"You don't really understand human nature unless you know why a child on a merry-go-round will wave at his parents every time around - and why his parents will always wave back." ~ William Tammeus

Hannah and her lovely family

It's been so much fun and such an honor to photograph Hannah of Worlds Apart Photography, and her lovely family!

Good looks and beautiful fall colors :: Elena Wilken :: Portland OR Family Photographer

Photographing babies and young kids it's what's close to my heart, but it is sure nice to have subjects in front of the camera that do what you tell them to and don't try to outrun you :) 

It was a beautiful afternoon and our 'traditional style' shoot was a really, really fun shoot. 
I know you guys loved your sneak peek on Facebook. Here are a few more for your enjoyment ;) You are definitely a great looking family. It was really hard to narrow down the shots I was going to post. 

So, see you next year, same time, same spot ;) By the way, that comment was a great compliment Mary :)

Such a beautiful day this past Saturday!
I wish and pray for more days like this. Sunny, dry days would be such a treat especially with all the scheduled and waiting to be scheduled sessions. 

I was thankful for the day, drank in the sunshine and enjoyed my time spent with Nathan and his parents.

He loves his trains! It was the cutest thing, when mom and bad brought along his train set, and his dad set it up for him. Nathan, you and your mom and dad have a special place in my heart. xoxo
