Carter is a senior at Newberg High School. We managed to squeeze his session in just before the yearbook deadline. It was a chilly but beautiful morning. The Simple Offering is a great option for my senior guys. They can be done in thirty minutes and they still get a minimum of five digital images to call their own. Have […]
Tyler is the captain of Newberg High School’s water polo team, leading his team to three consecutive Oregon 6A state championships. He’s also the best 6A water polo in the state of Oregon… voted MVP in the state two years in a row. Oh and did I mention that he’s one of Newberg High School’s fastest swimmers? I’m happy to sing his […]
McKenna’s “little” brother has been good friends with my son since we moved to Newberg more than eight years ago. The family resemblance is strong! I’m so used to relating to McKenna’s family via Raleigh and water polo that it was strange and super fun to spend time with McKenna and her mom doing something unrelated to water polo. McKenna […]
I met Gracie the summer before her 7th grade year. It’s crazy to me that she’s a senior now and about to launch into adulthood. Isn’t she lovely? We got so lucky with the weather for her senior session. It was cold, but sunny and so beautiful for a winter day in Oregon. Gracie didn’t complain about the cold and […]
We met Nathan eight years ago when he was volunteering in the two year old classroom at our church. We appreciated his faithful service, gentle demeanor, and welcoming smile, especially on the Sundays when our reluctant, often tearful two-year-old would cling a little longer before heading into class. I remember when Nathan met Jenny. His already bright countenance got even brighter. He […]
The M Family chose to shoot their photo session in their park-like backyard. We included their labradoodle Andes in the session. He was a good model. The kids had all kinds of good ideas for posing and locations which made this session a truly collaborative session. Thank you M family for a fun day. May Jesus bless you in the upcoming year. #fall #familyoffive […]
October was the third rainiest October on record in Oregon’s history. It made shooting fall photo sessions really tricky. Thankfully we lucked out and had a dry and gorgeous morning at Champoeg State Park for our multi-generation family photo session that involved three sisters, their husbands, their children, and their mom. The six kiddos involved ranged in age from 5 years […]
Chey moved from New York to Oregon the summer before her senior year of high school. How brave is that? She’s finishing her high school career at Sprague High School and already making a bunch of friends. It was such a pleasure to meet her and her mom. She chose Champoeg State Park for the session location because she loves […]
Nate is a senior at Newberg High School. He didn’t want a big, long senior session, but he did want some cool senior portraits. The Simple Offering was perfect for him. We did a quick 30 minute photo session. He had enough time to change once and still use several different backgrounds. His five images capture who he is and tell his […]
Paula and I have been acquaintances for year and close friends for almost two years. It sounds silly on paper. Only two years? Cause it feels like a lifetime. In those two years we have worked together. Played together. Run together. Hiked together. Worked through disagreements together. Shared our joys and sorrows with each other. Cried together. Prayed together. Celebrated together. In two […]
