Hi, come in. This is where I share the full stories behind the sessions, and if you read enough of them, you'll start to notice something: a lot of the same names keep showing up. Engagements turn into weddings turn into maternity sessions turn into family photos with three kids and a dog. After fifteen years of this work, my favorite thing is that I rarely get to say goodbye to anyone. I just get to see them again in a new chapter. These are those chapters.

Roll for Cuteness | Chantal & Evan's Maternity Session at Oxbow Regional Park, Oregon
Evan is my cousin and my Dungeon Master — whether we're mid-campaign in Dungeons & Dragons or deep into a Pathfinder session, he's the one running the table. For their maternity session, we took to the ancient forest at Oxbow Regional Park on the Sandy River, where 700-year-old trees make everything feel hushed and timeless. Chantal wore an emerald dress and wildflowers in her hair and looked completely at home in the wild. This one was deeply special to photograph.
