Gabe is a Class of 2022 senior at Newberg High School. Gabe is quiet and kind. Insanely intelligent, Gabe plans to become an electrical engineer. He’s also an outdoorsman, skilled in hunting, fishing and working on the farm. Gabe is hours away from earning his Eagle Scout. We shot his photo session on a cold winter day on the family […]
Brandon is a Class of 2022 senior at Westside Christian High School. Winter is his favorite season and being on the mountain, skiing through fresh powder is his favorite place to be. He needed photos in the snow. But we had a yearbook deadline to meet so we broke Brandon’s session into a fall mini-session and a larger winter session […]
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 […]
Mandy contacted me in the fall to ask about my availability to photograph their entire family around Christmas time. They were traveling in from different parts of the country and everything was pending COVID restrictions. Not to mention Oregon winters are notoriously rainy and not very scenic by late December. Thankfully we had a rainless morning (in the midst of […]
Another year with the Williams’ family makes me happy. Their obvious love for each other and the way they enjoy life makes them so fun to be around. Plus take one look at Rizzo, their dog. He’s the handsomest. We always have a good time, in spite of the fact that there are three men who would rather be doing […]
I’m so honored when a client hires me and then tells me, “We’ve never had professional family portraits taken” or “it’s been years since we’ve done professional portraits.” The Cannon family fell into that category, so it was pretty awesome to get some fun snaps of their family in the fun location they chose, in spite of the cold and […]
Lucas is a class of 2021 senior and baseball player at Southridge High School. He wanted an urban vibe showcasing Portland for his senior portraits. The day of his session was COLD and foggy, but the sun burned off the fog as we were shooting his session. It was super cool to have multiple backdrops and lighting changes as we […]
Lucas is a Class of 2021 senior at Newberg High School. Lucas is an avid outdoorsman, an athlete, and hard working. He wanted to have his senior session be a small reflection of the things he loves: the water, his dog, his family, and the fun urban-grunge part of his small town. Winter sessions in Oregon are always risky with […]
Jane is a Class of 2021 senior at Lincoln High School. Like every other Class of 2021 student, she had to adapt her dreams and expectations for her senior year to Portland’s COVID restricted life. She is honest about the disappointment, but still filled with joy and that big, beautiful smile. I loved being around her uplifting spirit and easy-going […]
