Fall Family Portraits

This Friday marks the first day of the Fall season! The leaves are beginning to turn colors and the kids are back in school. This is one of my favorite times of the year, because it means sweaters, hot chocolate, and fall festivals. Another thing that I look forward to is the chance to do family portrait shoots. The gorgeous fall weather is perfect for it.

An advantage of getting your portraits done this time of year, is that when it comes time for Christmas you’ll be set. I always send out a family picture with my cards, because its nice to show relatives how you’re doing! Some of my family live on the other side of the country, and I don’t get to see them very often. Sending a picture is like I’m there with them for the holidays, even if its only a picture.

If you’d like to schedule a time to do your own family portraits, now’s the time!

  • I shoot at the location of your choice, which includes anything from your backyard to a local park.
  • For a one hour photo shoot you get 15-20 professionally edited images.
  • As a bonus, I’m offering a 25% discount off of my normal rates.
Call me at 503.580.0296 or email holly@hollyamlin.com to set up a time! I look forward to helping you make fun family memories this fall!

Sibling Pictures: Sabrina and Reide

Sabrina and Reide are friends of mine, and wanted to have sibling pictures done while they were both still in junior high. We took advantage of  a sunflower field that was in full bloom for our first location. Our second location was a bit closer to home, literally, it was their backyard! There they have quite the animal family, and wanted to include them in the photo shoot. You’ll see the horses in some of the photos below, as well as some of my personal favorites from the shoot. I really enjoyed working with these two (as well as their mom, who had the patience to pose the horses for us!), and I hope that you enjoy their pictures as much as I do!

If you’d like to see more from the shoot, check out the whole set on my flickr.
