I'm a transplant to Central Oregon (originally from Minneapolis, Minnesota; more recently from the SF Bay Area) and absolutely love it here!  Currently, I live in a small townhome in Eagle Crest with my rescue dog, Walter.  You'll probably see a lot of portraits of him ;) Walt's my guinea pig on lighting and backdrops, much to his dismay. (but to my delight, as he has a most expressive face!)

My mission is to provide photographic art of you, your family, your pets, your friends -- your loved ones!  that you treasure. I will work with you to design a portrait session, from clothing choices to location choices, to realize your dream result.  After the session, I will help you choose your absolute favorite images,  and we will create ART for you to enjoy every day.  On your walls, in an album, in a beautiful display case, in a montage created just for you.  I promise, you will have a lovely experience working with me because I am all about YOU.  Listening to your needs, your expectations, your wants and then together you and i go about creating the perfect display for your home.

I work mostly out of my home in Eagle Crest, but I am happy to come to your home, garden, park or office, as well. I serve the entire Bend/Redmond/Sisters area, and love to get out and explore new sights.  I offer the digital files, but feel it is a disservice if I don't help you create something long lasting -- a wall collection or album for example.

My specialties are:

- business branding sessions and business portraits

- family reunion sessions, family sessions

- senior/grad portraits

- pet portraits

- engagement sessions

- fine art maternity, newborn & baby taken in studio or on location

- some weddings & events

Whatever type of session you need, I will help you feel relaxed and comfortable so we can get beautiful, natural, & timeless images.I'll do my best to make it fun :) When you're ready, call me & let's talk. My cell:  541.598.6727. I will respond to your voice mail within 24 hours.

I have worked hard to build my artistry, which includes many hours of photographic instruction and conferences. I am a Certified Professional Photographer with PPA (Professional Photographers of America) and have been in business since 2007. I am also a very active volunteer to local charities & non profits, donating my time & talent to organizations I believe in. (the organizations dedicated to Christ get extra attention!) Please let me know if there's a cause you  would like to see me support. I love to share my gift with others.
