mehr family {portland lifestyle maternity + newborn photography}

always a dream to photograph my dear friends, the gorgeous Mehr family!

sharing my work has been on the back burner for the last few years for many reasons, and i’m so glad to finally share some more of my favorites from their most recent maternity + newborn sessions. (also super thankful i finally got Narrative, it has made blogging so much easier, which means i actually have time to do it! yay!)

reach out if you’d like to take advantage of discounted packages when you schedule both maternity + newborn sessions with me. xo

“being rock, being gas, being mist, being Mind, being the particles traveling among the galaxies at the speed of light, you have come here, my beloved. and your blue eyes shine, so beautiful, so deep. you have taken the path traced for you from the non-beginning and the never-ending. you say that on your way here you have gone through many millions of births and deaths. innumerable times you have been transformed into firestorms in outer space. you have used your own body to measure the age of the mountains and rivers. you have manifested yourself as trees, grass, butterflies, single-celled beings, and as chrysanthemums. but the eyes with which you look at me this morning tell me that you have never died. your smile invites me into the game whose beginning no one knows, the game of hide-and-seek.” - Thich Nhat Hanh
