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?

Pacific City, Oregon :: Portland, Oregon & Vancouver, Washington Family Photography

This super fun family wanted some beach photos at their favorite coastal town.  Pacific City, Oregon was just as charming and traditionally “beachy” as I imagined it would be.  I enjoyed the day spent there and photographing this fun-loving group was an added perk!  They have a family tradition of taking photos of everyone jumping,...

Family :: Portland, Oregon & NW Washington Family Photographer

Today was the typical NW Spring day, varying from sun to sprinkles to torrential downpours.  Lucky for us, the sprinkles ended five minutes before our shoot began and held off throughout the session.  The sun even came out for us!  We had an adventure tromping around in the wild grasses and flowering weeds.  A bird...
