Philip and Lewanna got hitched at their church in Portland OR, then drove to Cape Horn Estate for their reception. I had the immense pleasure of second shooting this wedding alongside one of my besties, Brittany Forgette. It was our first time shooting together and 10/10 would do it again. In fact, two weeks later,…
Family photos season is here and I know what you’re thinking: “How do I get everyone on board without losing my holiday spirit?” And honestly, as a tired AF single mom – FAIR QUESTION!

It’s such a joy to help my clients document their beautiful families against this fleeting backdrop. And the results speak for themselves. These sessions are so convenient and easy and…
In a world full of noise about what women should look like, act like, or strive for, empowerment photography is a revolutionary act of self-love. It’s not about achieving a certain look. It’s about celebrating who you are right now, unapologetically. What Is Empowerment Photography? You don’t need lingerie or a makeover or even a dramatic pose to qualify…
Watching my kid find a bestie two doors down from where we live has been the greatest joy. They have been inseparable for as long as we can remember, they don’t even remember meeting – they only know life as a duo. They are girlhood personified. Between giggling and inside jokes, painting their nails and…
