A Sunset Family Session at Riley Ranch in Bend, Oregon
Jessica and Ryan first contacted me when they were expecting their son Kal. The asked me to come document their new family in the first days of his life, and it was such a special session for me. Jessica has such a warmth to her (Ryan does too) and I felt immediately at ease in their home. When I asked them what it felt like to have Kal in their lives they said “he’s only 10 days old, but it feels like he has always been here”. Nearly 2 years later, Kal is thriving in the loving home his parents made for him. He is right where he belongs.
I met the Pedersen family at Riley Ranch in Bend, Oregon at sunset for their session - the light was so gentle, warm and lovely, it was perfect for this warm and gentle family! It was a real honor to document this time in their lives. The Pedersen family is moving to Montana in just a few weeks, and I know Bend will miss them. I only wish I had more time to spend with them!
This session shows all the things I want to show up in my work. The love is real- and it’s plain to see. I hope you can see it too.
Look at that sweet babe.
Kay, but is this not the cutest couple EVER?!
When your dad is tall, you can fly pretty high.
Kay, this out of focus shot was definitely on purpose. I swear.
Baby cheeks with toddler wiggles.
When in doubt, look for bugs.
This mama is seriously electric! Look at that smile!
Guys… the drool. I can’t.
Saw a plane. Obviously.
Kal fell down and mama was right there to give him love. Such a sweet moment.
Omg. They are so cute tho. UGH!
Getting a toddler to smile at the camera is winning. Every. Single. Time.
