Andrew William
I had a wonderful morning with Jill and Tim and their week-old baby boy, Andrew. Tim is a firefighter with Portland Fire so we put his gear to good use and little Andrew sure seems excited to follow in his Daddy’s footsteps one day; look at that smile! Welcome to the world, Andrew!
Introducing Eliza
I was so excited to meet this little girl; not only do I adore her Mom & Dad but she kept us all waiting; arriving fashionably late to the world and 11 days after her due date! Eliza is such a cutie, all six pounds of sweet baby newness. I had a really fun time…
Waiting for a Baby Girl
The Michaelis are waiting on the birth of their baby girl in just a few short weeks so I’m happy that we were able to squeeze in a maternity shoot together. They are a wonderful couple and I know they will be fantastic parents. Their 7-year-old toy Australian Shepherd, Mr. Drew got in on some…
Brendan Turns Two!
Shannon and I used to work together so I’ve known little Brendan since before he was born and it’s hard to believe this little guy is almost 2! We met out at McMenamin’s Roadhouse this morning to get some new photos for them. Brendan is such a sweetheart and a big thanks to his Dad,…
Steven: Class of 2014

The Bernards
I started the day snuggling with a brand new baby girl and ended the day out in a corn field and on a tractor with this amazing couple. That’s why I love my job so much! The Bernards have been together for seven years and have never (gasp!) had photos taken together, so I was…
Emerson Marie
A beautiful little girl with a beautiful name, although I might be a bit bias since Emerson is my daughter’s name as well! This little Emerson is just stunning. She has the sweetest face, bright blue eyes and perfect head of dark hair. She didn’t make a peep the whole session. She is a lucky…
Ashley: Class of 2014
I met this lovely lady for her senior pictures tonight. Ashley loves photography but I think she did amazing in front of the lens. She was a natural and so fun to shoot! Good luck with your senior year and enjoy your sneak peek!
Lauren: Class of 2014
This pretty lady had her senior session with me this evening. Lauren, you are stunning and so sweet inside and out. Thank you so much for exploring Reed College with me tonight. Enjoy your sneak peek!
The Sandstrom-Paige-Lee-Adamson Family Reunion
I spent my Sunday evening with all 27 members of the Sandstrom-Paige-Lee-Adamson family. We gathered at a home on Oswego Lake for the reunion and I had such a wonderful time with them all. This group definitely knows how to laugh and have fun. The night ended with some cousin tug-of-war and the oldest grandson…
