OREGON BASED (BUT NOT BOUND) PORTRAIT & WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

I grew up in the kind of small Oregon town where we spent summers blissfully riding our bikes to the market for ice cream, learning to drive by doing donuts in the field behind the house, and falling asleep to the sound of crickets drifting in through the open window. 

Today I document every moment with the care and attention to detail it deserves. I turn family photo sessions into experiences filled with with light, joy, and sincere emotion.

it's okay, Scrolling to the bottom is my style too. download the free guide to make your next family photo session a joy fill experiance!
