Wood Family
I first met Annie on a trip I took to New Zealand when I was 18 years old. She was one of our Kiwi hosts as our group traveled through both islands. I really got to know Annie in the three weeks I was there. We connected again when she moved to the states a few years later. I have always admired her sweet ambiance and nature. I was thrilled when I got the opportunity to photographer her and Andrews wedding... And now that their little family has grown, I was overjoyed to photograph them again.
The occasion for the event was the recent birth of their son, Lucas. So happy for you guys! Congratulations!
We were schedule to photograph on Sunday morning... but, at Annie's sister Sarah's Wedding, I stole the family for a short bit to take advantage of the late afternoon light and beautiful field.






The next morning I headed to Andrew and Annie's home. They have a cute craftsman style house in Springfield. You should see the beautiful backyard! When you head to the back you feel like you're in a private abode in the middle of the city. Addison, their oldest daughter, gave me the tour as Annie was preparing Lucas for his first photo session. She is such a sweet bundle of joy. She danced for me and everything!












It was fun to hang out with you guys! Thanks again :)
Elliott Raymon Newborn Photos
Easter is becoming one of my favorite holidays with family! It is a tradition (2 years in a row now) for Adam's brother and family to head down to Eugene and spend time with my family. We get the best of both worlds with both families! With my brother having his first son about a week before, it was perfect timing to get some newborn photos.
My parents have a beautiful home on the McKenzie river, with wonderful large windows that let it amazing soft light. We used their bedroom to capture these.
Here are more photos from Easter with the family.




The below images were taken by my sister-in-law Suzannah Kruse. She took the photos, but I edited them. She is also a photographer in Salem Oregon. Check her out HERE!
And again Suzannah Kruse :) So fun to have photographs of me taking photos!
