We are delighted to welcome Evelynne Gomes Greenberg of Evelynne Gomes Greenberg Photography as the featured partner for our September Community Saturday.

Evelynne is an Oregon family photographer whose warm, playful approach focuses on love, connection, and the genuine moments families share.

Rather than asking children to sit still and smile for the camera, Evelynne creates a relaxed experience where children can be themselves. Her approach feels beautifully aligned with the child-led, relationship-centered environment at Little Nestlings.

During Story Stones and Family Wishes, Evelynne will offer an optional complimentary family portrait opportunity. Each participating family may receive one family portrait delivered digitally, available on a first-come, first-served basis as time allows.

Children can create their own story stones while families enjoy a relaxed morning of creativity, storytelling, and connection.

Our first week of school is in the books! 💛 As everyone settles into new friendships, new teachers, and new routines, we’ve already witnessed so many magical moments of teamwork, joy, connection, and discovery.

Children’s Atelier Camp is a wrap!
