Salem Oregon Headshot Photographer - in office headshots for local therapist

While I enjoy shooting in a studio, I looove photographing people at work, for their business headshots! These photos of Ka Rin were taken in her downtown Salem office, where she does therapy sessions. Not only does it allow the subject to be a little more comfortable and relaxed in their own environment, but it gives the viewers a little peek into where they’ll be hanging out. Thankfully, she had some beautiful window light in her space, which meant I didn’t have to bring all of my cumbersome lighting equipment.

Salem Oregon Portrait Photographer - curvy & colorful

This was such a fun session! Aly is obviously beautiful on the outside, but she was also an absolute sweetheart to work with! We spent some time, just walking around and chatting in downtown Salem, while also getting some updated shots for her modeling portfolio. It felt like I was catching up with an old friend, even though it was the first time we’d ever met.

Salem Oregon Headshot Photographer - real estate portraits

I love an excuse to spend time with this babe, so when she needed some real estate headshots, I was all in! I usually do business portraits at my studio or on-location, but we shot these in my garage! Logistically, this was the only thing that worked for both of us, so we made it happen. I have to say, I think they turned out quite lovely!

Salem Oregon Headshot Photographer - casual, stylish portraits

Maisie is just the cutest! This is our 3rd session together and I always have so much fun chatting with her. I love her style, which is mostly put together with thrifted items.

This adorable teenager needed a professional headshot, as she was advancing to the national level of a singing competition. This was taken in my studio (343 Court Street NE) with a simple black backdrop.

Salem Oregon Headshot Photographer - Adorable Miss Chloe

Here’s a fun little fact about my boudoir sessions…. I almost always try to get one shot that can also serve as a headshot in a pinch (or at least a PG rated pic to share with your conservative Granny). Chloe looked beautiful and I think this simple portrait came out just fabulously!

Hood River Portrait Photographer - a hippie girl and her camera

I recently posted some boudoir photos that I did of my friend, River, but we also did some regular portraits that day. We couldn’t resist, seeing as the property was so gorgeous! In case you were wondering, yes, River really is this vibrant in person. She’s full of sunshine and light and she’s just an awesome person to be around. She is also a birth photographer and doula in La Grande, Oregon, so if you’re expecting and you live in her area…look her up (River & Wave is the name of her business)!

Portland Oregon Headshot Photographer - Bre, on film

When someone books me for a single headshot, I shoot digital because the turnaround time is faster and I don’t really want to waste a whole roll of film for one shot. If you’re interested in having your portraits done on film, though, just ask me about mini sessions!

Bre is an adorable photographer that I met at a workshop a few years ago. Seeing as we met through film photography, it only made sense that I shoot her portraits on film. These were shot on my Canon EOS-3, using Kodak Gold 400 film, which was processed and scanned by The FIND Lab.
