I had a photo shoot with a sweet family this weekend. You may have noticed that I’m not taking many new clients right now… I’m working on extended maternity leave. Seeing the lovely little kids that I shot Saturday made me want to come home and capture some of what Tuesday is right now. Obsessed …

Summer Camp
Ahhh summer camp, how I love it. This week I’ve been volunteering at a camp for foster kids separated from their siblings called Camp to Belong. The camp is at the Y camp at the Silver Falls State Park. I happened to go to a horse camp here when I was younger, so total flashbacks! …

cut it out, gift it up
Our favorite twins turned two this week and we celebrated in style. I wanted to do something fun for their presents and decided to go with matching (well coordinating) tee shirts.

I was honored that she let me be there, and that she wanted the slideshow to be her special birthday …
Help me to do it myself
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 …
Part of my bow pair.
I know you long time readers have heard me mention my “crew girls” many times. I’ve heard from some of you that you thought that meant my crew, as in posse. I call them crew girls because we rowed together at Oregon State. The summer between my Freshman and Sophomore years was my first as …
