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?

Ashley and Will were married at the historic Viewpoint Inn in Corbett, Oregon in the beautiful Columbia River Gorge over the weekend. The ceremony was touching, the family warm and welcoming and the location was astonishingly beautiful, as was the bride herself in her designer gown. Thank you to Jenifer of Jenifer Johnston Photography for...
Katrina and Nate celebrated their wedding in front of family and friends at the glorious McMenamin’s Edgefield in Troutdale, Oregon. You may recall their vintage amusement park engagement session we did several months ago. Their cermony took place in Blackberry Meadow under an arching green leafy tree as the sun set over the vineyards. It...
Jessica and James are obviously so happily in love! Their engagement shoot was pretty quick since we were being eaten alive by mosquitos at the park, but we had fun despite the nagging bugs! I feel so lucky to get to photograph their wedding this coming Fall! I’m sure it will be an event filled...
This family is so warm and friendly. Just meeting them, you will feel as though you’ve known them forever. We braved the mosquitos a few nights ago for some gorgeous evening light family photos.
Just for kicks, if you can get 25 friends and family members to comment on this post, I will gift you with an 8×10...
Jessica and Daniel celebrated their vows over fourth of July weekend at a family vineyard in Petaluma, CA. It was my honor to be able to share their day with them. The skies were perfectly blue, and the couple so obviously commmitted to one another. It was an amazing experience! Jessica and Daniel opted to...
Here we are
On earth together
It’s you and I
God has made us fall in love
It’s true
I’ve really found
Someone like you.

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...
Caitlin and Kyle were married in the company of friends and family over Memorial Day weekend in The Dalles, Oregon. The day was a perfect puffy white clouds – cool breeze – relaxed sort of day, and the bride and groom were cool as cucumbers, laughing and hanging out with friends and family before and...
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...
Nicole and Jon are getting married this summer and I cannot wait for all the vintage/country touches that are in the works as they plan and prepare for their big day! For their engagement session this morning, we headed to a farm in Sherwood where we could take advantage of the old barn wood, and...
