Salem, Oregon Photographer: Families | W Family

in ,

I had so much fun working with this family!  1.)  Their outfits together were totally Pinterest-worthy  (uhhh, it is a challenge to figure out outfits for 10 people that coordinate- but aren't too matchy-matchy)  2.)  Mom & Dad have been married for over 20 years, and are still so in love. It was beautiful to witness!  3.) There were ALOT of laughs in our hour together!

I'm back with more from the Tulip Farm!  We had such a fun time in the sunshine that day.  Have you been out there yet?  It's in Woodburn, just a quick 30ish minute drive from Salem.  I'm already planning another trip out there before the festival is over : )

A was loving being able to run up and down the tulip rows!  I can hardly stand that sweet little face!  

The girls & their gorgeous mama!

Sweet little O <3

Loving the huuuuuge slide.  I may or may not have had a heart attack.

My little mud man ;)

Hope everyone has a fab weekend!  I'm getting ready for my blossom sessions tomorrow : )  It's going to be a beautiful day for them! XO

YOU GUYS.  The tulips at the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm are in bloom, and they are just breathtaking!  Since we are having the most beautiful sunshine and warm weather this week, we decided to take a trip there with our friends.  The kids all had a blast playing on the toys, and walking.. ahem.. (running;)) through the field! I was able to get a few shots of them, and just had to share one of my faves I got of my kids.  You might notice my son is covered in mud.  It's because he is two, and his nickname is "honey badger." I didn't edit any of it out, because its HIM, and I love his crazy, messy, toddler self! We all got a good laugh when he literally destroyed his outfit 5 minutes into being there. HAHA!  Stay tuned for more photos from our trip to the farm!  

The tulip fest is open until May.1st this year, make sure to go check it out! <3

PSSSSSSST... Scroll down for special discount on these darling bows!*

HOW CUTE are these girls!?  I recently fell in love with Little Poppy Co. bows, and after receiving a one month subscription from them, I knew I had to feature these bows in a session!  So, I found these gorgeous sisters, and their Mama was gracious enough to let me use them as my models :) 

Little Poppy Co. (www.littlepoppyco.com) is a fun and affordable way to get stylish hair accessories for the little lady in your life.  After signing up, you get their three featured bows (you choose- headband OR clip) delivered straight to your door each month.  I picked the headbands- they are made with a soft material so they are incredibly gentle on little noggins, and super comfortable.  For my daughter, I actually use them around her ponytail, too!  

So, there's your dose of cuteness for today! 

*P.S:  For 30% off your first month subscription with Little Poppy Co, use code: SHELBYPHOTO at checkout.  Enjoy! <3
