The lovely Maya Schaumberg

I had the great pleasure of photographing the lovely Maya Schaumberg.

I have known Maya for many years now and she has always been a kind and loving spirit. I have always wanted to photograph Maya, and on Saturday I finally got the opportunity. We drove out to Sauvie Island early in the morning to shoot and let me just say, Maya is extremely easy to photograph as she is very photogenic and not to mention, being at Sauvie Island was definitely a plus as well!

I absolutely LOVE how this shoot turned out and I had a very difficult time picking out my favorites as all of them were amazing! I had to actually force myself to stop editing so she could pick her favorites! =) I hope you enjoy the images from this shoot, and keep a lookout for more posts!

Best,

An afternoon with Leah Marie Noack

I want to introduce my most recent photo subject whom I'm absolutely in love with, Leah Marie Noack.

Leah is currently a dancer for the Vancouver Volcanoes, and will soon be auditioning for the Blazer dancers in the next month or so. Make sure to wish her luck!

Leah is a very bright, talented young lady with high drive and a beautiful spirit about her. She has this contagious smile, striking blue eyes, and this essence about her that captures so beautifully on camera. It was definitely a struggle to end the afternoon with her!

Gratefully I will be working with Leah again this Friday at the Skamania Lodge and I am more than excited to spend the day at a beautiful location with a fun, energetic and gorgeous model!

I hope you enjoy the pictures from the shoot, and keep a lookout for another blog post from our shoot at the Skamania Lodge!

Best,

Kara

Brittany Ann Raz

I asked this lovely lady if she'd be willing to model for me, and I was very lucky to spend the evening with her on this photo shoot! Brittany was so bubbly and full of energy, she was definitely fun to Take pictures of! I had a very difficult time picking out all my favorite shots from our shoot! Hopefully I'll be able to work with her again in the future! =)

Dustin & Kathryn Johnson

I had the great honor of photographing two of my good friends, Dustin and Kathryn Johnson's maternity photos for their first child due on April 25, 2013!

I am posting this a bit late, so the little addition has already arrived! But before April 25, the sex of the baby was to be a surprise! And what a surprise it was when a little baby boy was brought into the world. Lowlan Keegan Johnson is the sweetest little boy with curious blue eyes, and greatly resembles his father. I visited Lowlan days after being born, and it's amazing to me how you can just sit and stare at a baby for hours. I definitely had a hard time handing him off to someone else to hold.

I congratulate Dustin and Kathryn on their perfect little boy, and am excited to watch him grow! =)
