Adorable family!

November 22, 2009

Every once in awhile, I get the opportunity to photography the cutest families! This one was no exception. Ella is quite the mover and the shaker – she is not interested in sitting down – EVER! She just wants to MOVE!!! We had a fun afternoon taking family photos and keeping Ella interested. I love taking pictures of kids before they have any inhibitions – it’s just cuteness on overdrive!! Hope you enjoy the sneak peak from their session!!

Okay, say it . . .I'm too cute for words!!

Seriously . . you cannot make me sit still!!!

This is fun!!!

Please . . .no photos!!!

Happy Halloween!

November 3, 2009

I love Halloween! I love it when little kids get all dressed up (okay, I like it when adults do it to) – but the kids are really cute! We spent Halloween with our close friends and I couldn’t resist getting some pictures of the kids getting ready to head out!

Awww, isn't it cute when they play nice?

Snow White and Storm Shadow

Super happy and ready for CANDY!!

Saturday morning at the park!

November 3, 2009

I have photographed these kiddos several times and they just couldn’t be any cuter! We spent a chilly morning at the park having some fun – well, there was some crying and a dead catepillar – but in the end, everything turned out great! Thanks for letting me document year number two and five!

Too sweet!

Dad was having some fun - who says getting your picture taken can't be fun??

Pumpkins and elephants!!

November 3, 2009

On Friday, the Oregon Zoo did their annual “Squishing of the Squash”! I had never heard of it, but I know a good photo opportunity when I hear one! We have a baby elephant named Samudra at the Oregon Zoo that turned one in August and he got to participate in this years squish. I was SO EXCITED to finally see him! I can’t even begin to describe how cute and playful he is!
The HUGE pumpkin donated by the Wilson Family Farm for the Squishing of the Squash event weighed in at 1350 pounds! The elephants had so much fun and so did I! Al’s Garden Center also donated pumpkins for the elephants and other animals. It was pumpkins and animals all weekend long! I wish I could have seen more of the fun – but for now, you can enjoy some pictures of the elephants enjoying their giant squished squash!

I didn't get to see them squish it, but I got to see the feast!

I thought it was so cute how they were feeding each other!

A close up of Mom - isn't she cute???

Okay seriously, isn't it cute how they interact with each other?

Enjoying the pumpkins!

Happy Fall!

November 3, 2009

I am often amazed at the rate that time seems to zoom by – how is it possible that I have not posted on my blog in over a month? I apologize for getting so wrapped up in the “busy”ness of life! Fall is absolutely my favorite time of year. There is just something about all of the beautiful colors and the cool, crisp air that makes me feel giddy! It’s also the time of year when Cali’s allergies finally start to settle down and we begin to see our nearly eleven year old dog start to act like a young pup again! She loves the cold weather and you can tell by the gleam in her eye and the bounce in her step. We both feel invigorated by the cooler weather! I hope you are enjoying your Fall!!

Happy Fall!!
