Class of 2013::Marshall

Marshall was such an awesome guy to work with.  He had such a ready smile and we had some engaging conversations.  I don't think I've ever had someone (much less a young man) ask me so much about ME and my work. :)  He was great, doing everything I threw his way, even when he wasn't sure of where I was going with it!  And I guess I'll forgive you for not bringing your soccer gear (apparently he has PLENTY of photos playing soccer....whatever). :) Just teasin'!  Congratulations!

Maternity in the Gorge::The Mortlock Family

I haven't done a maternity shoot in a LONG time, and was so excited to work with the Mortlock's again.  They have been blessed with a little baby boy soon to be joining their family.  And sweet big sis, Noella, was as cooperative as ever.  I love how mom and dad bring Noella's older cousins to come help keep her "happy" for her shoot.  We get her set and it's like, "Ok, boys, GO!" and they start singing and dancing behind me.  It's so funny!  What was special about this location was that when Paul and Gretchen were pregnant with Noella, they took their own maternity photos here.  So now with baby Ezra, they returned to this spot with the baby that was in the belly the first time.

I'm not much of a landscape photographer, but I'm so pleased with this image.  It's so gorgeous and shows the beauty of where we were.
