Your newborn baby
is a work of art
I'm glad you've stumbled into my little corner of the internet while looking for a Portland newborn photographer.
Most days you can find me with my hair in a messy bun, running to and fro keeping my four kiddos happy, photographing babies, editing, and wearing all the hats that keep things running smoothly.
I’m a mama via adoption and remarriage. So all together we’ve got a seventh grader, two 5th graders, and a 3rd grader running the roost.

Hi! I'm Katie
I have the greatest newborn photos of my son now!
I love how she captured his personality, specifically - his little smirk.
I loved the whole experience; it wasn’t stressful at all. We didn’t feel rushed or uncomfortable, and she was so gentle with my son. I will definitely be coming back for future family photos and, hopefully, another newborn shoot in the future!
