Mia, Kylie, Maddie and Laney


Mia, Kylie, Maddie and Laney all played Division III college basketball at George Fox University and as of May 4th are officially college graduates!  I met them through Foster Friends, a program hosted by Friendsview Retirement Community, that partners with Fox Women’s Basketball to provide friendship and support to the players.  It was a bit of an accident connecting me […]

Ruby


Ruby is a Class of 2026 senior at Lincoln High School.  We originally had scheduled her photos for the middle of fall, but had to reschedule twice and ended up deciding to wait for the spring vs. shoot in the cold winter.  It was a good call because Oregon showed off the morning of her session.  Soft golden light that […]

Peyton’s Last Session (for a while)


The first time I photographed Peyton she was in elementary school, it was raining, but we shot under cover anyway because she had a dance schedule to work around.  That was the start of a fun friendship… meeting up once a year for sister photos, sometimes family photos, and now this year… senior photos.  Her summer session was about her […]

Year 3


Year 3 with the Hamzah family and their kids just keep getting cuter, more active, and fun.  Photographing toddlers often means pivoting to their bandwidth in that moment.  We grabbed a quick posed family photo and then Lila was off and running.  I chased her around the park, which she thought was hilarious, and managed to get some darling action […]

Tristan


Tristan is a Class of 2026 senior at Jesuit.  He plans to attend Gonzaga University and play Division I collegiate tennis… such a massive accomplishment.  Well done T!  I’ve know Tristan and his family since he was a baby and while our worlds don’t collide that often, we’ve kept up over the years.  I truly can not believe he is […]

Sara Kate


Sara Kate is a Class of 2026 senior.  I met Sara Kate through Newberg lacrosse when she and her family were new to the area.  It was fun to watch her learn the sport and get to know her and her family.  She plans to attend George Fox University in the fall and play collegiate lacrosse there.  Sara Kate opted […]

Naomi


Naomi is a Class of 2026 senior.  I’ve been photographing her and her family since she was 5 years old… watching her grow from year to year and having clients morph into dear friends.  I truly can’t believe she’s graduating and stepping into this next season in life.  Don’t blink friends because time truly flies.  Naomi is a talented aerialist […]

Promposal: Tannar + Naomi


Naomi and Tannar have been dating for almost a year and they are such a cute couple.  They just click when they’re together.  He pulled off the cutest, most thoughtful, elaborate promposal at the end of Naomi’s senior portrait sessions.  Both of their moms were deeply involved in the planning and I was filled in on the scheme a few […]

Chloe


Chloe is a Class of 2026 senior who chose a late winter/early spring portrait session that combined her love of nature with her urban style. I left Newberg in bright sunshine, drove through a spring downpour on my way to Portland, and watched the storm roll out right before her scheduled session time.  As we were finishing photographing Chloe in […]
