{B} Family (Portland Oregon Family Photographer, Gresham Oregon Family Photographer)

I have had the opportunity to photograph parts of this family over the past couple of years and they are always such a joy...Cake smash photos, Christmas photos, Mom with her babies, and this time Dad was able to join too! It is one of my very favorite things about this job, when I get to photograph families over and over again and document them as they change and grow.

Please believe me when I say that I DO NOT expect kids to stand/sit still, look at the camera, and give me their best smile...and you shouldn't either :) If you try to force them it's probably not going to go well. You'll end up with upset kiddos and that's no good...for family photos, especially. So, when I photograph kids I want to do what works for them...though I have a few tricks up my sleeve :) If they sit nicely, look at the camera and smile - great! If not - great! I want to capture your family just the way you are...create images for you to cherish and to help you remember that time in your life for years to come.
