Why you should love your photographer...

On your wedding day you will be spending about 85-90% of your entire day with your photographer by your side. They will be guiding you through every step of the day! You want someone there you trust, who is organized, and who you can have fun with!

When you love your photographer and get along with them really well you can let your guard down around them. You can crack silly jokes and laugh and have fun! In doing so, you end up with not only amazing and genuine photos, but you'll have an even better experience!

When you've taken the time to get to know the person photographing you, they will know and understand your specific needs and wants. They will know the best way to capture you and bring out your best smiles, laughs, and natural emotions. Plus who doesn't love making new friends?!

This Salem graduation session was one thing I loved about this last year! Being able to do a prom dress + graduation session was awesome! It was even better that they were in the SAME session! I definitely feel like I’m going to make this more of a thing! Melina absolutely KILLED her session in […]

I’m not sure if you’ve seen my previous blog post, but this was another amazing prom dress mini session! The cherry blossoms at Salem Capitol Park were in high bloom. Paige looked stunning in her deep red lace gown! In all the craziness of 2020 and all that it took away, my heart went out […]

This session at Capitol Park was EVERYTHING!! I think it’s safe to say this year of 2020 brought on some crazy things and changes we didn’t expect. So much of what we knew as normal was taken away. Things we had been planning for and looking forward to were suddenly not happening anymore. Life as […]

This graduation session at Willamette Mission State Park was SO much fun! I just love graduation sessions for all the joy there is! There is so much excitement for a new beginning that’s about to start and a whole future ahead. Jazmin was not only gorgeous but so sweet and fun! She was filled with […]

There is nothing better than the great outdoors! Except a killer senior session in the great outdoors! Smith Rock is one of my favorite locations to visit and shoot at. It has one of the most incredible views within driving distance of my home. It’s about 3 hours away and luckily this time we didn’t […]

This session with Jon + Rio at Smith Rock was just what my soul needed! One of my favorite things about my business is getting to not only shoot some of the most special days of my client’s lives, but the relationship we build with each other. I am then so blessed to walk through […]

Ohhh these two!! There is nothing sweeter than high school sweethearts! Now in college, these two cuties are loving life together and embracing adventures.

Well this is Oregon and let’s face it, we are bound to run into some rain. But that surely didn’t stop this Minto Brown senior session from happening! Madelynn is a super awesome, go-with-the-flow senior even while it sprinkled on and off during her whole session. It really started coming down right at the end […]

Talk about a super fun senior session! Pamela is just as hilarious as she is stunning! We spent our afternoon strolling through our beloved downtown Salem, laughing and cracking jokes through the streets and down by the local shops, sneaking in and out of alleyways. We ended our time in downtown Salem with an outfit […]
