Rochelle is one of my Roseburg High School Senior Models for the Class of 2011. I love this shot of her from our senior model field trip, and not just because the Oregon Ducks are represented on the carnival ride! This was a CRAZY day but we had a ton of fun!!

summer

Totally off topic… well, not really I guess since there is a PHOTO! Yesterday I was photographing some of my high school senior models and while I was waiting for them to change their outfits I saw this blackberry bush… Few things say “summer” to me as much as blackberries! I remember picking them until my fingers were blue and sticky (and my belly fuller than the bowl to be honest!) Love, love, love the blackberries! Hope everyone is having a fabulous summer!

I think that 2010 is going to have to be dubbed the “year of the canoe” for me! This is my second wedding couple of the year to get into a canoe during their wedding portraits! How lucky am I to have such fun couples? Lisa and Ryan’s wedding was not just fun it was really beautiful. There were jelly jars with flowers strung from the trees, and flowers everywhere, not to mention the gorgeous location on the river! Here are just a few of my favorites from their day.

I was so excited to have a baby girl in the studio! It seems like the past five or six newborns I have photographed have been boys. What a sweet little thing Miss Molly was! Her mom followed all of my tips, including getting Molly in for her portraits when she was nice and new, just 5 days old! Makes for the best sleepy baby photos ever. Molly’s daddy definitely took one for the team at her session as well… anything for a cute nakey photo right? nuff said….

I love engagement sessions in general but this one was super fun! We started with some fun urban shots and then finished in a field of daisies! Has anyone else noticed the abundance of daisies this year? It must have something to do with the wet spring, in any case it was a great field! Here are some of my favorites from our session.

bangs family portraits | roseburg oregon family photographer

What a fun session this was. Both Kayla and Jerime grew up in the Douglas County area and now live in Las Vegas, so when they were home for a visit Kayla’s mom scheduled a family portrait session for them. Their little guy, Damon, is just so cute! Kayla is a hair stylist so of course his hair was perfect for his session! I asked them to bring a quilt so that we could sit in the grass which was slightly damp and I fell in LOVE with the one that they brought! I am now on the hunt for a similar one to keep on hand, so if you see one please let me know. Here are just a few of my favorites from their session…

intimate vineyard wedding | roseburg oregon wedding photographer

Dulce — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 18:56:22 +0000

This was the first time that I had photographed a wedding at Delfino Vineyards and it is so pretty! They have a little pond with a pier AND a canoe that my bride and groom took for a spin! While the guest list was small at this event you could tell the love was not! One of the brides best friends acted as officiant at the wedding, standing up for the groom were his two sons, and standing up for the bride was her “step-daughter to be” and another best friend… who just happened to be a guy! He was jokingly called the “dude of honor.” And can you imagine my delight when the bride told me her dog was going to be a part of the day! You know me and dogs…. love those fur kids! It was a beautiful wedding, colors where amazing, fun … fun … fun couple, and you really could feel the love between the bride and groom. So … here a few of my favorite photos from the day… it was SO hard to choose!

flirt | southern oregon boudoir photographer

Dulce — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 23:40:20 +0000

As many of you know I spent last weekend at a seminar for Professional Photographers of Oregon. One of the classes that I took was on boudoir photography. Whitney Stevens led the class and she had some great tips and tricks for making boudoir sessions fun and flirty! I had so much fun I have decided to start offering “boudoir portrait” parties for interested ladies … think “girls night out” with some really great photos for your hubby! Our model for the class was gracious enough to allow me to post a couple of photos so that people can get an idea of what boudoir photography is.

One of my favorite wedding couples is expecting a baby this month! I am so excited for them because I know they will make wonderful parents. They came in a couple of weeks ago, YES I am THAT far behind on blog posts, to have some maternity portraits taken. Love, love, love them!! I can’t believe that in a few weeks we will be taking photos of their new little baby!
