advertising: cute baby faces and family portraits

Photojournalistic portraits that capture the spunk and life of children.  Blending experience as a teacher and  photographer, my on-location sessions are as comfortable as a play date while providing the beauty and quality of professional portraits.  Remember the sparkle of this age. Call me today!

Here's my latest ad in NW kids magazine.  Isn't she cute!!!??

i got published! well, bloglished... by the english dept

see my photos at the english deparment's blog. they sell dapper wedding attire in portland, oregon.

This was a great wedding to shoot. The sun and the smiles were out in full force! 

 Girls got ready at the Heathman Hotel downtown Portland first

and then everyone met up at one of my favorite venues (and i swear they don't pay me to say that) hoyt arboretum.  I love shooting here because it's a rural feel right in the city.

succulents and rings and sunshine are bffs

     it was a quick drive to south park seafood restaurant for a lively and delish reception.

  congrats to sarah and paul!  thanks for having me as your photographer and I will see you for newborn shots very soooooon!
