The Edinger’s are a special family. Just ask anyone who knows them. I knew OF Natasha for years. We worked out at the same gym and had friends in the same circle, but we had never really met or chatted or run together. And then I heard that Natasha and her husband Scott were packing up their young family and moving […]
The Haikin family is delightful. I enjoyed every minute of our photo session at Champoeg State Park. Mr. and Mrs. Haikin had an earthy outdoor wedding and as a result have never really had professional photos taken. They just celebrated their 36th wedding anniversary. I’d say they were overdue… 36 years of daily choosing each other. 36 years of raising their children […]
Ann Menke, corporate flight attendant to some of the world’s wealthiest people, takes stories from her 25+ years of experience and weaves them into a ficitonal tale of wealth, adventure, romance, and suspense in her much anticipated debut novel Exposure to a Billionaire. This weekend Ann signed copies of her book at an invitation-only private party in Sunriver, Oregon, in […]
Tori is a vivacious, creative and beautiful 7th grader. Last year I got to photograph her older brother. This time it was Tori’s turn, save a couple images we shot with her big brother. Isn’t she lovely? Thank you Tori for being such a delight to spend an evening with. #spring #portraits #teens
We shot the Waltz family photo session at the always beautiful Jenkins Estate. It was fun for me to meet them as we share a few mutual friends. Their son was a typical toddler – very unsure about the Scary Lady with the Camera and appreciative of his snacks and sippy cup. Isn’t he sweet? Thank you Waltz family for […]
Abigail and Schuyler got married in the middle of one of Oregon’s rainiest winters/early spring on records. We had Back Up Plans to our back up plans to accommodate for predicted heavy rain at their mostly outdoor, but covered wedding. It poured on the way to the wedding venue – sheets and sheets of rain that created giant puddles on the streets and […]
The Jacobs family choose a beautiful location and super cute outfits for their family photo session. We lucked out with some late evening sunshine in that beautiful field full of flowers and pretty trees. Happy family. Happy spring. Thanks Jacobs family for a fun evening. #springisintheair #fieldofflowers #familyportraits #jacobsfamily
Lindsay and I were on the same Hood to Coast team and have kept in touch over the years. I had the blessing of spending the afternoon with Lindsay, her husband, her parents, and both her grandmas. The love, friendship, and bond they all share is unique and enviable. Clearly this group knows how to love fiercely and deeply. My […]
When your family doesn’t all live locally, it’s a special day to get a photo with all the grandkids together at once. Unfortunately the reason for their gathering was a death in the family. So sorry for your loss Seaman family. May God bring comfort to you as you grieve and may these pictures remind you of the obvious love […]
My beautiful friend Robin found out she had breast cancer just before her 50th birthday. Some birthday present…She has faced cancer with a sense of humor, joy, and authenticity that somehow takes the edge off how awful it really is to have cancer.She has been real about her suffering. The anxious thoughts. The weakness. The side affects from the chemo. […]
