I took photos for this family almost a year ago and it was instantly one of my favorite family sessions ever! Now, after taking photos of them for a second time… with a new family member…. this is officially my NEW favorite family session ever!!! Ben and Becky have been in my life for a […]

I met Olga and her family on Sauvie Island, which you know I love shooting at if you’ve seen any of my recent posts! Olga runs a blog called, Vintage Pretty. Her blog has everything from fashion and to her day to day life, all the way to pregnancy adventures and DIY projects! I love […]

Liana is related to another family that I regularly take photos for, the Wallwork’s. Liana and Brian are getting married in a few short months and contacted me to not only take some engagement photos for them, but to document their new family! What better way to celebrate than with photos?! :) I had such a […]

These families were so much fun to shoot altogether! Sometimes things can get a little crazy when this many people are involved, but everyone was patient and willing when necessary which helped the shoot go along wonderfully! It was a windy day, which can make things… interesting, haha. We tried to make the wind work […]

I LOVE taking photos of my good friends! I love to show people how much I love them and appreciate that they are in my life and being able to provide them with photos that will last for ever is one of my favorite ways to do that! :) I met this friend in Master’s […]

Leslie contacted me months ago about setting up a family shoot! It took a while to find a date that worked for everyone but I’m so glad that we did because I had a wonderful time with the Valdez family! Leslie and I had been talking via email for a while and I could feel […]

I have known a few members of this family since I was in High School, which was about 7 years ago… so quite some time. Haha. Mary was my Bible teacher and also one of my favorite teachers that I was blessed to have a personal relationship with as well! When her daughter, Betsy, contacted […]

I’m pretty sure that every time I take photos of a large family, someone always warns me that their family can get “crazy”… It must be a common phrase to say to the photographer! The first few times people would say this to me, I would be genuinely frightened, haha, just a little bit! However, […]

I’m so blessed to know this family and to have had the opportunity to photograph them a couple weeks ago. Dr. Michael Maiden is the lead pastor of Church For The Nations, along with his wife Pastor Mary. Actually, about half of this amazing family serve on staff at the church as well! Church For […]
