My approach to family sessions is simple.

Bring snacks, let go of perfection. Perfectly posed isn’t my style, were after something much more valuable here.

Candid, unplanned & the at rest images. The ones where dad has spit-up on his shoulder.

Those everyday moments - thats where the magic happens.

ON Location

I do not charge travel fees for sessions in the following locations:

Newport, Corvallis, Waldport, Yachats, Depoe Bay, Lincoln City, Pacific City, or any places within 15 minutes of these locations.
If you’re looking for a session outside of these areas, feel free to reach out for a custom quote tailored to your desired location!
I also offer sessions in Manzanita, Cannon Beach, and Rockaway a few times each season with no travel fee. Reach out to get on the list for when I’m traveling to these beautiful spots!
No worries about the rain! I allow rescheduling if the weather doesn’t cooperate—nobody wants to look wet and miserable in their photos. While my retainer fee is non-refundable, we can easily switch our session to a new date if the sky is crying.
However, if your family loves playing in the rain, I’m all for a rainy day adventure! Ive got plenty of rain gear (Im an Oregonian after all!) We can capture those moody, magical moments!
First and foremost: wear something you feel good in! Your comfort and confidence will shine through in your photos.
You can choose a more refined look for a dressed-up vibe or go casual for something more laid-back—both work great! Earthy tones photograph beautifully in outdoor settings. I recommend muted blues, greens, browns, creams, and white. These colors complement nature and help create timeless, beautiful images.
