Blog my sessions - time to show off the art and family that inspire it.

This blog is for Stella Maris Photography's current Oregon and SW Washington Based, small business, lifestyle family and birth sessions. I blog about my client's sessions and daily life interests such as Oregon Family, Law Enforcement and First Responders, Healthy Lifestyle, Crossfit, raising a toddler, home life, balance between work and family, clothing and styles, Oregon outdoors and fun adventures within Portland Oregon and the Pacific Northwest. I love finding new spots within Oregon and SW Washington to have sessions for my clients. We have so many farms for Washington County Family Photography and Newborn Oregon and SW Washington Photography. Portland Oregon Maternity Sessions can also be held in so many areas within Oregon and SW Washington.

A few years ago I was first introduced to the lovely powers of doTERRA essential oils. I don't talk much about it here on my photography blog but we heavily use these amazing EOs in our home daily! My amazing leader Victoria enrolled me a few years ago and slowly but surely I started sharing when I saw what a difference these made. The great thing about EO is that when you start it can be overwhelming, but behind the scenes there is a LARGE community that supports learning and growing. We all have different daily walks and careers outside of oil and it has been my honor to work with Korina (Celebrating Life) with her Birth Doula work and my Birth Photography.

Last spring Korina reached out to me and asked if I was available to document the first Celebrating Life Oil Tribe Picnic that she and her hubby were hosting. I was honored to spend the day meeting team members and other EO lovers who I would not normally hang out with.

The afternoon was filled with lots of laughter, music, dancing, food, prizes, face painting and fire juggling - and coffee!
