Welcome

I am a natural light photographer, specializing in Seniors, Individuals and Engagement Sessions. I love to capture the special memories that will be cherished by your family for years to come. Capturing real life as a portrait is what I love to do. Real. Life. Portraiture.

I just had to share this one picture from my baby session this morning. What a sweetheart!!

Party of 4?

I love this family!

Our family has known Zach and Holly for about 5 years. I got to take pictures of their adorable son right after he came home. (See those pictures!) And they are pictured on my business card too!

Anyway, their family has grown and they are just getting cuter!

Every single shot I took of these kiddos was adorable...and their parents can't take a bad picture either! :)

Enjoy!

He's Growing Up!!

Call me crazy, but I get sorta attached to the little ones that I photograph on a regular basis! And this cutie is no exception! I just love this little guy to pieces! His mom and dad are pretty cool too! I love building relationships with my clients, these guys feel more like friends then they do clients. (And I hate that word "clients" by the way. It just sounds so formal!) We got these super fun pictures in the most glorious lighting last week. They all turned out so gorgeous!

Stutzman Family


I got to meet with a sweet family last weekend...there were three kids and not one of them threw a fit! ;) We got some really cute pictures of mom and dad...as well as the kids. Although they claimed to be a somewhat serious family, I think they have fun together and we were able to get some fun poses!

Sweet Little Miss

This sweet little girl is so much fun! I had such a good time getting down on her level. Its always fun to capture a few shots while a little one is just being themselves.

2+1=Family

This was the first time I used this covered bridge for a session and I loved it! The lighting under the bridge was just amazing! I got to meet with Dan and Kerri and their little girl again last week. (Boy has she grown up.) She is such a cutie and she certainly knows just what she wants! I can't wait to post a few more pictures from the end of the session. We got some great action/play shots while she was entertaining herself with my necklace.

~Family Session~

I met with this sweet family last week. Their little girl is a ball of fire, so on the go and full of spunk! She is so adorable with her big brown eyes. And their newest one is such a sweet little boy.

Beautiful!

I met with Rachel and her mom last week for some senior pictures. You might remember Rachel's cousin from a previous session. Rachel was just as beautiful to photograph. She knows all the right moves and has great poses without much prompting from me. So without further ado...here are a few from her session....they are beautiful!

Dani ~Albany, Oregon Personal Trainer~

Photobucket

Dani and I met a few years ago when we both worked at ACS. It has been really fun to work with Dani...she has given me some great one on one training and I really felt like I could do some great things. Now I just need to follow through! (And keep going to see her!) :)

Check out her website, take a look and see what she offers!

Dani Chance ~Personal Trainer~

So we did a session for Dani to get some head shots and updated fitness photo's done. This was a lot of fun...especially since I got to be the one telling Dani to "RUN!" or do exercises!

Taking a Chance....

Wow....could I get any cornier? Oh wait, you don't know that!
Well lets just say that my title to this post is a play on this families name. I met with Dani and her family last week to take some portraits of them. I think they all turned out pretty sweet. It was hard to choose my favorites and the only thing that helped me was the fact that the overcast sky was so bright that day that I had to pull out the pictures with squint-y eyes. Here are a few...

I met a sweet family last week for their maternity session and we were able to squeeze in some family shots too. It was so much fun to watch their little girl, who did such a great job with the pictures. Here are some of the family images, there are still some maternity images to come!
