It’s not often that I get to shoot another photographer and her sweet family. But that’s exactly what this session was at Willamette Mission State Park! Erica’s little girls just absolutely MELTED my heart! We also had some amazing glow from the sun and the very start of some changing fall leaves. This session was amazing!

How We Met

Erica got a hold of me through social media for her family session! She is another fellow KJ photographer so we have similar styles, that light and airy natural look. For those of you who don’t know who KJ is, her name is Katelyn James and she’s one of the top wedding photographers/educators in the industry! She’s amazing and I am so blessed to have made so many friendships and connections with other photographers through her education group! I was also super excited to hear that Erica and her family only live about an hour away from me. It’s so amazing to think such great friendships and connections can be so close. One of the many things I’m so grateful to KJ for!

Erica is expecting her third little one and you can see the joy radiating in all their faces. This baby is so loved already! I could not get over how sweet and cute her little girls were together. I kept finding myself awwwing at them practically the entire time. Everything about this session at Willamette Mission State Park was simply perfect. This family, their outfits, the location and light. Perfection!
