This senior mini session took place at Columbia Park in North Portland. We wandered among the trees and got some fantastic photos even with a short session! O is a busy senior who loves computers and technology. He was a natural in front of the camera!

G is a very busy teen! They are involved in many of the arts, like theater and singing. I didn’t make them sing while we were out in the park, or anything, but of course there was twirling. 🙂

What an epic senior photography session! I’ve lived in the Portland area for eleven years and have been to Vancouver plenty of times, but somehow had never been to the waterfront. And WOW, it was an amazing photography location! There was so many visual treats...

This senior photography session in Laurelhurst Park was a great combination of nature and hobbies. A is a super busy senior who plays the trumpet! I enjoyed creating some musician portraits with his instrument out in the park. And then I used my light as a background...

This was such a fun adventure session with A! It combined a few things she loves: rock climbing these cliffs at Lewis & Clark Park east of Portland, and this amazing fairy-style dress that also matched her hair. It had a beautiful twirl, so of course we had to...

How do you choose the location for your Portland senior photography session? I always want to know if there’s a special place – somewhere you’ve been a lot, somewhere that means a lot to you, and somewhere that can be at least a little interesting to...

M has been playing golf since she was a little kid, so it was natural to do her senior photos at a golf course! We were graciously allowed to be on the greens, escorted by one of the King City Golf Course managers. M is also into fashion, as you can tell by this...

Senior portrait sessions are SO MUCH FUN.(I say this every time…and I mean it every time.) This session with Zac was in inner SE Portland where there’s tons of graffiti. I love how colorful these scenes are! Some people may think that you have to dress up...

We did a fun senior photography session with Trinity at Amberglen park in Hillsboro! There was a lot of interesting and unique backgrounds around this park–sculpture, stone walls, a pond, a wooden bridge, and a lot of different plant life. As it was October, we...

This Portland senior photography session was EPIC. A huge part of that was this incredible venue, 45 East, which is an amazing club in Portland with all kinds of great looks. I was all heart-eyes at the whole place; I would have happily photographed there all day...

OBSESSED!! Grace is a musician and models too. I wanted to practice some dramatic rim lighting with the guitar. They came out perfectly–I am always thrilled when the image in my head actually appears in my camera!

This session, we focused on movement. The dramatic shapes of Keller Fountain was a perfect backdrop for us. It’s right in downtown Portland and I had never photographed there. The water has been off for awhile but I was glad, so that we could move around easily...
