Say Hello… Messy Face and All

If you didn’t know, I have been flying back and forth between Los Angeles and Oregon all summer to shoot weddings in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I have the great pleasure of having a room waiting for me in the house I grew up in. My parents live on a beautiful property right outside of Corvallis, surrounded by farm fields and complete with 80+ backyard blueberry bushes to graze over. It is the perfect Yin to my busy Los Angeles Yang. I also attribute a lot of my sunny, free spirited photographic style to this special place. I flew in last Friday to shoot Lisa and Steve’s wedding at the Inn at Diamond Woods (Diamond Woods Golf Course, Monroe Oregon) and I’ll be here through August 4th shooting more weddings and portraits!

But on to today’s excitement! This afternoon I was having a picnic in the back yard with my absolute favorite nephew in the whole world, Mr. Jack Danger, when I noticed the UPS truck drive down our little street. I ran out front and sure enough, my new prime lens had arrived! Busy wedding filled summers, mean an excuse for me to continue bulking up with only the finest equipment out there to give my clients only the highest quality. I cut open the medium sized brown box to reveal the super awesome Canon 35mm 1.4L, meanwhile Jack had already moved on to bigger and better things… aka the trampoline. Here’s some of the first shots with this wide eyed beauty (the lens I mean, but the little guy too). Can’t wait to take it out on the field!

ps. Jack actually took the one of me! Pretty good for a 2 1/2 year old
pss. This first one is Jack landing a belly flop, also pretty good for a 2 1/2 year old?

This was such a fun and beautiful family session with the C family. It’s one that has been waiting in the wing a bit to enter the blog, as we did it right before I left Oregon for the winter in California. I’ll just say, it may look beautiful and sunny but this day was COLD! Both the kids and adults were amazing sports through it, despite some red and runny noses I did love this family, they are such a beautiful family, and so fun to be around. Thanks guys!

The Turners are so sweet! Dennette was so patient with scheduling for this shoot. She really wanted an outdoors shoot and we kept getting rained out. No one wants to take a precious 3 month old baby girl into the rain! And isn’t she just beautiful? And the little three year old rugrat… he was just too funny for me. So anyway, we finally got our absolutely gorgeous winter day, and this equally gorgeous family pulled it off like it was spring! Hope you guys enjoy, and I can’t wait to shoot again with you guys next year!

Happy Birthday Adah’Jane

laurenhurt — Fri, 22 May 2009 20:38:03 +0000

some of you wonderful woman in my life are asking about how Caylan’s labor went yesterday. After a couple weeks of my own nervous anticipation, baby Adah’jane graced us with her presence yesterday afternoon. Everything about it was perfect, Caylan is such a strong and amazing woman. She blew me away. She labored in a beautiful green grove for a while before going up to her room to deliver Adah. Everything about it was beautiful and I am refreshed with the understanding of how miraculous life is.

Now we are taking off for the weekend to a music festival in Washington. Hope you all have a wonderful memorial day weekend!
