It’s true that us Texans in Oregon find each other. True story that Brittani and I would find ourselves basically living parallel lives – going to so many of the same places the first year we lived in Portland. “Oh hi! I didn’t know you went to church here?”… fast forward an hour, “Oh, hi! […]

It’s always a joy to document my client’s lives, but to do a second Day Session for a family is super special! I love working with the Cronin Family in Dallas. They are down to earth, fast paced, family oriented, good at cooking, always displaying the current holiday decor, constantly quizzing their son about what […]

One of my favorite things about Mackenzie is how she laughs at her children – not in a horrible way, but in a “welp, I did what I could and now look at what they’re doing” kind of way. We should all do a little more of that as mothers. She and I have sons […]

The weather was a little questionable at first as I arrived at the Seabold’s family beach house. A special place they’ve come to for the last 30 years to enjoy life, celebrate milestones, get away for some R & R, etc… Now the (big) kids are bringing their kids! When they asked me to do […]

For Brady’s 6th birthday we celebrated by having Steve’s Creature Feature come to our house with his reptile creatures. The kids were able to learn so much while touching, holding, and passing around various large and small reptiles (of course with his close eye and assistance). Some reptiles were only allowed to be viewed from […]

This family is a dear friend of mine and we actually both hail from the great Lone Star State of Texas! It’s such an incredible part of my job as a family photographer to witness families grow (in number and in years). Anyway, another year, another portrait session for the wonderful P Family! 🙂 You […]

This sweet family came racing in from Disney on ice earlier in the day… and they did great – my kids would have been a royal mess if we tried to do family portraits AND another big event in the same day – hah! They did a Fall Mini Session with me last year, too, […]

This year we moved the Fall Mini Sessions from our usual location at Sunny Day Tree Farm to Gabriel Park in SW Portland on a different day (for a host of reasons). Glad we did, because the weather was better and we had some pretty fall foliage colors to work with! Our family loves Gabriel […]
