Have you ever wrestled with the question: “What do I buy my parents for Christmas or their birthday?” How about a photo session. This lucky Nana received a family photo session, centered around her, as a gift from her kids. The original date of their photo session was horrid weather: dumping rain, wind and maybe 37 degrees. We rescheduled and […]
I’ve known Tony for roughly 7 years. He’s the assistant principal assigned to our family at the high school. Over the years of Mr. Buckner supervising our four kids, he has called me to have fun chats. Difficult chats. And everything in between. Tony knows how to hold your kids accountable to their actions while simultaneously challenging them to be […]
I photograph the Williams’ family every year. This year we added the boys’ grandma for a couple of photos and of course Rizzo, their big furry boy. When we scheduled this year’s shoot neither of us could believe a full year had already gone by. It truly feels like a handful of months ago we were shooting their 2020 family […]
It was SO fun to reconnect with Kamren after several years of not seeing her. When we used to see each other at the gym, our kids were little babies in the childcare. And now look at her beautiful, on their way to almost grown children. And she hasn’t aged a day in ten years. I want to know her […]
I know Kamren from years ago when we both worked out at the same gym. She moved just far enough out of town that we lost touch of each other so I was thrilled when she called to schedule family photos and… (wait for it)… maternity photos for the family she a gestational carrier for! Kamren is a mom of […]
The Banke Family is the coolest. The whole family gives off a super chill and laid back vibe. It was freezing the morning of their session and no one – including the baby – was phased by any of it. Alex and Hailey are awesome and helpful older siblings. Everett and Lucy are the cutest set of Littles ever. And […]
Jacob is a Class of 2022 senior at Newberg High School. He plays basketball and likes to hang out with his friends. Our original plan for Jacob’s photo session was to go out to Champoeg State Park so we could get some rustic/woods photos, but it was raining non-stop the entire week of Jacob’s photo session with the exception of […]
The Farmer’s were some of OG clients. One of their childhood friends took a chance on me and hired me at student pricing while I was building my portfolio and deciding if I was any good at portraits. They passed my name on to their friend group and several of them hired me. The best part of this – beside […]
We’ve been trying to find a dry patch of 15 minutes to photograph these cute sisters. The last three weeks of non-stop rain have been tricky for outdoor photography, but after rescheduling twice, we finally grabbed a morning where it was drizzling but not pouring and shot their session under cover. It was great to meet Allyssa and Peyton and […]
I met Ruth at the gym when our our Littles were actually little. She is just delightful and we have many treasured memories of time spent running together. As our kids grew up, life took us in separate directions… our opportunities to connect became less frequent, but in a way, it makes the times we do see each other that […]
