Meet the Specter Family: Dave, Sara, Naomi and Cupcake, the non-winery dog. They own Bells Up Winery in the beautiful foothills of Newberg. They are down to earth, fun, hard working, witty, and make incredible wine. My son works for Dave during the summer and on the occasional weekend when he doesn’t have water polo, swimming or golf. The Specter’s […]

The Williams Family chose a Simple Offering – my version of a mini-session. It was perfect for the family photos they wanted.

Enjoy your photos Williams Family. Tammy said, These are […]
I met the Monroe Family for their photo session at a pretty neighborhood park in Beaverton. Their son Abraham was about to celebrate his first birthday, so we took some one year portraits and some family portraits. Isn’t he cute? He even let me hold him while I was taking a few pictures of just his Mom and Dad. I […]
Two years ago the Allori’s hired me when I was just launching my business. It was such a joy to revisit family photos for them now that I have more experience and much better equipment. The Allori’s have style and they bring it to their sessions. Their kids are darling and so much fun to photograph. The greatest compliment a […]
I met Angela and Adam about a year and a half ago when we did a multi-generation family photo session. It was so fun to visit again with their family and take updated photos for them. A lot has changed too. Adam and Angela are engaged now so we did engagement photos, then family photos with their oh-so-darling and handsome son […]
Oh these Donaldson’s. How I adore them. I met Amber in the pre-school pickup line when my family was new to Oregon and miserably lonely. Her beautiful smile and hospitable personality were a life line to our family that was craving community. It’s been seven years. In that time our kids have grown from pre-school to middle school. Amber and I have grown too. […]
Adi is a creative, free spirit. She loves being outdoors in the forest or at the beach. She also loves the fashion industry and hopes to pursue a degree in that area when she graduates. We combined all her passions in her senior session by taking the curvy, back road through the forest to Pacific City. The forest was moody […]
Hannah has a classic, timeless beauty that radiates from her. She grew up in McMinnville and has strong connections to Linfield College where her Grandpa played an influential role in the football program. The snack shack is named after him and he coined the phrase “Win My Day.” Her Grandpa was a well loved man who passed away a little over […]
The Lindell family invited me and my daughter Alli (who is an Expert with Small Children) out to their sanctuary in the country to photograph them where they live. The setting was incredible and we had a warm, summer evening with beautiful fading light to work with. It was impossible not to fall in love with Lucy and Karson, their […]
