I met Molly playing pickleball. We were both new to the game. She was catching on SUPER fast. I was not. Like how can a game that looks so easy be so hard? Anyway, we both like to laugh and have a hard time staying focused for long periods of time so we bonded over these things and formed a […]

Clara is a 2025 graduate from Newberg High School who plan to attend George Fox University in the fall to study nursing. It was poetic that she chose the Fox campus as the location for her high school graduation cap and gown photos… an ode to what has been and a nod to what lies ahead. We had the most […]
Oregon has been showing off with two straight weeks of no rain and late evening spring sunshine. ZiZi and I took full advantage of that pretty light for her cap and gown mini-session. Isn’t she lovely? Congratulations ZiZi. It’s been such a joy to work with you this summer and now again to celebrate your graduation accomplishment. I pray you […]
Tristan is a Class of 2025 senior. We shot a summer session before his senior year and his mom wanted to bookend his senior year with a spring session as well, including some with his cap and gown. The weather in Oregon has been INSANE these past few weeks… so so beautiful and that included the day of Tristan’s session. […]

The Williams Family is one of my favs… every year we pick a place in the neighborhood to do a quick family photo session. Every year, they bring their awesome family and their dogs. We’ve been re-creating the boys on piggy back since they were little groms. Hard to believe Owie is a senior in high school now. (Insert crying […]
Hunter is a Class of 2025 senior at C.S. Lewis Academy. He loves basketball so we made sure to incorporate this passion into his senior portraits. We also found some abandoned railroad tracks to use as a backdrop for his photos, re-creating this Dad’s senior portraits, which was meaningful. So great to meet you Hunter. I hope you have an […]
Will is a Class of 2025 senior at Central Catholic High School. His family was due for family portraits so we did a combined, late fall photo session and got the very last bit of the fall color. Since it was cold we worked quickly – banging out the family session and his senior portraits in les than 30 minutes. […]
Isaiah is a Class of 2025 senior at McMinnville High School. Isaiah really wanted a train in his photos, but the best we could do was some corrugated metal and some old train tracks to start, then we headed into a less grungy area of town to finish his session. We had a beautiful late fall day for his senior […]
