National Adoption Day
Families come together in many ways. This Saturday I took my backdrop and lights down to the Lloyd Center Mall in Portland Oregon to volunteer my time taking free pictures of children and families attending the National Adoption Day celebration “Oregon Celebrates Adoption“. I’ve always felt strongly about adoption, especially as our population expands and children [...]
Wyatt’s 1-Year Photos
It’s been a pleasure to watch Wyatt grow up over the past year. I can’t believe he is already a year old! Now I’ve done a fair few of these first birthday cake disaster shoots and they are always interesting. Typically, you have to hold the baby back from destroying the cake before you get [...]
Photographing Babies’ New Tricks!
One of the biggest rewards to me as a portrait photographer is seeing babies grow up. It is just so fun to watch them get bigger, learn new tricks, and interact in exciting and different ways. I love seeing the world anew through the eyes of each child. That’s why I’ve been so lucky to [...]
More Family Pictures
Here’s another amazing family from my holiday photography season. Mom contacted me with a plea, asking if there was any way I shoot a family portrait session between Dec 23 and Dec 29th, since her family would be together only for that short window of time. She shared that her oldest son lives in Seattle, [...]
November Girl – Newborn Photos
This lovely little girl was such a champ, her mom and dad brought her into the studio and although I’d been there for 3 hours trying to warm it up, it was hardly 60 degrees in the room and just would not warm up! We had two space heaters on her and wrapped her in [...]
Rockin’ Through the Ages High School Dance
Back in March I went to Southern California to photograph a Sadie Hawkins Dance with Jonah Gilmore. The theme of this dance was Rockin’ through the ages, so each couple was dressed up as though they were from an era of rock and roll. We had everything from flappers to hippies to 80’s hair bands! [...]
What To Wear For Your Portrait Session
Many people ask me what to wear to their portrait session. Fortunately, or unfortunately, there is not a simple answer to this question! Different sessions call for different styles and color pallets. Let me show you what I mean… Maternity sessions are a prime example. It’s easy to go with the basic which is black. Simple [...]
School Dance Photography
I don’t do a lot of large events, but I’ve been working with Jonah Gilmore of Rocket Science Photography on some high school dances this year, and it’s been a whole lot of fun! I don’t know about you, but I remember my school dance pictures and I am almost embarrassed to think about them. With my [...]
Studio Head Shots
I did my first in-home-studio session yesterday. They’re just standard business head shots, but I’m excited because you’d never know I wasn’t in the studio!
Senior Portraits in the Studio
It’s so much fun, and such a challenge, to meet a young person and in 10-15 minutes deduce who they are, who they want to portray themselves as, and build enough rapport that they trust you not to embarrass them. I met this senior and instantly liked her. She had that tough persona but such [...]
Summertime Newborn Portraits
Summer is such a great time for newborn babies, which of course translates to this newborn portrait session. Newborns are a challenge, because you are completely on their schedule. Ixa did a beautiful job, and mom and I got a lot of good chatting in while she fell asleep. I loved how mom had flower [...]
