Waiting for Halley

I have been working so much that I haven't had time to post all my recent shoots! Last week I had 5 shoots alone! Things will begin to slow down as the summer rush dies down. Which is good AND bad I suppose.

Anyhow, I am really excited to begin posting these last shoots. This first set are from a maternity session with Amber and Mike. We chose the waterfront because it has such a nice mix of urban and nature. It whispers Portland summer with the river running across the cityscape.
Amber and Mike didn't realize that this would be their last evening without their new little girl, Halley (pronounced Hal- ee). Halley actually arrived the VERY next day if you can believe it!

Amber and Mike were the perfect picture of happy, expectant parents.

bright lights
like strobes filter
past the springs

setting fire to my sillouette
