The Menke Family means so much to me and my family. They have embraced all six of us like we are their own flesh and blood, loving us, including us, and just enriching our lives. It was an honor to photograph Ann and Doug with their two lovely children and their families. Ann insisted that I bring my entire crew […]
The Williams Family chose a Simple Offering – my version of a mini-session. It was perfect for the family photos they wanted. We also took a couple of Jeremy and Tammy too since they just had a milestone anniversary. Congratulations!I can’t get over how giant those leaves were and how vibrant the color is. 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 […]
Branden is a farmer’s son. His parent’s farm is just outside the Carlton city limits and has been in their family for decades. Their land has open fields hemmed in by rolling foothills, a welcoming home with a big yard, and large wooded sections with grassy marshes where they duck hunt in the fall. It only made sense to do […]
One of the perks of my job is meeting new people. The Sutherland’s were a lot of fun. We did their photo session on their property on Chehalem Mountain. It was a foggy, fall morning – perfect for capturing the beauty of where they live. Their home has lush gardens and a big field bordered by trees. I had fun exploring the […]
I met Rachita and Kunal when they were expecting their son Aryan. We did their maternity session outside in the late winter/early spring and Rachita was such a trooper, walking through mud in her fancy red high heels so we could get the perfect shots. I brought Paige, my youngest daughter, as my assistant on that shoot, and we all just […]
The Wolf family photo sessions are such a treat for me. I love being outside and hope to one day move out of the city and onto a tiny farm. To get to visit them on their GIANT family farm that has been part of their heritage for decades and photograph them on the land they love? Well, that is […]
I first met Jason and Melissa when they were expecting Eleanor. Once Eleanor was born, we all fell in love. She is so darling – happy, engaging, curious and snuggly. Plus her big blue eyes just melt you. It was a lot of fun to do their family photo session at Champoeg State Park. We had a magical, foggy morning […]
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 […]
Becky and I have been friends for more than five years. It seems like the pre-school pickup line is the best place to meet and make new friends!It was such a blessing to get their family in front of my camera. I mean look how darling they are? Since the the leaves in the vineyard weren’t quite yellow yet, Becky […]
