Caine is a Class of 2024 senior at Horizon Christian High School. We shot his session at his house. It added an extra layer of customization to his session. Caine is fixing up his really old truck, which of course had to make an appearance. Caine’s #1 request for his senior portrait session was “shoot this as fast as possible.” […]
The first time I photographed this sweet family they had one grandchild. A couple years later and their treasures have grown to three sweet grandchildren. It was COLD and rainy the day of their photo session, but the entire Carlough family just rolled with the bad weather and a few bouts of melancholy with the kiddos. I’m so pleased with […]
The Lunz Family has been an active part of our family’s life for the better part of the last six or seven years. We met at church. Casual “how was your week” chats before or after the service turned into “want to go share a meal?” and then morphed into deep friendship. We have celebrated life’s joys together. Wept together […]
I love shooting extended family photo sessions, especially around the holidays. Everyone gathering from their homes – usually someone from out of town – to celebrate being together and the love they share. It’s such an honor to be trusted with these sessions. This is the second time I’ve photographed the entire Mears family and they are just so fun. […]
When Rachel booked me to take her family photos for the end of February we thought we were gambling with working around rain. But winter in Oregon this year has been much colder than usual. What would have typically just been a wet, cold week turned into a late winter snow storm two days before their session was scheduled. The […]
Every holiday season I get inquiries from clients wondering if I’m willing to shoot photo sessions in the days just before or just after Christmas. The answer is almost always “Yes.” Not because I particularly like peeling myself off the couch where I’m snuggled with my crew who are home on Christmas break, but because I understand just how special […]

Nate is Class of 2023 senior at Estacada High School. Skilled with his hands and working with motors and cars, he bought and brought back to life a beautiful old truck. Nate plans to continue to work with motors/vehicles in some capacity after he graduates from high school. We had a COLD and clear winter day to shoot his senior […]
Joe is a Class of 2023 senior. A talented artist, Joe is earning an Advanced Placement Art diploma from his high school, but plans to make a career in dermatology. Joe wanted an urban setting for his senior portraits that matched his artistic vibe. We had a beautiful winter day in Portland for his session and we were able to […]
Kiki is a Class of 2023 senior at Sherwood High School. She competes in color guard and plays in the band. She brought her wooden color guard rifle to her session and showed me how she spins it during competition. SO COOL! I’ve known Kiki since she was in pre-school so it was a huge honor to take her senior […]
