Family Photo List

On your wedding day, you will have so much going on. The last thing you want to try and remember is who you want a photo with. That is why having a family/group photo list is an excellent way not to forget any photos that are important to you.  I highly recommend writing your list down! Trying to “wing it” can be time-consuming and often leads to forgetting an important photo.

I will have your list with me and cross off every photo after we take it. 

Here are just a few examples of some groupings that you might want to add to your list. Obviously, you can do as many groupings as you would like. We will need to have your list done before we make your timeline. If your list is very large, we will want to ensure that we allow enough time in the timeline to complete all of the photos. 

Your list can be as big or as small as you would like. This is your wedding day, and I am here to get the photos you want!

Fascinated by every glittering detail — from the bride’s smile to the heirloom necklace her grandmother let her borrow — I showcase every facet of a wedding day so you can treasure it for decades. 

Whenever I pick up my camera, I strive to create beautiful and emotional images that tell a story and showcase the beauty of both the people in the images and the world around them.  

My love for photography has brought me everywhere from the beaches of sunny California to the mountains in Oregon. But regardless of where I travel, the Willamette Valley and deep forest of my own slice of heaven will always be my home.
