{Emily} 2 year old- Bend, Oregon

I had the special opportunity to capture Emily for her 1 AND 2 year old pictures. She came to me, on a very blistery cold day in Bend, Oregon and was full of exploration. We fed cows, searched for bunnies, and eventually ended up indoors and played with ducks. Happy 2nd Birthday Emily!

Bend, Oregon produces some of the cutest kids I know! On a recent trip to my hometown, I had the opportunity to spend some quality time with a cute little 4 year old named Kevin. This little squirt is the most mature little 4 year old I know! He has the most AMAZING "magic manners" I have heard, he can tell you all about his rock collection, AND, pretty soon, he is going to make a great big brother!





And did I mention he has the most envied eye lashes I have EVER seen?  Give me some eye lash lovin' Kevin!

I was so grateful for the opportunity to photograph the Clawson Family while in Bend, Oregon. They weathered the frigid temps Bend had to offer like champs! I loved how all three children interacted with each other, I loved how Alisha and Josh joked with each other, and the little knock knock jokes they made up on the drive to my parents acreage they shared to create giggles between the children.

Thank you Alisha for asking me to take your families photograph. As always, it was way too much fun!





















Love this little Emily girl! 








So, this giggle was the product of a mammogram story.  Whenever in doubt, I can always think of a sick or silly story stemming from a work experience which seems to always produce a giggle or two!





Can you tell how much these two love their little sister?  She is one lucky girl!

Emily is ONE lucky girl! She has an amazing family, two older siblings who think she is the most fantastic thing in the world next to string cheese, AND she is having a ONEderful first birthday party in HER HONOR! Her mother is throwing her a "Winter ONEderland" themed party complete with winter decor and activities!

Happy Birthday to one SWEET, cute girl!
