Hello! This has been in the works for some time and I'm so excited to finally offer Kindergarten Cap and Gown mini sessions this spring with two location and date options.
The Details
I am offering two dates and locations:
May 2: Private Farm in Lebanon
May 3: Bush’s Pasture Park, Salem
Session Cost: $120 per child
Includes a 15 minute session, 7 beautifully edited digital images of your choice from an online gallery (with options to purchase additional images), and a delivery date of May 23—just in time for graduation!

Cap & Gown Info
I will provide a white or blue cap and gown for the session. You are also welcome to bring your own.

* Group Discount: Bring a group of 5 or more and get $10 off per child with code 5+Sale. This is perfect for friends, cousins, or co-op groups!
* Booking Tip: If you want group shots of friends together, please book consecutive time slots.
* Important Note: Friend group shots will be taken in regular outfits unless you provide your own extra caps and gowns, as I have a limited supply on hand.

Prepping for spring school portraits next month and had the best model for the "Mark your calendar" flyers the school requested to send home with students!

***I am also available for Homeschool/Charter School groups. Message me if you'd like portraits for your students:)***

This might be one of my favorite sessions from 2022 and possibly ever! San Francisco did not disappoint....And I think I could happily live in continual Summer for the rest of my life if it meant I get this beautiful light for all my sessions:)

Hello, Friends!
It's been a really busy couple of months over here with some family sessions and 5 maternity shoots within the last 4 weeks. I'm so excited to be getting back into photography and being able to devote more time to this passion of mine.
I finally got my website up and running!!! That took a lot more work than I thought it would. But, here it is:) Send me a message if you would like to chat about getting a session set up. My spring is about to become very full with photo editing so if you'd like a spring session, please contact me soon:)

A natural light portrait photographer, based in Salem, Oregon. I love being able to capture real moments and unique personality of each subject...the silly faces of an outgoing child and the smile from a bashful one. I love being able to preserve for you the love of your family shining through photo...

This beautiful mama, her little man and the dreamy, golden hour light made this maternity session perfect!
