kim and brent

My dear friends Kim and Brent asked me to shoot their New Years Eve wedding.
I had a blast seeing them so happy and in love and reconnecting with college friends from UW.
What a great weekend.

I love this shot.
An old soul.

Oceanside

They say the cure for anything is salt water: tears, sweat or the sea.
9 times out of 10, I choose the sea.
This is why.

zihuatanejo, mexico


My lovely friend Nancy Barnes invited me to Mexico to help her shoot a wedding and also just to play and explore. It was so fantastic to get out of the country and dive into another country and culture and take in the beauty of the city and the people.
I am most definitely going to return with a big group of friends to explore some more. I loved it.

Hood River and Mosier


Bryant House

My awesome roommates and our awesome Christmas tree. I realize Christmas was a few weeks ago and I am late posting this, but how cute are we?

Fall leaves on Sauvie Island

More love for Sauvie Island and fall leaves.

Annie Bethancourt is one of the most talented people I know. Her songwriting is out of this world and her voice you can feel in your bones. Basically, she's amazing. Do yourself a favor and check out her music.

sauvie island


I love Sauvie Island so much. It's just a short drive from Portland, but it's a whole other world full of farms and fields and beauty. I'll take a day like this any day.
