In May I had the privilege of working with Bryan Rupp as a second shooter at Stefania and Ryan’s wedding. I learned so much from watching Bryan work and am excited to share some of the images I took. Stefania and Ryan are from Detroit and have large families. They love food and wine so they opted for a planned elopement […]
Taeler warned me that she was awkward in front of the camera but I think she was lying. She was a total natural and so beautiful! We had a blast walking around downtown Newberg and choosing random locations that spoke to us in the moment. Her Mom – a friend of mine from high school – joined us for an evening filled […]
I met Jody online. That’s right. We met on the internet. It was instant friendship at the first email exchange. Jody is wicked smart, successful, hilarious, light hearted, athletic, encouraging, beautiful and so much fun. Every time we hang out, I leave our time together with a heart overflowing with gratitude for her friendship. Her fragrance of joy lingers for […]
I slept in Haley’s bed years before I met her in person. #awkward It’s not as bad as it sounds. Haley’s mom Lisa was our Hood to Coast driver the only year I’ve run that relay. She invited our entire van to camp out at their house the night before the race and we crashed all over their house. I […]
Sandra was one of my first friends when we moved to Newberg. Our now middle-school aged daughters were attending four-year-old pre-school together and we met in the pick up line. Sandra is steadfast and determined. She puts her mind to something and sees it through to completion. In the years we’ve been friends she has gone back to college and […]
Two years ago I was just getting my business off the ground and I got to photograph the Farmer family. Their handsome baby boy had the biggest blue eyes, just like his Mom and Dad. Last week I had the chance to meet up with the Farmer family again – this time to do a maternity photo session for Son […]
Season and I both work part-time for an event company that hosts running races. When she found out I was also a photographer, she called me to book a session. It gave me a chance to meet her darling family and capture her daughters’ sweet and fun personalities. We met early on a Saturday morning in downtown Newberg for their […]
The Laws family chose a spring photo shoot – a gamble in the fickle Oregon weather. We had to reschedule once and the second session time threatened more rain. Thankfully we managed to get their entire family session finished just as the rain started up again. We even had some sunshine. This was the first time the Laws family has ever […]
It gives me great joy when my clients ask me to come back and capture their family again. I get to see how their kiddos are growing and be a voice telling that family’s story for generations to come. It’s a privilege I don’t take lightly. The Varuska twins are so, so cute. I brought my daughter Alli along to assist me […]
Holley needed professional head shots for the website she’s building around her new business as a life coach. When we did her photo session she was days away from defending her dissertation. By the time I edited her photos, she had successfully passed the Oral Exam and all she has left to do is collect her diploma. Congratulations Dr. Clough! Holley […]
