Chris + Tina's portrait session

I (Maggie) went to school at Oregon State University (GO BEAVS!) and graduated with Tina a couple years back. Tina moved with Chris to Texas so we hadn't seen eachother in a long time. She took us up on our Christmas portrait special while they were in town for the holidays, and we were glad she did! We walked around the Pearl, went out for coffee and took a couple shots with the Christmas lights after the sun went down. A favorite moment for us was when we found a shopping cart and Tina agreed to hop in.

our little Sophie

Josh went on a walk with Sophie and she posed it up for the camera. Ain't she the cutest?

Jeff + Emily's wedding

Emily and Jeff were married just after Christmas in Lake Oswego. We had some treacherous winter weather just days before their wedding, but thankfully it cleared up just in time for the celebration. The snow even created some great backgrounds that we never see here in Portland. Emily and Jeff were so sweet together all day long. Right after they saw each other for the first time during the ceremony, they continued to glance back and forth at one another and smile. It's witnessing those little things that just make our job so fun. It was a pleasure to work with these two!
