The Specter’s are another one of my OG families. They took a chance on me when I was a newbie photographer, then hired me back in spite of being forced indoors by a winter storm for their first photo session. Over the years since that first eventful session, my talent, their grapes, their daughter, and our friendship has grown. I’m […]
The Nanson family hired me my first year out as a newbie photographer. They put their trust in me, and have continued to hire me each year to document how their girls are growing. By now we all have the photo session down to a routine: get in, get out, get on your way. I love seeing them each year, […]
Life with preschooler and toddlers is busy. I know I’m doing my job in a photo session with this age group when I start sweating and shedding layers. This family is so stinking cute. Their little man was on the go from the second they got him out of his car seat, and their sweet girl was all giggles and […]
I got to photograph this family when they were expecting their daughter. And then I got to come to their home to take newborn photos. Now their sweet munchkin is one and I was invited back for another photo session. Isn’t she sweet? They are such a great family and I’m so lucky to help document the growth in their […]
This is the third time I’ve had the privilege of photographing the Jacobs’ family, and I love how joy-filled and fun their photos are. We had a windy, but beautiful fall day to work with. Even better, Gran was in town and got to join in the photo taking fun. Thank you Jacobs family for trusting me to document these […]
Connor is a Class of 2021 senior at C.S. Lewis Academy. He plays and loves soccer, but academics are his priority. Connor excels in math and science and is considering a career in engineering. Connor’s senior session was fun because he brought his entire family, including his dog Daisy. We did a mini family portrait session to start our time […]
Our family has known the Kern’s in a loose capacity for the past twelve years. Every time our paths cross, I leave feeling blessed to know them and thankful for the the time to we spend together. It was fun to reconnect again this summer for some fellowship and family photos. Aren’t they adorable? Thank you Kern family for a […]
Parts of 2020 felt like time stood still so it surprised me when the Hall’s called me for their yearly photo session. It really doesn’t feel like it’s been a year since we did their last one. Champoeg State Park is their favorite destination and this year we had much more pleasant weather to work with. I have loved watching […]
I am humbled by the caliber of the influential families I have photographed this summer. Here’s another incredible family. The Edinger’s love well. Work hard. Serve their communities. Are raising talented, thoughtful, smart kids. They do it quietly, with focused passion and bring Light to a dark world. I’m blessed to know them. Thank you Edinger’s for all you do. […]
Nicole is as sweet as she is beautiful. Our paths don’t cross as often as I would like them to, but when they do the fellowship is sweet. It seemed even sweeter this time because of the social isolation brought on by COVID. Nicole went with a boho theme for her family photos. We melded beautiful dresses, lovely girls, […]
