full of great ideas as to places that would "make a good picture." One of her ideas was to have a ladybug be in the pictures with her.  Sheri and I nodded our heads and agreed, knowing that wasn't going to happen. Not 15 seconds later, what does Ryllie find in the grass? You guessed it.

 

 

I hope you enjoyed your own personal photo session Ryllie!! Have so much fun in Kindergarten!

Braeden is Three! Baby Photography - Albany, Oregon

Have you noticed what a particularly beautiful year it has been for Fall colors?  Seriously, WOW!!

Braeden's mom and I go WAY back... she was one of my very first friends when I started at OSU, she lived next door to me in the dorms and then we shared an apartment in Corvallis together. Now she is all settled down about two blocks away from me and is a fabulous Mama (which totally sounds ADORABLE when this little guy says it!!)

We have been walking by the spot on our "Try to be daily end up being bi-weekly" walks thinking it would be the perfect spot for pictures... we finally coordinated our schedules over the weekend and we were right! :)

He was a little shy at first... but rocked it for the camera eventually :)

Such a fantastic little guy!
