My name is Angela and I'm the artist behind the images of Angela Smith Photography. I'm a wife, mother of two young children, and lover of all things photography.

I am located in Sherwood, Oregon and service the greater Portland Metro area. While I enjoy photographing subjects of all kinds, I have found that my passion lies in capturing life's most treasured moments - the miracle of a newborn, the confidence of a high school senior, a young couple in love, and a bride's tears of joy on her wedding day.

I want to thank you for visiting my blog. Please kick your feet up, grab a cup of coffee, and share my passion with me!

5 month old {B}

I love my job. I get to meet the most wonderful people and often times, I get to watch their babies grow, as I have with little {B}. The fist time I met this family was when little {B} was still in his mommy's tummy, then again days after he was born. I had the opportunity to photograph this family again this past weekend and little {B} is now 5 months old.

A couple favorites from out most recent session:

My first senior of 2009!

Meet Amanda. I knew from my correspondence with her mom that this was going to be a fun session. Amanda is her first to go off to college and while I was asking questions in preparation for the session, mom said she just wanted it to be a great experience for her daughter. I loved that! Amanda was up for anything, and definitely a trooper - she climbed a rock wall to sit in the window of a fantastic old building in the Pearl District.

{Expectant Mother}

You might recognize Nataly & Jason. I've had the pleasure of photographing them on more then one occasion. The first time was when she was expecting sweet Joelle, now two years old, and again after Joelle's birth. I had a third opportunity to photograph little Joelle at the busy age of 18 months.

Nataly & Jason are now expecting child number two - another little girl. Our first session had to be rescheduled because my two year old decided to down with croup. Nataly was anxious to reschedule, and understandably so, considering her body is sending her signs that her baby girl is coming soon. Fortunately, we were able to do her session and had a great time. Nataly is such a beauty - I always look forward to the opportunity to photograph her and her beautiful family.
