Zan & Desi

SO MUCH FUN! That's what this session was. Desi and Zan are such an amazing, hardworking couple. They are kind and gentle with one another and so sweet to watch. Zan, I could tell, was a bit nervous but when I told him to kiss his beautiful future wife I could tell he'd be okay with all the picture taking as long as he could do that. Desi has been planning for this engagement session for a while... I got her hooked on pintrest! She came with loads of totally unique ideas, beautiful accessories and that truck!! Oh that truck! I'm so, so thankful that I get to shoot Desi and Zan's wedding this September and can't wait to see all of the amazing ideas that they come up with for the big day!

Urban Baby Bonnets

 These hats are the cutest things ever!!! I am in love with Collette's style and design on these adorable little bonnets, so much so that I asked her to let me take some photos of them! Luckily she was game for my experimentation and let me try two of her hats on my little creatures. I am loving taking on these little projects! I just finished assisting the amazing Pat Boemer on a shoot for Adidas at Bandon Dunes, Oregon's most famous golf course. It was an amazing learning opportunity as Pat is a seasoned photographer, well coursed in lighting and all things photographic. I was in total ah at his ability to judge lighting within a stop of perfect exposure without even looking through the lens! While I'm no Pat Boemer, it was a great experience to assist him and learn from a pro and I got my first taste of product photography. Urban Baby Bonnets have been super fun to play with and shoot, just in my own time as I come up with an idea. It's definitely helping my creative back log since having my little Willow almost six months ago!
