Newsom Family | Party of 7 | Portland Family Photography

We have been incredibly lucky with the beautiful weather we’ve been enjoying here in the Pacific NW these past several days. Although it has been cold…it’s been dry…and it doesn’t really get much better than that around this time of the year. Unfortunately, if you like to ski or snowboard…it’s not so great because it means no new snow in the mountains!

So, speaking of good weather, I had the opportunity to photograph another family photo shoot for the holidays. I have the privilege of knowing this family’s mom after becoming regulars at Bethany Athletic Club and looked forward to being able to meet her entire family and see her out of the creature comforts of gym clothing. After a little mix up on where we should meet and having some time to catch up with dad while we waited for the rest of the family, mom and kids showed up completely decked out and ready to go! If you ever have doubt on what to wear for a photo shoot…lemme know…I’ll send you their way!

As with any photo shoot, I try to incorporate something about the person…or in this case, the family, as part of the shoot. Behind every person/family, there’s a story….the title of this post is ‘Party of 7′ and they truly are ’7′. About 6 years ago, their baby sister passed away but remains an integral part of their family & they continually feel her influence in their lives. During this time of the year as families gather to celebrate the holidays, I feel honored to have had the privilege of photographing the Newsom’s and getting a small glimpse of the strong bond and love this family has for each other. Enjoy your sneak peek!

Emma Easley Darden - This is one of my favorite family sessions you’ve ever done, particularly for the photo tie in to capture their complete family. Great job, as usual!
