Sam came home from school today, went straight to the playroom, and came out wearing this most “Awesome Outfit” <—— his words. I agree, this outfit is almost as awesome as he is.

Sam and the Awesome Outfit

I met Sonja several years ago, while she was the co-owner of Spielwerk Toys in the Sellwood neighborhood. (the Sellwood location is now a thing of the past, but the Williams St store is GORGEOUS! Stop in often!) Sonja is as lovely as they come, and we have had many insightful, supportive conversations over the […]

Sundays #2

January is always a time of organizing and purging and planning and reviewing. This year while reviewing my personal photos from 2012, I was struck by how few I had taken with my “big” camera. The iphone has become my go-to image maker when I’m hanging out with my kiddos. Its just so unobtrusive and […]

gingerbread house making, warm chocolate, stories and quilts in NE Portland! Oh MY!

I’ve decided to work backwards-ish. I imagine I’ll stray from that, cuz that’s what I do, but its where I’m going to start! This was my last session of 2012. It was mighty chilly and a little dark, but these guys lit it up with their willingness to trust in me to capture their beautiful […]

Last of the year

I’ve really only been in the snow a small handful of times in my life, and every time I find myself in a winter wonderland of snow it always takes my breath away. I’m a bit of a snow wimp – the driving scares me, I’m a total klutz trying to move my body in […]
