Emily was so much fun to work with! I hadn’t seen her since she was in elementary school (her older sister was classmates with my oldest son and they did some extracurriculars together), so I was a bit taken aback at how grown up she was. This adorable senior brought some great outfits (and shoes) to her session, which we did this past June. Although these photos are not yearbook candidates (the deadline was long past), she wanted to do some last minute portraits, to document her upcoming graduation. We met up at my studio and walked around to nearby locations, including Riverfront park, an empty dock, the new pedestrian bridge, Minto Brown Park, and of course, downtown. For the last few shots, we took a short drive over to Deepwood Museum & Gardens, which never disappoints.

Oregon Coast Senior Portrait Photographer - a fun morning in Astoria!
I met up with Joslyn and her mom, in Astoria, for half of her senior portraits. I’ve known this beautiful human since she was born (I met her Mama when she was pregnant with her). I used to babysit her when she was little, and have photographed her several times before, so this was easy and natural for both of us. The weather was great and allowed us to walk around on the riverfront and in the downtown area, before getting too hot. We even stopped at the food trucks to get some breakfast!
Salem Senior Photographer - Madeline, Class of 2021
This senior’s adorable style made my 90s teen heart so happy! I’ve known her mom for nearly twenty years and while I have watched Madeline grow up online, this was my first time actually meeting her in person. She’s as sweet as can be and like I said, I love her style! From her hair, to her outfit, to her shoes…so cute!
Salem Oregon Senior Portrait Photographer - Royice, Class of 2021
I’ve been photographing this kid since he was FIVE! I can’t believe he’s done with high school (graduated in January) and living his adult life now. His mom is my dear friend and I’ve watched her help him overcome some major challenges throughout his life. It wasn’t easy, but they did it! Congrats, Royice (and Michiko)!
