Nate is a senior at Newberg High School. He didn’t want a big, long senior session, but he did want some cool senior portraits. The Simple Offering was perfect for him. We did a quick 30 minute photo session. He had enough time to change once and still use several different backgrounds. His five images capture who he is and tell his […]
Paula and I have been acquaintances for year and close friends for almost two years. It sounds silly on paper. Only two years? Cause it feels like a lifetime. In those two years we have worked together. Played together. Run together. Hiked together. Worked through disagreements together. Shared our joys and sorrows with each other. Cried together. Prayed together. Celebrated together. In two […]
I met Carrie at the gym when we first moved to Newberg. You know when you’re “new” somewhere it feels like EVERYONE knows each other except you? I felt that way at the gym, but Carrie and her friend Michele said “Hi” to me. They smiled. Made conversation. They helped me not feel like such a newbie. That was years ago. […]
Another year… another photo session with the Nanson’s. It’s crazy to me to see how much their girls have grown and changed in the four years that I’ve been taking their family photos. Aren’t they adorable? We chose Bells Up Winery as the location for their family photo session. Sara and Dave, the owners of Bells Up, are clients of mine […]
Kaleigh is a delightful and fun senior (and volleyball player) at McMinnville High School. We had a bright, sunshiny morning for her senior session. We travelled to three different local vineyards to complete her senior photo session and had a ton of fun along the way. May God bless you in your senior year and beyond Kaleigh. #seniorportraits #tellyourstory #mcminnvillehighschool […]
The Travis Family won their photo session at a fundraiser for Visible Grace, a non profit organization whose mission is to “help children break the chains of poverty by caring for them physically, mentally and spiritually. We do this by providing education and a safe, loving home for them. We have a wonderful staff of people who care for the kids and […]
I got to photograph the Miller twins as newborns. Look how much they’ve grown? Happy birthday sweet babies. You are so much fun and way too cute. Thank you Nicole and Ron for choosing me to help you document your family as your children grow. Congrats on making it through the first year with twins too. That is no easy […]
The Lindell’s are such a great family. Kendra is warm and hospitable; Nate is quiet and attentive. And look at those darling twins! It has been my privilege to be invited out to their home in the country the past two years to photograph their family. Thank you for another fun morning. I’m already looking forward to next year. #family #familyportraits #farmlife […]
The Guidry’s are the kind of people everyone needs in their life. Authentic. Fun. Compassionate. Real. They open their arms and their home to anyone and are just so fun to be around. They have become some of our best friends over the past year and a half. We share meals. Go to our kids’ sporting events. Drop in unannounced. Pray for […]
I first photographed the Guidry family just before their twin sons went off to bootcamp in the Navy. Fast forward two years and I got to take their family photos again when the twins were home from their first deployment. What started as a Guidry Family photo session morphed into an extended family photo session with Cyndi and family, her […]
