First impressions start here

A man with dark hair and a beard sitting in a modern office or library, wearing a light denim shirt, with a slight smile, and sitting next to a white table.

The session

Clean headshots and personality-forward portrait sessions designed to bring out your best, without any of the awkward. I give lots of direction so you never have to figure out what to do with your hands, and I keep things moving so nothing ever feels drawn out or uncomfortable. Every session includes your full gallery of high resolution images, color corrected and carefully culled. No picking from a limited selection, no stressing over what you might be missing. Just great photos that look like you.

  • Individual portrait sessions

  • Professional headshots

  • Creative and editorial portraits

  • Corporate and team headshots

  • Branding portraits for creatives and business owners

  • On location or in studio

Every session starts with a conversation. I want to know who you are, what you do, and what you're hoping to walk away with. That curiosity is what makes the images feel like you and not just a photo that could be anyone. The goal is always something you're actually excited to use.

Setting the Scene

A woman with blonde hair smiling in a modern office or coworking space with the word 'SEA' illuminated on the wall behind her.

Your space already says a lot about who you are. a studio full of color and texture or an office with a little personality, shooting where you work adds context that a plain backdrop could never.

The workspace

A young woman with dark brown hair smiling and walking on a city sidewalk during daytime. She is wearing a brown sleeveless top, white pants, gold hoop earrings, and a white shirt draped over her shoulders.

Natural light and a setting that feels like you. Portland has no shortage of beautiful spots. Tell me the vibe and I'll point you in the right direction, or take me to your favorite place.

about town

A clean, classic look wherever you are. I bring the studio to you with a portable backdrop, available in colors by request. Perfect for anyone who wants a polished result without coming to a studio.

backdrop

Sunlight streaming through sheer curtains into a minimalistic white room with a crumpled white sheet on the floor, a framed abstract artwork leaning against the wall, and white blocks and a pedestal around the space.

A private studio in NW Portland. a variety of backdrops, and just enough furniture to give your images some personality. Bring a few personal props if you'd like. one hour, 3 outfits, and a mix of settings.

THe STUDIO

I was just smiling ear to ear as I scrolled through each person’s stunning, glowing, photos. WOW!!!! I am speechless. These are the best headshots I have ever seen, and I have been in this industry for 21 years. Not to mention you moved so swiftly with such confidence, ease, and comfort.
