I started talking to Olivia in the fall about doing a senior shoot with her and we finally got around to it in the new year! I’m SO glad that we did because Olivia is not only a beautiful girl, but such a kind and sweet girl too! I absolutely loved spending time with her, not […]

I knew Kendall when she was in 8th grade for the one year that I spent working at a school as a Teacher’s assistant/extra hand for anything anyone needed help with. Haha. She was such a sweet and beautiful girl, and she’s only grown to become even more genuinely sweet and more beautiful! I loved being able […]

My schedule has been so crazy this season, it’s been the busiest photography season I’ve ever had!! My sister loves pictures just as much as I do (maybe more) and we were sad that I didn’t have any time left over to take some photos of her and my brother in law! Then, someone needed to […]

Oh my goodness, I am so in love with this session!!! I often say that senior pictures and individual portraits are some of my favorite pictures to take, but then I take photos of a couple that is so in love and I’m reminded how special these shoots are to me! Jay emailed me in the early […]

Being able to take photos of this beautiful girl made me so happy!!! I knew Kayla in high school, which feels like forever ago but also feels like it was just the other day all at the same time. I’m not sure how that’s possible. Haha. Kayla was looking for some updated photos for her […]

I’ve known Monika since I was in 2nd grade… that’s over 16 years!! We were the best of friends in elementary school and I met her husband Grant before they were even together through Fine Arts with a church I use to attend. I love doing shoots with people that I’ve known for a while […]

I met Kelsey a few weeks ago in Portland when I took some portraits of her to use on her fashion blog! I had such a lovely evening with her and when I found out that she is engaged, I knew I wanted to snatch up the opportunity to take engagement pictures of her and […]

It’s Wednesday! But, since I’m still catching up on posting photos from Portland, I’m skipping Wisdom Wednesday this week and sharing my session with Katelyn! However, if you haven’t seen my recent Wisdom Wednesdays, check them out here! :)   Katelyn became very interested in nutrition after she had a few health problems in the padt, so […]

When Sam and I were discussing possible locations for her shoot, she suggested Cathedral Park, and I was so happy!! I saw plenty of pictures of Cathedral Park before coming to Portland when I was browsing the web for shoot locations, but I hadn’t shot there all summer! So, I’m thankful I had the opportunity to […]

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 […]
