Tomlin
November 10th, 2007 by Dawn Tacker
Tomlin is an artist. A lover of cats. Her favorite doll has a wonky eye - Tomlin got her an eyepatch. She loves to take care of younger kids. She is the daughter of our friends from Portland, who came to visit recently. I used to think of them as Dave’s friends, as they all went to college together. But over the last few years especially, they have become my friends as well; and my life is the richer for it. Laura and Tony and Tomlin, we loved spending time with you and I was honored that you asked me to photograph your family. I’m glad we had such a perfect SoCal evening at the beach; sorry that dinner didn’t go quite as smoothly! Here are a few of my favorite images.






How fun..You really captured the joy in this family!Friends are priceless, especially the longer you have them!
[…] Are you making this day count? I ask because it’s when I ponder portraits of a young lady (because we cannot really call her a child) on the brink of teenager-hood, thinking of how long I have known her, that I am smacked in the face again with the simple cliche - time flies. Please welcome back to the blog Tomlin, age 12. I don’t think I’ll embarrass her too much by linking to these adorable portraits of Tomlin at age eight. I am tickled to report that she has stayed true to herself - and if I could wish one thing for her as she looks forward to entering her teen years and beyond, it would be that she continue to do so. We created these portraits of Tomlin and her family in the absolutely sublime Laurelhurst Park in Portland, Oregon. Thank you Laura, Tony, and Tomlin for the pleasure! […]
