These little humans are your everything. The truest loves you’ve ever known, the source of every gray hair on your head, and by far the best adventure yet.

Get photos that help you hold on to the memories.

Let’s capture the wonder, the magic, and the silliness (before they grow another couple inches).

WHETHER you're a
Soon-to-be-parent...

The part of parenting no one
(okay, everyone) warned you about?

They GROW every single day.

(know what I mean? Good, you’re in the right place.)

It’s like…

→ You look at pictures from a year ago and they’ve changed so much
→ You want to be able to remember all the little, funny phases they go through
→ You trust that the next stage will be good, but if you could push a button and hold onto this one for JUST a little longer…

Or even better:

If you could rewind time and experience those baby snuggles over and over again, you wouldn’t hesitate

(science hasn’t gotten quite that far yet).

Candid FAMILY photos
are the next BEST thing

Here’s what I mean by candid
(also known as lifestyle photography)

Whether we take a walk around Portland or spend some time together in your home, your family photo session will feel relaxed and easy. 

I’ll create a space where you and your family can interact the way you always do, but with added touches that help you look and feel your best. (Think prompts to get you laughing, outfit-planning help, and a focus on not just WHO you are, but WHERE you like to make memories together.)

Learn about the family photography experience….

You’re usually the one taking the photos.
This time, you deserve to be IN them.

“Rebecca has a way of capturing us
in a best moment”

Rebecca has a way of capturing us in a best moment when we’re all enjoying each other and having fun. I think it’s kind of her style to get those natural laughing moments from kids.”
- Jen

Working with kids is my superpower.
Not to toot my own horn…

Before I became a photographer, I was a pediatric nurse practitioner. That meant I had to learn how to work with kids in uncertain and sometimes scary situations. No one likes to be poked and prodded (especially kids). I learned to meet them where they’re at and build an honest rapport with them. Now, I bring that skill into every photo session. 


When your kids trust the person behind the camera, it’s so much easier to get genuine laughs and smiles out of them. And when you see that your babies are happy and comfortable during your session, it means you can feel happy and comfortable, too. Learn more about your Pediatric-NP-turned photographer…

What if SCHOOL pictures could look like this…

And what if they could be easier — and more fun — not just for the kiddos, but for parents and school directors?

Pssst. They can be.
