Capturing real families {brookings and gold beach oregon family photographer}

It’s always an honor to be asked to capture your families memories.  Always.  I love what I do, and I love it even more when the client gets real with me, let’s me see real expressions, and how they all really interact with each other.  This family was hilarious!  We all laughed our heads off the whole time.  And we even had some passerby’s in a truck laughing with us, and of course causing some more hilarious fits of laughter at their comments yelled as they passed.  Can’t get any better than a funny family, who is also willing to tromp through some tall grass with you, avoid an ants next, and climb some fences.  All in all a great experience with the Gift family <3

Happy family standing together outdoors near weathered barn wood in Brookings, South Dakota. Young boy and girl having fun outdoors with rustic barn background. Happy siblings sitting on grass in a scenic rural setting with wooden barn background. Boy standing in grassy field with sunlight backdrop, captured by a family and wedding photographer. Teen girl smiling with braces, standing next to a rustic wooden post in a natural outdoor setting.

WELCOME

I’m a pretty simple gal, I love Jesus, my handsome hubby and my 4 not so tiny kiddos teenagers. I love the beach and feeling the sun on my shoulders and the wind in my hair. I love wild color, and crazy love. I love coffee and bacon and tacos. Tending my garden and chickens feed my soul. If you will let me in, I promise to capture a little part of your one wild and beautiful life, and all the things that make YOU happy.
