I first met Ayaka at a house show where her and Harper performed. Her voice and musical presence are absolutely beautiful and full of grace, which makes sense, because so is she! We walked around The International Rose Test Garden and took photos amongst all the amazing flowers, some happened to even be taller than […]

I met Rose last week at the Pittock Mansion to start off our shoot! I had been there before to visit and knew it was beautiful, but I didn’t think it would help my photos be THIS beautiful!! Although, I shouldn’t give all the credit to the mansion, most of it should go to Rose […]

Kelsey is a fashion blogger who lives in Portland and regularly posts about her fashion and life over at her blog, Ladies in Navy. I think one of my new favorite things is to work with fashion bloggers! Why? Well, they are use to taking outfit photos daily so they are completely comfortable in front of the […]

I took photos of Alyssa when I first got to Portland and had such an amazing time! When we were planning her shoot, she mentioned that her band could use some photos, and I was thrilled! This was my first time taking photos of a band, but they are all so sweet that I instantly felt […]

I met Alyssa at a park in downtown Portland that I had seen some pictures of prior to coming to here, so it made me a little excited! :) After shooting a little but in the city, we moved on to do some photos on the docks for the second part of our shoot… and […]

If you follow my photography, you have probably seen photos of this beautiful girl several times. She is one of my best friends and has been for over 12 years now! I love going on photography adventures with her! I arrived in Portland about two weeks ago now and Casey made the drive up here […]

I could happily take photos of this beautiful, little girl everyday and be completely content. She is not only heart meltingly adorable… but she is such a natural in front of the camera. At such a young age she is comfortable with herself enough to know how to position her body and what facial expression […]

Oh, how I love taking photos of this beautiful lady! I’m so glad that we got in touch last summer while I was in LA, because now whenever we’re in the same city, a shoot happens! :) I am in LOVE with the shoot we did last time she was in town, if you haven’t […]

Casey is one of my very best friends! We’ve been best friends since 7th grade, that’s 13 years! She is also one of my absolute favorite people to take photos of because she completely natural and comfortable in front of the camera and beauty shines from the inside out! I love that she’s up for […]
