I first photographed the Guidry family just before their twin sons went off to bootcamp in the Navy. Fast forward two years and I got to take their family photos again when the twins were home from their first deployment. What started as a Guidry Family photo session morphed into an extended family photo session with Cyndi and family, her […]

Kayla is quiet and lovely with a beautiful smile and gorgeous eyes. She’s a talented vocalist too. She chose her grandparent’s farm as the location for her senior session. Packed with childhood memories for her and her mom, it was the perfect place to capture Kayla in this transitional point in her life. Thank you Kayla for sharing the family […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]

His grownup children are also cute and well behaved. He should be proud.Happy birthday Bruce. Enjoy your photos.
I met Tara and her daughter Taylor through the kids program at our church. They served regularly in my daughter’s Sunday school class. They chose to love her, even when she was naughty, and it endeared them to me forever. Taylor now lives in Asia so it was pretty special to get the Tuepker’s together for some family photos when […]
I met Lisel at the gym. You can’t help but like her. Then we met her husband Todd at the Mabel Rush Elementary School carnival. We ate cold hot dogs together and discovered a joint love for the Chicago Cubs. And they have adorable, handsome, fun boys. What’s not to love?It was such a treat to get their family in […]
