I am Whitney and my ultimate goal is to be the photographer you will remember for a lifetime. If you are looking for a person to show up, pose you and take some photos, I am probably not the right choice for you. If you are looking for a photographer to show up, tell bad jokes to your bridal party, meow at your dogs, run with your kids, and provide you with the most genuine and natural laughs and actions, let’s grab coffee and talk about your dream because that is the exact experience you will get choosing me as your storyteller.

Let’s go hiking for your engagement session. To the river for your bridal shoot. Let’s go to the beach for your family portraits. You know of this amazing tree down this one random back road that you would love to shoot by? Let’s go! You saw this maternity photo on Pinterest you just have to have? Girl we will make it happen. I climb trees. I sit down in rivers in my jeans to get the perfect water/portrait ratio. I chase sunsets. I love all sessions. Lifestyle? LOVE! You would prefer to be posed? Perfectly fine, I’ve got you. Shy behind the camera? Not when this session is over you won't be!

A tiny bit about where you might find me when I am not “working”: I will likely be at home in my “Cat Mom” sweatshirt, probably feeding my cats or trying to edit photos with them lying on my keyboard. All 5 of them. If you can't find me there, I might be adventuring with my husband to find new brick walls and cool staircases to use as local photo props. Or maybe we are driving around discovering new quaint coffee shops that I can bring my clients to for consults. We might be surfing the internet planning our next tropical excursion. Hawaii is my life. I wear a wave ring on my left hand next to my wedding ring to symbolize one of my absolute favorite places on earth. I could also be at my barn spending time with my horse, King.

Hawaii: This wouldn't be an accurate representation of myself if there wasn't a small section about Hawaii. We’ve traveled here time and time again. I hope to expand my business here in the future and spend part of the year in my own paradise. My heart is stretched between the PNW and these blissful islands. We spent our honeymoon in Hawaii and we were shamelessly the tourists that spied on every stray cat to make sure they were okay, scoped out every coffee shop on the island of Maui to find the best blended coffee, and ate at Bubba Gump Shrimp Company every chance we could.

If you are looking for a photographer to tell your story in a unique way that showcases you and what you are about, let me buy you coffee at one of the amazing local businesses I have found over the years and we can get to know each other.
