My family and I are going out of town for a week, so I will not be posting until then. It should be a nice break for us, and I expect to come back with lots to share. Until then, have a great week everyone!

August 26, 2010blueberry fever | Esther Pederson Photography
August 22, 2010I haven’t posted much lately because we have apparently contracted the blueberry fever. Symptoms include blue fingers and tongue, visions of blueberries upon closing our eyes, and coming home with gallons of berries that don’t even fit in our freezer. Hmm….sounds like heaven on earth to me! We have had a phenomenal blueberry year and it is so fun to be outdoors finding those amazing patches and just getting lost in them. Even our non-fruit loving dog has taken to the picking and eating of the berries. Here are some photos of our last adventure in the blueberry fields. Enjoy!

August 19, 2010It seemed like just yesterday that I was doing maternity photos for my friend and neighbor Debbie. Now, her son is already one! It has been fun watching him grow this past year. Happy Birthday Mr. Granite! Thanks for a wonderful party. Your mom is the best cook!

goodbye friend | Esther Pederson Photography
August 3, 2010My good friend Darcy moved away the other day. I was really sad to see her leave, but I also have hopes for a brighter future for her and her beautiful daughter. So, before they left, we decided to do a little photo shoot around Nome. I photographed them back when little Allyson was just 6 or 7 months old, so it was fun to see how she had changed since then. She can walk, and pick berries, and smell flowers. So cute! She’s a busy little bee, and Darcy you are going to have your hands full the next few years! But, I also know that raising a little girl is so much fun, especially when they want to bake with you, or want you to fix their hair, or just snuggle. I hope you like the photos so far Darcy! I’m going to miss you. Make sure you reserve a nice guest spot (and a glass of wine) in your new house for us. We’ll surely come visit you soon, as this goodbye isn’t forever. xo. 
the Jessup family | Esther Pederson Photography
July 30, 2010When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses. ~Joyce Brothers
The Jessup’s were a fun family to photograph. They are all so photogenic. Just look at mom and dad! Both lovely people who make amazingly gorgeous kids! Couple that with beautiful surroundings and a day that started out gray but ended in sunshine. Who could ask for anything more? Ahhh, magical! Of course, it was also packed full of energy, water fun, stick swords, sand, tundra flowers and oh, did I mention puppies? Yeah, it couldn’t have gotten any better. I got to meet Judith’s new puppy Trooper, who at 8 weeks old is a ball of fluff. What a cutie. Thanks Jessups for a great night. I hope you enjoy this sneak peak.

our weekend | Esther Pederson Photography
July 13, 2010We had a fun weekend full of water, sun, and lots of yummy food. What else can I say, I love Alaska and the beauty around me, and I also love my family. Put the two together, and I am in heaven on earth! Have a great week everyone! It’s going to be a busy one for me. 
for their daddy | Esther Pederson Photography
July 3, 2010I wanted something nice to give to Larry as a Father’s Day gift, so we took the kids out the other week and had a little shoot. My goal was to get one nice shot to have made into a canvas for his office. I think I achieved my goal. I’m a happy mama, and I know Larry was happy as well to get his gift. Have a wonderful and safe 4th of July weekend everyone. See you next week!
