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.

Brand New | The Thornberry Family | Portland Newborn Session

There are sessions I walk away from and just feel it, the weight of something really good. The Thornberry newborn session in Portland was one of those. A tiny new person, bare winter trees, a wooden footbridge, and two people who could not stop smiling at the baby in their arms.

Cozy in Treasure Valley — Kimmy, Keaton, Poppy & Milo's In-Home Session in Nampa, Idaho

Some sessions you walk into and immediately feel it — that lived-in, loved-in warmth that no studio could ever replicate. Kimmy and Keaton's home in Nampa was exactly that. Two kids, a gallery wall full of memories already made, and a baby named Milo with the kind of smile that makes everyone in the room completely lose it.

Dasha and Cameron: An Apple Orchard Family Session in Idaho

A late summer evening in an apple orchard outside Emmett, Idaho with Dasha, Cameron, their daughter, and their two black labs. Rows of ripe apples, golden grass, and the kind of soft light that makes everything feel like a memory in the making.

Tucked Into the Green — Samantha's Family Session on Private Property in Portland, Oregon

Portland does something to family photos that nowhere else can quite replicate. That deep, lush green everywhere, the soft overcast light, the feeling of being tucked away from the rest of the world. Samantha and her family gave me all of that. Plus a toddler with a smile so big it basically lit up the whole forest.

The McNeil Family at Cathedral Park in Portland

A first session with the McNeil family at Cathedral Park under the St. Johns Bridge in Portland. Three blonde little boys, a red Radio Flyer wagon, and a family I knew right away I hoped I'd get to photograph again
