I had an elective course I needed to complete at the end of my program and have always been intrigued with photography so I thought I would give it a shot. I quickly realized that my passion was behind the lens and not writing HTML code or designing a logo…and the rest is history. During my sessions, I really like to capture a story in pictures… candids are my fav. For families, it’s a chance to b
e fully present with your children, as a family. Document the hugs, smell, the sounds and size of your kids before they are gone and off making lives for themselves. It’s so important to not only have pictures OF your children, but WITH your children. For Seniors, this a a chance to capture a quick moment in time. Really, the last year of them living as a child under your roof. It’s SO important to document this precious time with them by not only capturing this time but also helping them gain confidence with some amazing pictures of themselves to take with them into adulthood. I have been blessed with a wonderful family: My husband Kevin is my biggest fan and my rock who loves music and has a cute southern drawl. My son Paul (15) is all about sports and can usually be seen with a basketball nearby. My daughter Avery (6) is my little "sassy" princess with a BIG personality who loves to dance, sing and paint. I am a native North-westerner and grew up in the Portland area, but moved to Bend in 2004 to get away from the rain and traffic and have never looked back. In my spare time I enjoy hiking, music, gardening, and a good CrossFit workout. I am a coffee lover and a sucker for a great burger!
