I was SOO happy with the way these pictures turned out. They're the best we've ever had from a professional! It's all thanks to Tara, owner of Winsor Photography.

These photos were taken in Portland, Oregon at the Hoyt Arboretum on June 28, 2014, a few hours before Desha's commencement ceremony. Winsor Photography website Winsor Photography Facebook page Desha gave Tanner the birthday boy pin since this photo shoot was on his actual birthday. Our Uncle Lyman Great Uncle Lyman!! That's one good looking family!
