Olive 2 Years {Portland, Vancouver, Kalama, Longview Photographer}

I have such an amazing family. I won't say 'the most amazing' because I know you have an amazing family too, but the people who I have gained when I married are pretty awesome. One of my cousins has such beautiful children and although they live an hour away, they always let me photograph their children. Like, I'm talking, they have brought me both their kids since they were just days old. That is a lot of faith for them to put in me because I know traveling with young children is anything but easy. I seriously feel honored and blessed when I'm chosen to be a photographer for families as their children grow and it just makes me feel extra special when these families choose to drive past a boat-load of other talented photographers to have ME photograph these precious kiddos. Anyway, my cousin has made the trip to see me SO many times and I enjoy the time with her family very much. I love her happy presence, her laid back but firm parenting style and the fact that she shows up saying 'I did my makeup because I knew you were going to force me into a few shots today' :) (she knows me so well). She really is a wonderful friend whom I love dearly. And bonus: her kids are to-die-for-cute.

So here is her darling daughter. Little Miss Olive who steals my heart and my love :)
