a little bit about me ...
After spending more than 15 successful years working as a publicist for Inc. 500-sized businesses, my part-time photography hobby began consuming my time and passion. Rather than leaving my previous industry, I transferred my focus (if you'll pardon the pun) to using visual, rather than written, communication to promote my client's professional and personal brands.
Today, I am a commercial and lifestyle photographer known for making even the most reluctant subjects feel comfortable in front of my lens. When I'm not shooting in my sun-drenched studio on Oregon City's historic Main Street, I'm on location helping my clients craft contemporary, on-brand images to help grow their own bottom line.
I laugh a lot. I work too much. And I love the fact that my job allows me to work with such a vast range of people and businesses. Oh - and because I sat on the other side of the desk for so many years, hiring photographers to provide what I now offer - I am committed to making sure your project is completed on time. On budget. And with work that you'll be proud to share with your audience.

my people ...
My son Zach is finishing his degree in Statistics at Montana State University; daughter Alexis attends Laguna College of Art & Design and lives, breathes and eats art. And my husband - who works full time in the natural gas industry, also is a part-time race car driver and competes across the country, racing his vintage 1968 Corvette. To answer your questions: Yes, I LOVE racing. Yes, I do worry about him all the time. And yes, he has had more than one major accident. But he's walked away from each one (knock on wood).
my dream realized ...
For years I dreamed of finding a beautiful studio where I could work with clients, and that still was close to home. I lucked out when I discovered my space in Oregon City, in one of the state's oldest working buildings. It features a huge wall of brightly lit windows, high ceilings, and a separate dressing room - and now is outfitted with backdrops and lighting to help create gorgeous photos for my clients.
