- From time to time, there are moments when I need to test out a new lens or technique. This was one of those times and Becca was so nice to be my model! We wanted to do something a little more fun then just "Hey, Becca, can you run up and down our sidewalk for me a few times?" haha and instead heade[...]

- I duck when there is a camera pointed at me. I usually feel like the way I look in pictures doesn't match how I think I am or how I want to look. And I am a little too self-conscious. I love to create, not be the subject!
But I value great images that will remind me of a time, place, and mome[...]

- When choosing a location for your family pictures, there is nothing better than a place that already has meaning for you. Sure, you want somewhere scenic/beautiful but don't let that be the ONLY factor!

- They love this beach. They love to throw rocks, look for shells, and play together here. When the kids are grown and off on their own, they will have lovely memories made here from this time in the boys' lives! How fun to have a little documented piece of it to look back on later and remind them of [...]

- I don't think there is even anything I can say to add to this loveliness... Except maybe to just explain: We got together some dads and their daughters and threw a Tea Party and it was DARLING!!!
Happy Valentine's day, everyone. Celebrate the people you love!

- Last year, the leaves were almost all gone and the sky was completely cloudy. Well, this year we had gorgeous fall colors and sunshine! Hooray! The kiddos are a year older and had so much fun playing in the leaves with mom and dad. And little miss picked her outfit out all by herself... She is absol[...]

- You may or may not recognize these two from their anniversary shoot (check it out here if you missed it!) but their family has just grown! Garrett and I got to spend an evening with them as they snuggled their new little babe, prepared dinner, and enjoyed their gorgeous patio space that Joyanna has [...]

- This shoot was one of a kind, because this family is one of a kind! Every family is which is why it is extra meaningful to create a session that highlights you as a family.
Meet the Knapps: the mama of these three little boys has been my friend since elementary school, and while we have spent all o[...]

- Ooooookay... will you all just look at this beautiful, beaming, growing family?! They really are just too good to be true; they are so genuine and sweet and joyful, they brightened up the soggy wet day! We had planned the session for the park, but the rain that day would. Not. Stop. So, we moved to [...]

- You know those perfect Portland spring days where the mix of sun and clouds are perfect, the air smells fresh and floral, and you are just plain happy you exist in the warming, winter-thawing air? Yep, this was one of those days. I don't know if it is mostly my elation to be back in town for such a [...]
