I love getting to photograph families year after year and watch the kids grow up. I was so excited to get to photograph my buddy Will again. In the Beasley’s family photos last year he was barely walking. This year he was running (and riding his bike!) all over the place. Will brought along mom, dad, grandma, grandpa and an aunt to his photo session this year. Enjoy! 
Abby | West Albany Highschool Senior Photos
Miss Abby just radiated joy and beauty! Even now I can’t help but grin when I look at her photos- her smile is contagious! We found some great fall color for the start of her session and then moved downtown to achieve an urban look. Abby is a very accomplished trombone player and tap dancer and I got to witness some awesome street tap dancing during her session. I love the fun things I get to learn and experience with my seniors! 
The Mahr Family | Corvallis Oregon Family Photography
I loved this session with the Mahr family – I feel that these photos do a great job of showing my approach to sessions with kids. I love to capture the kids in their element, doing activities that they like to do. Sometimes that means playing little games with them or giving them fun things to do. Sometimes that means hiding behind a tree with a long lens and letting them do their thing while forgetting that I’m even there. Often times it takes the kids a little bit to warm up to the idea of getting their photos taken but by the end we’re always friends =) The Mahr family met me on a cold, foggy fall day. The kids were troopers despite the temperature and I felt like we got some great shots of them interacting with each other and having fun. Plus, does the fog look awesome? 
If you’re putting off family photos because you don’t want the stress of getting everyone to smile and look at the camera, give me a call. I promise we can make it stress free and even FUN for everyone. Set up your family photos for the new year today! danae@danaejonesphotography.com | 541-908-1064
