I'd never actually been in a Montessori preschool before last week. I've heard about them, and truthfully, I thought my son's preschool was sort of similar to Montessori, but now I know it's not. I've got to say, Montessori is something close to awesome. At least Miss Jessika's Mother Nurture Preschool is. It worked out … Continue reading Mother Nurture Montessori Preschool

Wallace’s
I absolutely love Day-in -the-Life photography. Seeing life through someone's else perspective, walking in their shoes for a tiny bit is just so incredibly interesting. Because real life is truly amazing, and I'm beyond convinced that nothing is ordinary. At this point, I can't actually do day-in-the-life shoots. My people still need me in a … Continue reading Wallace’s
Owen – at home
I went to visit Owen again last week. Some of you might remember he had a traumatic brain injury and was in the hospital for months. He's home now. He's full of energy and full of life. He still has a good amount of recovering to do and frequent physical therapy appointments. He's recovered so much … Continue reading Owen – at home

Why is it a bad idea, you ask? Why shouldn't you do this your self? I will show you. … Continue reading Why you should not DIY your own family photos
My family
Every year, around the Christmas break, I photograph my own family. This presents its own unique challenges. It's impossible to be sure you got a photo of everyone looking into the camera at least once when you're on the receiving end of the picture. My own kids are about 3000% more difficult to photograph in … Continue reading My family
Jonathan – Portland Crossfit trainer
My cousin Jonathan is a trainer at Crossfit Portland, and I recently shadowed one of his personal training sessions with his client, Misty. Misty is hoping to compete in the Crossfit games and is pretty impressive. I learned all kinds of things about bumper plates, keeping one's core stable and why coffee is so much better than … Continue reading Jonathan – Portland Crossfit trainer
Merry Christmas from our (gingerbread making) house to yours
We decided to try making graham cracker (gingerbread) houses this year. They were so patient waiting for the green light to go for it. My children love posing like Justin Bieber. We frequently listen to the music provided through our cable company and they post pictures of the artist during the songs, and they copy … Continue reading Merry Christmas from our (gingerbread making) house to yours

I was so excited to meet Baby C this past week! She's adorable and her parents are so in love. Welcome to the world little girl!

Last week, on the day she makes cookies for local stores, we met at her bakery and made … Continue reading Sweet Cream Bakery – Damascus small business
Owen – Week 1
Owen is the youngest munchkin of our family friends. A couple weeks ago he was out playing and had a freak accident that caused an incredible amount of brain trauma. He was rushed to the hospital with swelling and bleeding on the brain. He had several surgeries, and at at least one point, his parents … Continue reading Owen – Week 1
