Spokane Custom Photographer: Jaidean Baker Photography specializing in newborn, children and family photography
I have been photographing sweet Aria since she was a newborn. It is so so fun to watch her grow – I couldn’t believe how much she was talking this time and her little playful personality is just too cute!
Just a quick sneak peek as I’m finishing up her gallery.

The last night in Bora Bora we walked around the resort and took some family photos.
Kids with Grandma Mary
Trevor with his mom and sister
bwaaahaaaaahaaaa! They crack me up!
And one last one while we waiting for the boat to take us to the airport. Good bye Bora Bora! Thank you for the fabulous time and great memories!

We had to take advantage of the gorgeous sunset and background in Bora Bora to get some silhouette shots (thank you to my sister-in-law for taking the family and ones of me and Trevor).
We have a similar wedding photo we were trying to recreate here.

We also did a couple excursions while on Bora Bora.
One excursion we did was go to the Lagoonarium (it got good reviews for a good family activity…it was kid friendly, but not sure I’d recommend it). We saw turtles, fed the sting-rays, snorkeled, fed the fish and swam with the sharks.
Trevor and I went on a bike ride around the island of Bora Bora with his sister and her husband. Is is only 18 miles…and I say only very sarcastically. I thought we were either renting scooters or going on an electric bike. Only when we got over there we found out neither were available, so we decided pedal bikes would be a good alternative. Unless you are a spin instructor (like my sister-in-law) or maybe if you have rode a bike (that wasn’t totally falling apart like the ones we rented were) in the last 15 years more than a block, it might be ok. I (kind of) laugh about it now, but it was miserable at the time (so HOT)…lol. I have very few pictures from this endeavor…and you can probably tell from my description why! It was a good way to get a good close look at the island though.
And then we also did a jet ski tour around the island which was a lot of fun!
And just a few other random pictures
