Jennifer O'Donnell Photography bio picture

Welcome to my blog.

As your photographer, my ultimate goal is to draw out your story, your personality, your individuality and true emotion.  I am not a traditional studio photographer, but rather choose to take a more photojournalistic approach to children and family portraiture, capturing you in the moment - laughing, loving and interacting just as you do every day.  I prefer to stand back and capture life as it happens.  A session with me is never rushed, never uncomfortable, never about seeking a "cheese-face" grin.   What you will get from a session with me is honest emotion - the real you.  Real life.  Pure Joy!

Let's get started, shall we?

Tea for two :: Portland Oregon & NW Washington Photographer

It was a little girl’s playground on the grounds where we shot this little tea party for two precious sisters.  These are the sweet children of my photography friend Maricar of Maricar Lianne Photography.  After I shot this dreamy session with the girls, I moved on to mom and dad with a session of their own!  I’ll share...

Photographer’s Playground :: Jennifer O’Donnell Photography :: Portland Oregon & Vancouver Washington Photographer

I was up in The Dalles in the stunning Columbia River Gorge for a wedding shoot, and on my way home, stopped by to take some photos of these three stunners! I felt like I was in my own little photographer’s playground. Wildflowers, rusty old pickups, tall grasses, orchards…sigh. I could photograph there everyday and...
