I recently met Ashley Roda through a networking event and I’m absolutely thrilled to be partnering with her in the future. She’s bright and glowing and confident – all qualities that make it a joy to photograph her. Beyond that she’s incredibly motivated and that’s why I’ve chosen to work with her. If you’re considering a shoot with me and …
Business Headshot: Mini Sessions
I’m going to take the next while on the blog to showcase exactly what you’ll get out of the different headshot packages available with me, starting with the entry level Business Mini package. And since my husband needed a new headshot last month – and quickly – it was the perfect time to test out the new package. And if …
Headshots: Before & Afters
I have a new program coming up focusing on Portland business photos for those in the area that need quality photographs of themselves but don’t want to look stiff.

It’s probably a result of being one of three daughters in my own family and loving the female bond! …

What are the odds you’ll be on a magazine cover one day? If you’re anything like me, the answer is slim to none. I’m good with that. I’m not a supermodel nor do I want to be.
