I’ve been reading a lot of Montessori books lately as I work on fixing up part of the basement to be a sort of preschool learning area for Tuesday. The phrase, “Help me to do it myself” comes up a lot. I love the idea of it, but we’re having trouble with the implementation over …

My first birth
It’s really late, or really early, or whatever. I just got back from photographing my first birth. Amazing, and humbling and just so so cool. I’m on a total birth high, and I didn’t even have to give birth! p.s. he beat Valentine’s day by one minute.

My lovely friend was visiting from Vermont and I squeezed in a photo shoot for her on Christmas Eve morning. It was so dark and cloudy and yuck. But some creative furniture re-arranging and popping outside for a …
Salem Oregon Beach Photographer
Ha! I wish! For those of you who don’t know this area the beach is an hour away… and you can rarely get away with wearing anything less than a fleece. Yes, we’re back from a lovely Hawaiian vacation. So sorry if you were on the flight back with us and our sick daughter who …
Family Shoot on the Farm — Salem Oregon Child and Family Photographer
I squeezed in one more photo shoot a few cold weekends ago to capture my friend Karen and her twin 18 month old girls. It was so so cold, and the ground was very wet. But we lucked out and had clear skies. This is Karen’s husband; it’s his family’s farm. Love this one… the …
