Tristan's Senior Photos, West Linn Senior Photographer

I’m looking back at some of my photos from last year. Tristan looks so awesome in all of his Senior Photos. I love photographing in the woods and in nature in general. River pics are always fun to photograph, and Tristan's were no different! I love catching the sun as it starts to set - it creates such a beautiful effect with the light.

Don’t Miss Your 2025 Yearbook Senior Photo Deadlines!

Senior year is an exciting time, but it can also be busy with deadlines and to-dos, especially when it comes to your senior yearbook photo. I know how important it is to get that perfect shot in before the deadline, so I’ve compiled a list of senior photo deadlines for local schools to help you stay on track. I put general timeframes for some based on last year’s dates for schools that haven’t posted them yet.

Here’s the local deadlines:

• Canby High School: Mid-November 2024 (based on last year's date)

Fall is the perfect season to capture you with the beautiful colors of autumn as your backdrop. Whether you want vibrant leaves, an urban photoshoot in Portland, or something else, we can create a personalized session that highlights your unique style and personality.

What to Expect from Your Fall Senior Session

Once we schedule a date, we’ll meet for a short consultation to talk about ideas for your shoot. I love working together to plan something that feels authentic to who you are. We’ll go over outfit ideas (typically 2-3 looks) and locations that bring out the best in you. The shoot itself lasts up to 2 hours, giving us plenty of time to capture a variety of poses and vibes, from fun and carefree to classic and elegant.

Have a favorite hobby or sport? Great! Bring along props and I’ll help showcase your passion!

You can check out some examples of my previous work in my Senior Gallery. I can’t wait to help you create photos you’ll love for years to come!

Kate's Headshot Session, Portland Headshot Photographer

When it comes to professional headshots, few places hold as much weight and significance as a law firm. The need for portraying credibility, trustworthiness, and competence is paramount in the legal industry. I loved photographing all the lawyers at Sokol Larkin. They did an amazing job updating their website with everyone’s headshots on their profile pages.

Kate is a perfect example of the classic headshot - beautiful lighting, strong, confident poses, and, of course, trustworthiness.

Check out their site for more examples of their headshots.

Chloe's Senior Photos, West Linn Senior Photographer

Lovely Chloe looks so beautiful in all her photos and gave me the most wonderful smiles! I love her outfits, her blue dress matches so perfectly with the pretty greenery. She looks just like a model with her white and green outfit, and I love the flower pics too, they’re playful - there's nothing cheerier than sunflowers on a beautiful Oregon day! We were lucky to end our session in the beautiful field of tall grass. Check them out, they’re awesome!

Wyatt's Senior Photos, Lake Oswego Senior Photographer

Wyatt’s senior photos turned out great. He’s a runner at Lakeridge and was proudly sporting his Pacer shirt in several of the photos and we walked through the forest and got some great shots. A super nice guy. Enjoy the rest of your Senior year, Wyatt!

Liam's Senior Photos, Lake Oswego Senior Photographer

We had a great day for Liam’s Senior Photo shoot. I love the trestle pics and all the ones by the river. The sunlit water and greenery provided the perfect backdrop for a memorable photo session. I hope you enjoy the rest of your senior year, Liam. It was so fun photographing together and thank you for the pizza!

Josh's Senior Photos, Lake Oswego Senior Photographer

Josh’s senior photo shoot was taken at his house in Lake Oswego. They live on the lake in such a beautiful spot, so it was wonderful to have his photos there and very symbolic to have them taken at home. We were able to get his parents and his dogs in a shot too and finished off with his awesome D&D sweatshirt which says, “The Adventure Begins” on the back. That just seemed perfect for a senior! A fun photo shoot!
