Portland Family Photographer
Shine on.
Fun, simple, and laid back family photo sessions with smiles that are real & genuine.
As a Portland family photographer, I specialize in documenting all your family’s precious moments. From falling in love, to getting married, to your first child and how they grow, you can count on me to capture your precious memories.
Let’s hang out, take some photos & enjoy the process!
FAMILY PORTRAITS
I can’t wait to get to know you and your family! These sessions can take place at an outdoor location or your home. We’ll take it nice and easy - if we need to take breaks for snack or the bathroom it's ok! If you just need a break from smiling, that's ok too. We will be walking, standing, sitting, running, playing games and having fun!

ADVENTURE SESSION
Let’s go to the mountains, the coast or the Gorge! The PNW has so many locations that are amazing backdrops for portraits. Sometimes these require a short hike, so be prepared to get a little dirty!

MATERNITY PORTRAITS
Mama, you look amazing! Whether it’s your first child or your 4th, pregnancy is one of the most exciting, amazing and sometimes difficult times in your life. I mean, you are growing a human inside of you! Bring your partner, your kids, your dog and let’s photograph that wonderful belly. The best time to do these sessions is around your 7th or 8th month when your belly is the biggest.

LIFESTYLE NEWBORN SESSION
You have a tiny new addition to your family and your life will never be the same! These sessions typically take place in your home. I want this to be so easy for you, so we will take breaks for feeding, changing and whatever else you and the baby need. The best time for these sessions is before baby is 2 weeks old.

Everything’s going to be alright.
Taking photos can be intimidating. Even THINKING about everything involved might be enough to stress you out.
I totally get it! Getting photos of your kiddos can be tricky, but my goal is to make the experience easy, stress free and (dare I say it?) even a little fun for everybody involved.
Over time I’ve had the chance to develop a process that takes the focus off of the traditional “sit still and smile” approach to family photos, and instead gets you and your little ones moving & interacting.
Instead of a tedious and painful studio session, your kids are able to be the beautiful little characters they are, and you get to walk away with photos that are 100% real & genuine.
My promise is that you’ll have beautiful family photos, without all the stress. Sound good?
