Meet Baby Alex
It’s sessions like this one that remind me of how much I enjoy sharing in the happy moments of my clients. I photographed Libbi and Aaron’s wedding in October 2011. It was a beautiful day, filled with joy, love, and all of the good stuff that make a wedding truly memorable. When I heard that […]
A Portrait Session with the Appel Family
It feels like it was yesterday that I took Aja’s maternity photos. However, it was nearly two years ago that I photographed Aja and Eric while they were expecting their first baby. A lot has happened since then, including the arrival of sweet Bella. A few weeks ago, I had the chance to photograph the […]
Ben’s Baby Portraits
Our summer season is in full swing! In addition to weddings, I’ve also had the opportunity to photograph several wonderful families and I thought I’d share a recent family session with you. Baby Ben was all smiles during his session. It was joy photographing him with his parents, Ryan and Ali, on a lovely Sunday […]
Baby Portraits at Peninsula Park
Brayden is one of the happiest babies I’ve ever met. This little guy smiled throughout his entire portrait session. I’m guessing it’s because he feels so well loved by his family. Have I mentioned how much I enjoy photographing families? I LOVE it! Portrait sessions like this one are the reason why. They are so […]
Miranda’s First Birthday Celebration
Is there anything cuter than a baby’s first birthday party? I don’t think so! Little Miranda celebrated her first birthday on April 15th, surrounded by family and friends. It was a fun afternoon filled with sunshine, cake, and presents. As always, I’m honored to have the opportunity to photograph these happy moments. It’s hard to […]

North Portland Family Photo Session
I was just saying to Tatum, the mother of the two adorable children pictured below, that photographing her family felt more like a play date than a photo session. What fun it was! Family sessions are the best and I love working with former clients. I first met David and Tatum back in 2006, when […]

One of the greatest joys of my job is having the opportunity to photograph people, year after year, and to witness their lives […]

Meet Baby Miranda
I enjoy having the opportunity to do both a maternity and a newborn photo session for the same family. As someone who loves the stories and relationships behind the people I photograph, getting the chance to document this exciting and transformative time in a family’s life is gratifying. I truly enjoyed getting to know Kendra […]
Family Portrait Session at Mt. Tabor
I love happy babies. A smiling baby makes me feel that all is right in the world. It’s no surprise to me that Marian and Matt would be the parents of, Olivia, one of the happiest babies I’ve ever met. I had the pleasure of meeting Marian and Matt when I photographed their engagement session […]
Meet Baby Josie
Isn’t she lovely? I’ve been looking forward to Josie’s newborn session ever since mid-December when Mike, Josie’s dad, purchased a photo session for his wife, Octavia, who was expecting a baby in March. Octavia loves photographs and a newborn photo session was, in my opinion, such a thoughtful gift that will be enjoyed for many, […]

I love, love, love this next maternity session. Kendra and her husband Michael are are expecting a baby girl any day now. I had the pleasure of spending a wonderfully relaxing afternoon photographing them, just a couple of weeks before the arrival of their first child. Kendra and Michael are extremely kind and gentle people […]
Connor – 6 months
It amazes me how much a baby can grow and change in just six months. I photographed this sweet face back in September, when Connor was just a newborn. Here he is, six months later, with his fabulous parents, Ryan and Kate, and their adorable Boston Terrier, Bob. What a cute family!
Raleigh Turns One
I thought I’d wrap up this week with another adorable kiddo! This sweet little girl is the daughter of Matt and Rochelle, whose wedding we photographed back in 2008. Matt and Rochelle’s wedding in Gearhart was one of the most memorable weddings that we’ve photographed. It was quite the party and Matt, Rochelle, and their […]
