Are you looking for a photographer you can be confident in? I shot my first wedding more than 10 years ago! I mention this not to toot my own horn, but to give you reassurance that you are in good hands! With almost 200 weddings under my belt and years of experience shooting portraits and families I have gained the ability to handle just about anything you can throw at me with quiet confidence and deliver beautiful, creative images you'll treasure. 

I'm a mom to three daughters and two dogs. And I take photos! 

I love that photographs are so important to my clients, and I take the work that I am entrusted to very seriously. 

To forever capture your smile, your day of all days, your wee little one...is an amazing privilege and honor.

Someone once asked me to describe my photography in one word. It took me a while! But in the end I settled on "full". Kind of strange, I know. But I want my photos to be full of life... full of beauty... full of emotion and full of surprise. And I want you to be 'filled' when you see them.

I am based in the Portland, Oregon and Columbia River Gorge area but am available to travel anywhere.

My tag-line in life is 'always grateful'. As a follower of Jesus, I want to live my life with an attitude of gratefulness to Him, the giver of all good things.

Thanks for stopping by my little website. I hope we can talk soon.

I'm Karen.
